A Long History

The trusted supplier to Australia's food industry

For over four decades we have been trusted to supply the Australian food industry with huge range of herbs and spices. We are unique in that we can process the raw, whole herbs and spices into any configuration via our in-house cleaning, steam sterilization, kibbling, grinding and blending equipment, and then pack and ship it in minimal time. This delivers a fresher, more vibrant end product to our loyal customers.

Our decades of blending experience and flexibility of our in-house processing equipment mean we can convert our customers ideas into a commercial product in minimal time.

We have gained the trust of our customers by always focussing on quality and consistency, rather than price and have proudly invested for the long haul in manufacturing in Australia.

Quality Control

We don't take anything for granted

Frutex recieves raw herbs and spices from all over the world. Rather than purely rely on the assuarances of our suppliers, Frutex has all of it's raw materials independently tested. You can trust that there is no adulteration.

All of our manufacturing is done to HACCP standards. HACCP stands for 'Hazard Analyisis Critical Control Points' and is a food safety system originally created in the 1960s by NASA to ensure the safety of food to be consumed by astronauts.

Many food safety plans are based on the 7 principles of HACCP - which involve determining what the potential hazards are for a business, how to identify if a hazard is exceeding acceptable levels, and what to do in such situations.

Additionally, we also employ VACCP and TACCP standards.

VACCP stands for 'Vulnerability Assessment Critical Control Points'. This is a different type of food safety system used to identify vulnerabilities for a food business due to food fraud.

Food fraud includes incidents such as counterfeiting, adulteration, smuggling, stolen goods, dilution and mislabelling. All pose a risk as food being received may not be what it says it is and/or visibility could have been list throughout the supply chain process.

TACCP is similar to VACCP but standards for 'Threat Assessment Critical Control Points'. Threats are different to vulnerabilities as they're performed for idealogical rather than economical reasons.

Threats could include intentional contamination of food products, sabotage of the supply chain, and using food or drink items for terrorism or criminal purposes.
