Cork manufacturers are at an impasse. On the one hand, the market is growing and looking for flawless but moderately priced corks. On the other hand, there is also a demand for cork alternatives that ensure a stable growth and increasing sales. Since screw caps can be closed quickly and mass produced, aluminum screw cap closures are optimum for filling this gap in the market. In this case, the increasing demand for aluminum screw cap closures allows manufacturers to quickly expand their offerings of several 100 million caps per year.The business economics speak for themselves. Compared with the prices for medium-size corks, aluminium closures can by all means hold their own. Besides the corks themselves, companies are also able to do without the heat shrink capsules and the shrink capsule machinery. The closure rate is 3,000 to 5,000 bottles per hour.
Some brand name wines that use MALA aluminum screw cap closures and can be found in wine shops throughout Germany. |

| The model LC 30 x 60 mm is a LongCap variation with the largest amount of space available for side decoration, thus lending the bottle an impressive design. The LC 30 x 60 has gained international acceptance and can be delivered with a Saran-film-tin liner too. Because of its large market share, it is very probable that the BVS bottle finish will also be standardized. |
