Procork finds a route

Procork finds a route to market

Dr Gregor Christie’s brainchild, the PROCORK ̫ membrane disc, has found a significant distributor to the Australian and New Zealand wine industries. Vintners Imports Pty Ltd, a subsidiary of Vinpac International, will market this Australian invention that makes natural and technical wine corks less susceptible to flavour modification, TCA cork taint (TCA) and oxidation. Vinpac is also Australia’s largest distributor of Stelvin screw caps, natural cork and other alternative seals, so it will be interesting to watch its development of this product in a very competitive portfolio.
