Study of alternative products in our production process, such as the use of natural surface treatment products with BIO certification.

Leveraging the principles of HACCP implemented for many years within the organization, implementation of the ISO 22000 standard for Food Safety.

Internal structure

Feasibility study of a treatment for the reduction and/or elimination of sensory deviations and their potential impact on the internal structure of the cork stopper after such treatment.

Bottling with different densities

In collaboration with one of our clients.

We study the correct technical functionality during bottling and the sensory evolution of the wine based on the density of the cork.

Carbon footprint
 

We calculated the carbon footprint of our stoppers from the forests to the end of their useful life.
