Microtech Granulate Corks

Microtech is an affordable, failsafe, TCA-free cork stopper for larger production, value-oriented wines. Each Microtech stopper is composed of high-quality granulated cork sourced exclusively the same top quality wood we use to make our luxury-grade natural cork stoppers. Produced at our new, specially designed facility, Microtech incorporates a revolutionary process to remove volatile aromas, resulting in a closure that is visually flawless and sensory neutral.

“While we are primarily known for our luxury-class corks, we have many client wineries that require high-quality stoppers for their lower-tier wines. That’s why we brought our Microtech line of stoppers to the US. These closures are recyclable, biodegradable and produced only from our own natural raw material. They offer superb elasticity, perfect airtightness and excellent sensory performance.”

Here are some of the key attributes that distinguish Microtech from its competitors:

• • Controlled Sourcing ‑ We only use wood purchased by our principals for our luxury-tier corks.
  • Aged, Cured and Monitored ‑ Our wood is aged for 12-18 months on site in special structures.
  • Purity ‑ Only pure, high-quality interior cork wood is used. All hardwood from bark and cambium is removed.
  • 98% Cork ‑ Microtech closures are formed with a minimum of binders.
  • Eco-Friendly – All waste wood is committed to cogeneration. No petroleum fuels are used.
  • Laser Printing – As with our natural corks, all Microtech closures are laser printed.
