The main difference lies in the carrier used for each range:

Natural Range (MPG / Halal): Uses MPG (monopropylene glycol) as the carrier, offering multiple advantages including non-flammable properties and heat stability – making it easy for transportation and safe for production.

Beverage Range (Alcohol / Organic Compliant): Features ethanol as the main carrier, providing a clean flavour profile and easy solubility. These flavours are approved by the ACO for use in certified organic products, and ideal for beverages.

Oil Soluble Range: Uses triacetin and miglyol carriers, perfect for chocolate, popcorn, baked goods, and protein blends.

ESG Range (Concentrated): These are our concentrated flavours (2 - 10 Fold) designed to decrease carrier transfer but also reduce consumption, packaging, transport & storage! You can also use them where you would usually use powdered flavours in order to keep dosage low.

Our flavours suit all Food & Beverages applications, including Protein, Dairy, Bakery, and Confectionery. We boast an extensive range of 500+ SKUs specifically adapted to the ANZ market (including native bushfruits).

Yes! We offer ESG matching and can help improve existing formulations to achieve a cleaner label.

In most cases we can still get you there:

• Search by taste – The profile you're after may exist under a more general flavour name. Type it into the search bar; it also searches every flavour's description.

• Combine flavours – The right combination of two or more of our existing flavours can often create the exact profile you're looking for.

• Custom development – Our NPD team can create it for you. Custom flavours carry a higher MOQ – contact us at info@metarom.com.au for an accurate MOQ and details.

Yes, some flavours are simply a blend of two or more of our existing flavours. So if you can't find a dedicated flavour guide for the profile you're after, the right combination of our flavours may well create it. Email us at info@metarom.com.au or submit a general inquiry and our flavourists will recommend the right combination for your application.

No, we have replaced traditional powder flavours with liquid concentrated flavours specifically designed for powder applications. This innovative approach offers several significant advantages:

• Organic compliant & clean label – Meet the highest quality standards
• Extended shelf life & minimal storage – MOQ starting at just 8kg (1 drum)
• Better value for money – More cost-effective than powder alternatives
• Easy to use – Simply pour 0.1% to 0.5% liquid onto your powder and mix until the liquid is homogeneously dispersed

All our codes consist of three letters and four digits:

• 1st letter: A – Australia (country of manufacture)
• 2nd letter – The carrier used: M = MPG, A = Alcohol (i.e. Ethanol), T = Triacetin (or Miglyol)
• 3rd letter – The first letter of the flavour name (e.g. C = Caramel, Coconut, Chocolate, Cream, etc.)
• 4 digits – Unique flavour identifier

Example: AMV0088 • A = Australia • M = MPG (carrier) • V = Vanilla • 0088 = Unique flavour code
