PRODUCT DETAILS

Aluminum sparkling wine caps are mainly used in the production phase of sparkling wines (e.g. Champagne, Prosecco, Cava, etc.), especially during the secondary fermentation in the bottle (traditional method). Its core functions include:

- High-pressure sealing: resistance to 6-8 bar pressure inside the bottle (about 3 times that of a normal wine bottle), preventing CO2 leakage.

- Temporary protection: isolation from oxygen and contaminants during secondary fermentation and aging, to be replaced by an official cork + metal cage after bottling.

- Adaptation to automated production lines: aluminum caps are easy to mechanize and increase production efficiency.

Specifications & Structure of Sparkling Wine Caps:

Parameters

Specification Details

Diameter

29mm (international standard), suitable for champagne bottle tops (slightly larger than wine bottle tops).

Height

15-20mm (higher than normal caps), to increase pressure resistance.

Material

3105/8011 aluminum alloy (high-strength, corrosion-resistant), thickness about 0.25-0.30mm.

Sealing structure

- Lining material: food grade PE or PVC gasket, resistant to high pressure and acidic environment.

- Edge Roll Seal: Mechanical press fit to ensure air tightness.

Surface treatment

Mostly plain or simply embossed (due to the temporary cover), a few printed with winery code or batch information.

Application of Sparkling Wine Caps:

Sparkling Wine Types

Application characteristics

Champagne (traditional method)

Use only during the production phase, replacing the cork after 15-36 months of aging.

Prosecco (in tank)

Partly direct finalization with aluminum cap (elimination of the transfer step).

Asti (primary fermentation)

Aluminum caps are used throughout, due to the short fermentation period (approx. 1 month) and the low pressure (4-5 bar).

Natural sparkling wine

Uncoated aluminum cap + biodegradable gaskets, certified organic.

Non-alcoholic sparkling drinks

Modeled after traditional sparkling wine packaging, with lower pressure requirements in the aluminum cap (2-3 bar).
