With more than 30 years’ experience in helping customers extract and concentrate flavours, Flavourtech will become Aquaporin’s partner in the aroma and coffee extraction segments. Flavourtech’s GM, Leon Skaliotis, announced the collaboration locally saying “We see great potential in partnering with Aquaporin due to their unique technology which will enable us to further assist our customers to provide higher quality products and keep differentiating themselves from their competition. This is definitely a step in the right direction, a step forward in technologies and to a bright future with better flavours, naturally.”
Aquaporin’s CEO, Matt Boczkowski, also commented on the new partnership saying “Based on their excellent reputation, knowledge and strong customer relations built over decades in the F&B industry, Flavourtech is an ideal partner to bring Aquaporin’s natural concentration technology to the market. With this new technology, Flavourtech will be able to deliver a new and innovative solution to their global customer base that pushes the boundaries of aroma and flavour retention.”
Creating great tasting natural aromas without heat or pressure
Aquaporin’s natural concentration technology is a revolutionary method of concentrating natural aromas without using traditional heat and pressure processes. In this way, customers in the F&B industry can produce highly concentrated, natural aroma concentrates bursting with original flavours and characteristics of everything from fruit and berries to coffee.
Until now, aroma concentrates have mainly been produced using thermal evaporation which is both energy-consuming and results in a loss and change of flavour and fragrance. Aquaporin’s natural concentration technology uses nature’s own water filtration process to extract water from raw ingredients, and the system incorporates the company’s decade-long experience in application development to bring a powerful and easy-to-use solution to customers.
Building a long-term collaboration
Flavourtech have the rights to market Aquaporin systems and membranes exclusively in the coffee aroma and flavour segments as well as for coffee and tea extracts on a project basis. As part of the agreement, a pilot system will be delivered allowing Flavourtech to further develop this new technology and create next level aromas with their customers.
