fusionchef by Julabo - The Brand

In 1970, French scientist Dr. Bruno Goussault was looking for a way to optimize the cooking process for meat and decided on the newly rediscovered cooking under vacuum technique Sous Vide. To precisely set the water temperature for the cooking process, he used a laboratory circulator made by JULABO. Thanks to the precision of this device, Goussault was able to develop and optimize the Sous Vide technology further. Together with gourmet chef Georges Pralus, Bruno Goussault introduced the Sous Vide technology and its advantages together with the JULABO laboratory circulator into the sophisticated restaurant kitchen in 1974.

Due to the increased demand for laboratory circulators for restaurant kitchens, JULABO had the idea to implement the strengths and advantages of the laboratory device in a circulator tailored to the requirements and needs of the restaurant trade. The result is the fusionchef by JULABO brand with the two circulators PEARL and DIAMOND.

In spring of 2010, the Premium Sous Vide Collection by fusionchef was introduced at the FHA in Singapore and offered in 12 different variants for the professional kitchen. In addition to the circulators and the bridge variant, the Sous Vide cooker is also available complete with water bath in sizes S to XL. Size XS was added as well. The high-quality fusionchef equipment is penetrating top and star-rated restaurants worldwide and is further developed in close collaboration with renowned chefs and optimized for the requirements of professional kitchens.
