Company History

Company History

QUSAC decaf purchased the assets of a failed venture in 1995. After one year of re-engineering the facility the company began producing decaffeinated coffee. Since that time, we have evolved into an industry leader, providing complete solutions and sustainable products for big and small roasters alike in both mainstream and speciality sectors.

Since 2012, QUSAC Decaf has been commercializing our proprietary Target Specific Extraction Technology (TSET). We named the process DFE (Designed For Environment). The technology development was driven by our quest to be the most eco-friendly decaf facility in the world.

QUSAC Decaf has continuously invested in new technologies to optimize value for clients. QUSAC Decaf is presently the only decaf company in the world to focus its production on low environmental impact practices. Located in North America, we take advantage of renewable energy, recovery of by-products, recycling and up-cycling to reduce discharge to landfill.

In 2014, the Fleming family entered into agreements to acquire all share in the decaffeination company. The transaction made QUSAC the only decaffeination company in North America which is solely focused on the extraction of caffeine from coffee. QUSAC is a company focused on giving our customers services and products that integrate seamlessly into their business work flows.
