Silicone corks

Stop worrying about leaks, crumbling corks, and the spoilage of your precious spirits during storage. Silicone corks and stoppers are the modern, professional solution for every home brewer or producer demanding hygiene and an absolute seal. Unlike natural corks that degrade over time, silicone offers a permanent and secure solution.

At Vaza.gr, we select stoppers that ensure:

• Certified Food Safety: Made from certified food-grade silicone that is chemically neutral, ensuring it never alters the taste or aroma of your wine, oil, or tsipouro.
• Zero Leakage: The elasticity of the conical shape creates a hermetic seal, protecting your contents from oxidation and external contaminants.
• Economy & Utility: They are 100% washable and reusable. They can be easily sterilized by boiling, effectively solving the issue of recurring bottling costs.

Silicone vs. Natural Cork: Why Make the Switch?

While natural cork holds tradition, silicone technology (Synthetic Corks) is gaining ground for critical reasons regarding food safety:

• No Fungal Risks: Silicone is immune to the fungi that cause the infamous "cork taint" (TCA) in wine.
• Long-Term Durability: It does not dry out or crumble inside the bottle, even after years of upright storage.
• Easy Sterilization: You can boil silicone stoppers before every use, ensuring a completely sterile environment for your product, something impossible to achieve with porous natural cork.
