Insulating the Global Wine Industry for over 25 years

Sustainability In The Industry

Sustainability is our core value at Protek Wine. Our commitment to sustainability stems from the efforts of our customers to ensure sustainable practices in their own productions. We recognize that the wine we are protecting was created with highly sustainable methods, and we aim to ensure that this effort is sought all the way through to the time it arrives at its final destination.

Reduce & Reuse

Our company was founded on the idea of creating products to help alleviate the need to use environmentally harmful refrigerator trucks and single use disposable insulation. We’ve designed our reusable Elite product line to ensure that our customers get the temperature protection they need while leaving a minimal environmental footprint. Every year our awareness evolves as we strive to develop better products and practices to maintain a cleaner environment.

Quality of Wine

There are other factors that can affect the chemical and organoleptic characteristics of the wine during transport, such as humidity, vibration, and light. However, temperature is still the most significant factor affecting the characteristic of the wine. Although temperature variability is indeed a concern during transport too. Daily temperature fluctuations of 25 C can induce an expansion of 1% in the volume of the liquid inside the bottle which can result in oxygen intake oxidizing the wine making it off in taste and aroma. Even though you don’t see physical damage to the bottle of wine, because of the contraction and expansion of the cork air seeps into the bottle of wine oxidizing it.

Testing

When it comes down to the physics of heat transfer and theories on how different products preform under the different climatic conditions we put our line of SureTemp products to the test. We believe that knowledge is king and when we speak to our customers about the physics of heat transfer and how it affects their quality of wine during transportation we are able to speak knowledgeably as an industry expert. We only concern ourselves with facts, we’re educated about the physics of heat transfer and we put our scientific theories to the test. When we talk to our customers they know we’ve done our due diligence because we don’t leave any stone unturned. We test, we test, and we test until we know we can speak confidently and factually about our products performance when insulating our customer’s valuable wine.
