Flavours Developed Around Your Product

Our in-house flavour development team works alongside manufacturing and product development to create flavours built around your product, audience and brief.

From developing new flavour profiles to refining existing formulations, we combine specialist flavour expertise with UK-based manufacturing to take concepts from initial brief through to production.

Flavour Excellence

Rather than treating flavour as an ingredient choice, we develop each profile around the complete vaping experience.

From the first inhale through to aroma, longevity and coil performance.

From your brief to a production-ready flavour

How we do it

Our flavour development process combines your product requirements with specialist flavour expertise, testing and refinement to create a formulation ready for manufacture.

1
01

Understand your brief

We start with your product, target customer and flavour direction. Whether you have a detailed specification, an existing flavour to refine or simply an idea, we'll establish what the finished profile needs to achieve.

2
02

Develop & refine

Our flavour specialists develop the profile, balancing taste, aroma and performance. Samples can then be reviewed and refined until the flavour is right for your product.

3
03

Test & prepare for production

Once approved, the formulation is prepared for manufacture with the quality controls and technical requirements needed to reproduce it consistently at scale.

Developed with production in mind from day one.

Because flavour development and manufacturing sit under one roof, we can consider how your formulation will perform in the finished product throughout the development process.

Our Safety Pledge

Safety isn't an afterthought in product development.

Our flavours contain 99.73% less harmful chemicals than traditional tobacco alternatives.*

We take a responsible approach to formulation, ingredient selection and manufacturing, continually reviewing the products we make against evolving evidence, standards and regulatory requirements.

*Research conducted by Essentra Laboratories, and independent study.
Comparing levels of TSNAs (Tobacco Specific Nitrosamines), VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) and Carbonyl Emissions. Products Tested: 3 traditional cigarette brands, AFS Modern Flavours in Ready to Vape form.

Careful Ingredient Selection

We assess the ingredients used in our formulations and make considered choices based on product performance, quality and safety.

Proactive Ingredient Changes

If new evidence, guidance or regulatory requirements affect an ingredient we use, we're prepared to review formulations and make changes where necessary.

Continuous Improvement

Our approach doesn't stop once a formulation reaches production. We continue to review our products, processes and standards as knowledge and requirements develop.

Product-Specific Development

Different nicotine products have different formulation and performance requirements. Our development process takes those differences into account rather than applying the same approach to every product.
