Polylaminate capsules are being used in the packaging of high-end alcoholic beverages, such as wine and champagne. Polylaminate capsule have gained popularity in recent years due to their combination of quality, attractive cost, premium look, and ease of use.
Wine capsule (also referred to as “sparkling hoods”) are secondary closures that to cover either a champagne/ wine cork and wire hood; or a crown cap that is used to close sparkling juice beverages.
Polylaminate Capsules is made of two parts: the polylam skirt and the top disc, not like the one-part tin capsule.
Polylaminate foil is a composite material, a kind of “sandwich” made of aluminum and polyethylene, in which polyethylene is laminated with aluminum foil on its both sides; aluminum layer is pre-lacquer adapted to printing technology (silk-screen, hot stamp, flexo or rotogravure) and inks (UV or solvent based).
Polylaminate material is supplied in roll form, so the width is a key factor, the maximum width in Tiptop is 800mm.
Polylaminate for wine capsule is similar with the look and characteristics of tin, also malleable, and the key is at a greatly reduced price.
