This year, the wine packaging technology will soon be refurbished. Australia’s Fulong Wines recently launched their patented packaging products. The stopper is not a cork stopper but is made of a special material with a lot of holes that are invisible to the naked eye, allowing the wine to breathe naturally. Experts predict that this kind of cork is a breakthrough in the traditional innovation of the wine industry. Due to its numerous advantages, more similar products will appear in the market. The toy design company ToyRatlmagery in Sonoma County, California, USA, has set up an aluminum bottle complex. It is expected that a new wine packaging concept, an aluminum wine bottle, will be introduced to the market soon. Aluminum was once considered a low-grade packaging material, but aluminum packaging is popular in the beer industry. So far no wine bottle made of aluminum has appeared in the world. A manager at ToyRatimagery believes that their aluminum wine bottles will certainly make a big splash in the wine industry. New aluminium manufacturing technology has made aluminum in any size and shape. The texture of the future aluminum wine bottle will not be as light and thin as many soda cans. It is a high-grade product that can replace alternative packaging such as plastics, paper boxes and the like. Of course, compared with glass bottles, the biggest benefit of aluminum bottles is that they are not easily broken. The company is currently working with various experts to develop standard bottle-shaped and sized aluminum wine bottles. In recent years, the carton-packed wine market has developed rapidly. At present, the carton-loaded wines in the UK market have accounted for 8.3% of the light wine market, an increase of 48% over 1997. Hedge Valley Wines, one of Australia's 6th largest red wine producers in the picturesque Moki Valley in New South Wales, Australia, has developed 250ml carton-packed wines. This unique and practical packaging can completely block oxygen, so as to ensure its freshness and flavor, prevent the decline of wine quality, extend the shelf life of wine, and is deeply loved by consumers. In addition, the packaging is also easy to store and is not easily broken. It is very convenient and ideal for barbecues, picnics, parties, etc. This novel packaging will win very good sales for the company's wine. Gallo also launched the first carton-packed wine. Polyester bottled wines are increasingly appearing on the European market and have been recognized by some consumers. WESTBRIDGE, a professional polyester bottle manufacturer, has full confidence in the market prospect of packaging wines with PET bottles. The company's 2-litre packaged wine was sold for a year and all aspects of the report exceeded expectations. Tests have confirmed that the polyester bottle is basically protected against oxygen transmission during the one year or so preservation period. The 2-liter bottle test confirmed that within one year, less than 10 ppm of oxygen permeability was detected in the controlled shelf, which is much less than 500 ppm under normal storage conditions. In addition, the cost of molds for producing glass bottles in small batches is almost 10 times that of polyester bottles. Merchants rarely have the choice of bottle shape and color for packaging of different products. Polyester bottles can be processed in quantities of 50,000 such small batches. If millions of bottles are processed each year, the cost of the molds is very low (a total of 10,000-1.3 million US dollars). Wines packed in glass bottles have many “short boards†that are difficult to overcome, such as inconvenience in carrying and fragility. If PET packaging is used, there will be no trouble in this regard.
Some companies have introduced seamless cans of wine, special materials made of twisted boxed wine with taps, are easy to open products. The Hong Kong Kee Kee Wine Group made a big fuss about packaging and put forward the slogan of "revolutionary packaging and keeping fresh to the last cup." Hutchison Wines has adopted a unique bottle design. After opening, the packaging can cut off the contact with the air. With the opening method of the faucet, the opening of the faucet can be ensured after each opening, so as to keep the taste of the wine fresh.
Seamless canned wines are available on the market
