Implementing Vinolok™
Our Customer Service and Technical Support are ready to help you with Vinolok™ implementation.
How it works
The Vinolok™ closure is a part of a system consisting of a closure a bottle and a capsule. The capsule (1) ensures the safety of the system during storage and transport. The glass closure (2) is made from high quality glass and is resistant against mechanical damage. The sealing ring (3) is made of EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Copolymer) by DOW and contains no phthalates or allergens. The closure can be inserted into the bottle (4) manually or by a semi or fully automatic bottling machines.

Recommended bottles
All major bottle manufacturers offer wide range of products that are compatible with Vinolok™. Our Customer Service and Technical Department are ready to help you find a solution for your final packaging.
Bottling
Depending on the production, select the option which caters to your custom needs. For a small production, we recommend you to opt for a manual application of the Vinolok™ closures. Major producers of bottling lines offer solutions in the form of a semi-automated production line. Full automation offers the choice of implementation into the existing lines or the free-standing machines.
