Plastic Wine Barrels

 

At the request of our customers, we have also made plastic wine barrels.

Due to all the properties that plastic barrels or vats, as they are sometimes called, possess, where price is a very important factor, our wine barrels are much cheaper than other solutions.

The old masters who knew how to make a barrel, or coopers, that craft is long in decline. Some solutions like stainless steel barrels are too expensive, so besides all the properties, the price of plastic barrels plays a very significant role.

The basic characteristics of plastic barrels (barrels) for wine are:

  • Economical and Affordable

One of the key factors that make plastic wine barrels an attractive choice is their price. As mentioned, plastic barrels are significantly cheaper than traditional wooden barrels and stainless steel barrels. This makes plastic barrels an extremely economical solution for winemaking, especially for those who are just starting with this hobby or business.

  • Ease and Mobility

Plastic barrels are extremely easy to handle and transport, making them ideal for use in various conditions. Their mobility allows vineyard owners and winemakers to easily move barrels as needed, whether it’s indoor spaces for fermentation or storage, or outdoor spaces.

  • Hygiene and Maintenance

Due to the material they are made from, plastic barrels do not absorb odors, meaning they can store different types of beverages without fear of mixing tastes and odors. In addition, they are easy to clean and maintain, which is especially important in the wine production process where hygiene is crucial.

  • Weather Resistance

Plastic barrels are made from materials that are resistant to UV rays and extreme temperatures, meaning they can be safely stored outside. This resistance to weather conditions gives winemakers greater flexibility and fewer concerns about storage.

  • Durability and Sustainability

The HDPE material from which the barrels are made ensures their longevity, where the material loses only 5% of its properties after 50 years of use. This makes plastic wine barrels a long-term solution that is also environmentally sustainable.

  • Versatile Use

Besides wine, plastic barrels can be used for storing various liquids such as water, pomace, brandy, as well as for fermenting fruits like quince and apricot. This versatility makes them a useful tool in every household or agriculture.

PLASTIC WINE BARRELS WITH FLOATING LIDSm

Unlike plastic barrels for pomace, plastic barrels for grapes or wine are made differently. We make them with a floating lid or another way they are called barrels with a water seal. Wine is a bit more specific than brandy, so it needs to be protected from oxidation that could cause changes in wine quality. It is best to pour paraffin oil into the belt that fits the lid.

Also, it is possible to add all kinds of fittings and taps, various valves, level indicators, fittings with external or internal threads, inspection openings to our wine barrels, and for easier handling, we can install handles or grips on them.

The good side of Čabar Plast barrels, barrels, or wine vats is that they are easy to maintain and need to be washed only with water and deposits from wine acid are easily removed. You already know that they do not absorb and do not emit any odors or tastes, so they can be used for brandy, sauerkraut, water barrels, and similar.
