For quite a long time even though
they fulfil all requirements,
aluminium screw-off bottle caps
had not really been accepted by
bottlers and consumers. However,
nowadays they are becoming
increasingly popular.
To meet the requirements of this development
Meyer Seals has various seal inserts on offer to
satisfy customers’ individual needs.
The ALKOzell / paper, tin, Saran disc was
developed especially for use in aluminium
screw-off caps for wine bottles, this combining
the advantages of the soft tin-foil (adapts
itself to the mouth of the bottle optimally)
with the excellent barrier properties of the
Saran foil. As a premium product it is put to
use especially in bottle caps used for high
quality wines.
Saranex / ALKOzell / Saranex discs represent an
optimal combination of economy and sealing
qualities. Wine bottlers in Europe and the USA
have been using this type of seal successfully
for quite a number of years.
Industrial Engineer
Libia Garay:
„We have developed an alternative
insert for aluminium screw-off bottle
caps for wine bottles no longer
containing chlorinated hydrocarbons.“
To meet customers’ wishes for coloured inserts
we now offer dyed Saranex / ALKOzell / Saranex.
With the use of new extrusion and proportioning technologies, Meyer Seals has been able
to replace the use of dyed foils (high minimum
purchase quantity) with the application of a
dyed extruded layer. Our own company
procedure enables us to satisfy our customers’
requirements in a flexible manner. The colour
of the inserts can be adapted individually to
match the colour of the cap, the container, the
filling or the bottler’s “Corporate Colours”.
This means that a Saranex disc dyed silver is
almost identical to an ALKOzell / paper, tin,
Saran disc.
With this procedure the colouring is applied
beneath the Saranex layer. The taste of the
wine is not affected in any way at all due to
there being no contact with the filling.
The barrier material put to use in Saran or
Saranex is Polyvinylidenchlorid (PVdC), a
polymer related to Polyvinylchlorid (PVC). The
relationship to PVC has always been a reason
for discussions concerning possible health risks.
For this reason we developed an alternative
PVdC-free disc, the EVOH / ALKOzell / EVOH
disc. The properties of this disc especially
regarding its oxygen permeability are by no
means inferior to the well tried and tested
Saranex lamination.
