Synlait assisting The a2 Milk Company with USA recall

04/05/2026 08:31 NZST, MKTUPDTE

Synlait Milk Limited (Synlait) is working with The a2 Milk Company to assist its voluntary recall of three batches of a2 Platinum USA label infant milk formula due to the presence of cereulide.

Synlait manufactured the affected product in compliance with all relevant standards at the time. The recall was initiated after cereulide was detected through additional testing that was undertaken after new directives from New Zealand’s Ministry for Primary Industries.

The product was discontinued prior to the recall.

Synlait takes a non-negotiable approach to food safety and quality and reported the cereulide detection as soon as it was known. Synlait supports the decision to voluntarily recall the product and is urging any customers with concerns to contact The a2 Milk Company.

The recall is not expected to impact Synlait’s financial result.
