On the occasion of Pro Wine in Düsseldorf (18-20 March), the international trade fair for wines and spirits, we analyze the benefits of lacquered aluminium for beverage.
According to a research conducted by Euromonitor and reported by EAFA (read the press release), since 2012 the wine producers have increasingly preferred aluminium closures. Currently, the 30% of the global market of bottled wine uses aluminium closures.
The report demonstrates that “aluminium closures are continuing to show strong advantages over other wine closure types”, as said by Guido Aufdemkamp, Executive Director of EAFA and among the promoters of Turn 360° Campaign.
Why the beverage market is increasingly using aluminium closures?
Aluminum closures are practical, 100% recyclable, the perfect ally for aroma and taste preservation. In addition, beverage producers can make their products really stand out with a highly personalized and graphically captivating decoration of the aluminum capsules..
The advantages of lacquered aluminium for the production of aluminium closures
Thanks to its innate properties, aluminium is the perfect material for the manufacture of bottle closures for water or soft drinks, wine, liquor, oil, vinegar or other products.
Coating gives aluminiun particular properties such as surface cleanliness, resistance to sterilisation and/or corrosion, enhanced appearance.
Italcoat has developed a single coating system for low capsules and a double coating system for high capsules, with the inner side coating to ensure the liner adhesion.
