For many years the glass bottle and cork have been the prevalent solution in wine sealing. However, issues with cork taint and access to cork of acceptable quality have led to wine providers exploring other options.  

Screwcaps and liners are proven wine sealing technology. Using a specialized OenoSeal™ liner ensures excellent oxygen barrier performance, no negative impact on wines prone to reductive notes, and prevention of volatile sulphur compounds (VSCs) – all from a technology that is less expensive than cork. The performance features of Selig’s OenoSeal™ liners include:

• Preserves the organoleptic qualities of wine: Since OenoSeal™ removes the use of cork, wines that use our liner do not develop TCA, the molecule responsible for contaminating or tainting wine, which affects how the wine will taste and smell. Additionally, brand owners will achieve cost savings by not using cork. 
• Guarantees excellent aromatic protection: OenoSeal™ liners protect your wine brand by delivering on freshness and flavor, both critical factors in a wine customer’s experience. 
• Controls oxygenation: Allowing wine to age means considering its living dimension. OenoSeal™ preserves the volume of air that is essential and specific to each wine. 
• Respects wine integrity: OenoSeal™ liners are particularly suitable for all kinds of aging wines, respecting its integrity without any variation in time.
