Aluminum closures represent the modern way of closing bottles and play a major part in preserving the quality of the wine, its branding and visual impact, but also wine’s environmental footprint. Aluminum closures offer a lot of creative possibilities for the design of a bottle. They are also suitable both for glass and pet bottles.
