Our expertise
A unique extraction technology
Based on an infusion process, Rouages’ unique technology allows us to obtain extracts without chemical solvents and without evaporation phase while preserving the true aromatic richness of the fresh plant, spices and fruits.
This innovative process guarantees that our infusions retain the full aromatic spectrum (taste and smell) of the raw materials used.
Simple, specific or complex infusion, our process allows to extract from a raw material a specific aromatic profile or to combine within the same infusion the aromatic compounds of different raw materials.
In addition to this technical know-how of extraction and balancing of flavors, our knowledge of food matrices allows us to develop natural, additive-free and healthy finished products.
With this expertise, the Rouages team will help you find the best solutions for all your projects.
Complementary know-how
