The best of natural beech wood

Our unique dry distillation process enables us to produce the most important aroma chemicals from beechwood smoke directly and use them in our products. proFagus, a traditional manufacturer of high-quality beech wood products, has been producing purified smoke condensates in addition to these flavour formulations for more than 20 years.

Our key to success

proFagus is the world’s only producer specialising in the production of aroma blends from beech wood and beech wood smoke condensates using the retort process – its Pure Smoke® products for smoking and its smoke flavours are, therefore, perfectly tailored to the preferences of European tastes.

Our pure Smoke and Beechsoul products are versatile and can be used in numerous applications. Our products are key to establishing four product characteristics: taste, colour, texture and preservation. Depending on the desired characteristic, we can customise these features in a targeted manner and make our products in the pure Smoke series specifically suitable for food production.

Liquid Smoke Pure Smoke®

Although smoking using conventional smoking techniques such as smouldering and friction smoke, as well as the vapour smoking process, is still in use and popular in the food industry, these smoking techniques are inferior to sustainable production with liquid smoke on a large scale in the long-term.
