1 WHAT INSPIRED THE FOUNDING OF FLAVOURTECH AND HOW HAS THE COMPANY EVOLVED SINCE ITS INCEPTION?
Flavourtech is an Australian company that started over 40 years ago when our founder, a winemaker, was sent from Adelaide to the town of Griffith, Australia's largest wine/grape growing region to set up a winery. When the winery was set up, he found problems where all the grapes would come in together and he did not have the processing capacity to process all the grapes into wine immediately. He was looking for something that could desulfite grape juice. At that time, one of Australia's premier research organizations, the CSIRO was working on a particular technology called the Spinning Cone Column (SCC). He heard about it and approached them to see if they could desulfite grape juice. It worked and he decided to purchase the technology and commercialize it. That is how Flavourtech started with its entry in the market in the wine industry.
2 FLAVOURTECH TECHNOLOGY SEEMS TO REVOLUTIONIZE THE EXTRACTION AND CONCENTRATION PROCESS IN THE F&B INDUSTRY. COULD YOU ELABORATE ON HOW YOUR TECHNOLOGY WORKS AND ITS ADVANTAGES OVER TRADITIONAL METHODS?
It became very apparent to us that, even though the (SCC) technology was first developed for the wine industry to desulfite grape juice, it had broader applications that customers wanted. It could remove alcohol from wine and beer, but it could also capture natural volatile flavours from a variety of products. One of the first new applications we discovered was coffee. Without hesitation, our founder and his associates travelled to Brazil to engage with coffee companies, marking the beginning of our business in the coffee industry. Today, our coffee and tea business accounts for approximately 60 percent of our global operations.
