Xpür® vs. Its Competitors – Redefining Micro-Granulated Cork

Setting the Benchmark for Micro-Granulated Cork Closures

In the competitive world of wine closures, Xpür® by Amorim is setting a new standard for micro-granulated cork technology. As the demand for sustainable, high-performance closures increases, Xpür® is emerging as the leader in purity, consistency, and environmental responsibility.

The Technology Behind Xpür®

At the heart of Xpür® is supercritical CO extraction — a state-of-the-art purification process that guarantees:

  • TCA-Free Performance: Complete elimination of trichloroanisole, ensuring sensory purity in every bottle.
  • Sensory Neutrality: Xpür® maintains the wine’s true aromatic profile without interference.
  • Batch Consistency: Precise oxygen control for predictable ageing and reliable quality across large-scale production.

Unlike other micro-granulated corks that rely on aggressive chemical treatments, Xpür® uses CO₂ extraction, which is non-toxic and environmentally friendly. This results in a closure that preserves the natural structure of cork, maintaining its elasticity and sealing power.

Sustainability at the Core

Amorim’s commitment to sustainability is reflected in Xpür®’s production process. All cork is sustainably harvested from cork oak forests that not only sequester carbon but also support biodiversity. Amorim’s approach reduces the carbon footprint of every bottle sealed with Xpür®, contributing to a more sustainable wine industry.

The Xpür® Advantage

While alternative closures may offer consistency, Xpür® delivers that and more:

  • Chemical-free purification
  • Natural cork elasticity for perfect sealing
  • Proven ageing potential for both still and sparkling wines

When it comes to performance, reliability, and sustainability, Xpür® stands alone.
