Industry
Beverages
Cork stoppers, technical closures and bottling systems for wine, spirits and premium beverages.
The wine and spirits industry is where cork first proved itself as a technical material. Our calibrated granules feed the stopper lines that seal billions of bottles worldwide — natural, hypoallergenic and sustainable, with the sealing performance the category has relied on for centuries.
Cork's place in the beverage industry is not accidental. Its cellular geometry seals the bottle without contaminating the liquid, its elasticity accommodates temperature and pressure cycles across decades of cellaring, and its sustainability story — a bark harvested without felling the tree — aligns naturally with the values of premium wine and spirits producers.
We supply the stopper industry with calibrated granulates and raw cork planks, classified by density and granulometry to match the specification of each stopper line. Traceability back to the harvest cycle is standard, and FSC certification is available on request.
