FIZZTIRAGELITE
Returnable by design.
FIZZTIRAGE LITE replaces the traditional bidule and crown-cap set with a single monomaterial component. After disgorgement, the closure is recovered and turned back into raw material.

Frequently asked questions.
From the bottle to raw-material recovery. What you need to know to take the next step.
01What does FIZZTIRAGE LITE offer?
It combines the crown cap and bidule in one monomaterial component for sparkling wine tirage and bottle fermentation. Easy to apply and designed to be recovered after disgorgement and turned back into raw material.
02Which bottle can I use?
A standard traditional-method or champenoise bottle with a 29 mm crown finish conforming to UNE 126406, Annex A, and NF H 35-077. FIZZTIRAGE LITE is designed to work with this widely used winery format.
03How does it simplify capping?
One component, one machine and one operation. FIZZTIRAGE LITE integrates the closure into a single cap applied directly by pressure, simplifying capping on the tirage line.
04How does it fit into my tirage line?
With a standard press-on capping machine. Its introduction is an opportunity to renew your equipment and simplify capping while retaining the usual operation of the rest of your line.
05What options do you offer for renewing capping equipment?
We work with AROL and recommend their equipment. Through FIZZYPRO (opens in a new tab), we support the selection and installation of a compatible standard press-on capping machine, with the option of paying for it through the supply of closures, subject to agreed terms.
06How does its cost compare with the conventional system?
FIZZTIRAGE LITE offers the advantages of a one-piece closure and a raw-material recovery loop at a cost comparable to the conventional crown cap and bidule combination.
07What does returnable mean?
It means giving raw material new cycles. After disgorgement, the closures are collected at the winery and enter the FIZZYCAPS recovery loop. Through recycling, they become raw material again for manufacturing new products.
08Can the same closure be reused?
No. The closure is designed to conform to the neck of each bottle during capping and is used once. Its raw material returns to the cycle: we recover the closures after disgorgement and recycle them into raw material for manufacturing new products.
09What improvements does it bring to winery operations?
Simpler capping, corrosion resistance and lower closing force. It can also reduce tirage-line noise by up to 30 dB, depending on test conditions and line configuration.
10What does the 35% carbon-footprint reduction represent?
A reduction in climate impact compared with the traditional crown cap and bidule system, established through a comparative life cycle assessment. The study’s scope, conditions and methodology are available on request.
11How can I see it in operation?
We have a capping machine available for demonstrations. Together with FIZZYPRO (opens in a new tab), we arrange a trial with your bottles to demonstrate FIZZTIRAGE LITE and prepare its integration into your winery.
