Wines & Spirits

Wine has been the subject of affection and respect for millennia, the epitome of cultural and celebratory excess. The process has evolved in recent years to make this product, and similarly, its packaging has advanced at a much faster pace, making advancements with increased attention and creativity.

Packaging plays a role in the consumer's perception of products, from the glass bottle and cork to any new and innovative ones, such as bag-in-box, aseptic carton formats, and cans.

Quality control

Oxygen is kept out of the package to preserve flavor and quality. This also needs to be convenient for consumers to open; that’s why quality testing is essential during production.

Cork stoppers

Cork closure manufacturers, in relation to natural, synthetic, or engineered corks, can customize the closure on a wine-by-wine basis.

Even corks have to be coated correctly because the cover influences the friction when pulling it in or out of the bottle.

Equally, the cork will need to be kept sufficiently elastic so that the cork can expand and effectively seal wine held for any length of time. Corks should be stored properly, keeping them moist and not letting them dry out.

Testing factors such as extraction force and recovery after compression are essential for performance evaluation. These tests can be efficiently conducted using tensile and compression testing instruments from Presto Stantest Pvt. Ltd.

The need for reliable and precise force and torque measurements is greater than ever before. The use of high-quality test equipment is a requirement to help support compliance with current and future regulations.

Screw-cap closures

Wines sealed with screw caps are tested for the torque required during sealing and opening, including breaking the tamper-evident feature.

Manual torque testers are popular for use in production to take periodic sample testing of the bottles via the filling line or online machine material handling

Automated torque testers are more precise and consistent and thus are more applicable for detailed quality inspection in the lab later.

Consumer preference and packaging innovation

High-quality products manufactured to exacting standards provide a competitive advantage. It can be used to improve manufacturing processes. It also improves customer satisfaction and loyalty. And a company's reputation can be reinforced through adherence to international, national, or regional standards.

Physical testing for quality assurance and customer satisfaction

Each type of packaging format needs to be tested properly so that it can ensure a clean (no leakage and contamination) and comfortable user experience.

With the help of innovative testing solutions from Presto Stantest Pvt. Ltd., manufacturers can deliver the best quality, safety, and customer satisfaction.
