A new material developed by fusing the purest part of cork (suberin) and synthetic cells, then tested for over 10 years.

Altec corks are absolutely symmetrical, perfectly consistent yet totally natural in appearance.

Retains optimal gaseous interchange, known to be key to the wine aging process.

Altec cork's dust content is 10 times less than that of conventional corks reducing bottling line maintenance.

Superior sealing performance allowing bottles to be stored horizontally immediately after corking.

Proven in tests to be 100% leak-proof, without wine travel, at a pressure of 2 bars.

Easy to extract with any cork remover.

Proven in 10 years of testing to leave no off-taste or off-odors.

Resolutely homogenous surface, with neither holes nor defects on any portion of the cork's sides and ends.

Smooth surface is ideal for intricate branding - ours have a nice grape cluster illustrated.

Imprinted with grape cluster design

NOT recommended for use in hand held corkers.
