To assure the best performance of each cork: this is the mission of Amorim Cork, leader company on international and Italian market for the sale of bottling caps. If cork is considered by experts as the best raw material for wine bottles’ closing than alternative aluminum or plastic ones, the possibility of running in the so-called “cork taint”, due to the presence of “trichloroanisole”(TCA) natural compound may still raise suspicions. In its Research & Development department the company has practically beaten TCA through prevention and care measures, starting from cork collection up to the single caps’ processing. In fact it has developed a system of individual analysis for each cap through gas chromatography and is studying a new cap selection technique by X-ray through CAT (Computerized Axial Tomography) or Terahertz quantum cascade laser, to reach sensory perfection.
