Application science

Start with
your product.

A flavour is finished only when it works in the product. Lux creates, applies and evaluates liquid and powder flavours in the systems where they must perform.

Inside the application lab

Performance is judged in the finished product.

The Lux team evaluates flavour character alongside processing, base interactions, sweetness, acidity, dosage, stability and aftertaste—then refines the system until it works as a whole.
