Some products are highly demanding in terms of storage and require special conditions and care. Such exceptionally sensitive products include wine, where production method and storage conditions have a significant impact on the final taste and quality of the drink. Assistance in the proper storage of wine bottles is provided by Elkom Trade, a manufacturer of mesh containers for wine and champagne. The oldest archaeological evidence prove that the beginning of production of wine by people is dated back to around 5,500 BC. For over 7,000 years of history, people have been improving the proces of production of wine to extract its best taste. To obtain its unique taste, wine requires time and appropriate storage conditions. Thanks to aging, wine takes on a deeper flavor so appreciated by connoisseurs.

Time for aging

It is not without reason that the wine maturation process is called aging, because wine bottles should be stored in a lying position. This is especially important in the case of bottles closed with a cork, because the liquid should be in contact with it at all times. If this does not happen, the cork may dry out over time and break the seal, which will lead to oxidation and spoilage of the wine.

For peace of mind

Elkom Trade offers a wide range of mesh containers dedicated for storage and transport of wine and champagne. By using solutions from an experienced manufacturer, you can be sure that alcohol bottles are properly stored at every stage of production and transport. Moreover, the solutions offered by the manufacturer are consistent with the principles of a circular economy because they are reusable and their use eliminates the need of use of disposable packaging and other materials. Ultimately, each container can be 100 percent recycled – metal can be scrapped and PP Plates can be recycled into regranulate. Elkom Trade provides a comprehensive regeneration service for mesh containers, thanks to which the regenerated products are as durable as brand new models.

Optimized space

The manufacturer’s mesh containers guarantee both the safe transport of full bottles to cellars and warehouses, and optimize the limited area of vineyards, thus helping to minimize costs. Depending on the model, one container can hold up to 600 bottles, which means a load capacity of up to 1,000 kg. Selected models from the Elkom Trade product portfolio can be stacked up to 6 levels. Moreover, they are adapted to modern loading and unloading machines and robots. The containers have been certified for safe stacking and load capacity, so when not in use they can be folded and stacked up to 17 levels..

Use without secrets

Mesh containers produced by Elkom Trade, intended for storing wine and champagne bottles, are very easy to use. They can be easily folded or unfolded in a short time, and the divided front facilitates access to the contents of the basket. The durability of the containers is ensured by a galvanized or hot-dip galvanized coating, which means that they are not getting damaged or dirty like their wooden counterparts. This protection significantly extends the life of the products, which with proper use can last up to 15 years.
