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.
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. |
Top | lithographic printing / embossing / UV printing / hot foil / silk screen |
Side | four colors offset printing / embossing / hot foil / silk screen printing |
- Completely airtight, zero oxygen permeation
- Pressure resistance 6-8 bar, no risk of deformation.
- Cost efficiency Low unit price (approx. 0.1-0.3 USD/pc), suitable for large quantities.
- Environmentally friendly 100% recyclable, low carbon emissions
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). |
