Amorim’s R&D has partnered with the field’s leading experts to bring supercritical fluid technology well into the 21st Century, launching Xpür® the world’s greenest and most efficient anti-TCA technology for micro granulated corks. A highly effective process per se, the Xpür® system cleanses cork using less energy, creating a positive impact on the planet. This groundbreaking process allows for the removal of TCA and other sensory-deviation molecules that may exist in the granules, without compromising cork’s natural properties. At the molecular level, cork’s elastic, physical-mechanical features remain intact, without the need to use any artificial components.
Xpür® is the latest generation technical stopper which guarantees great structural stability for a perfect performance. 80% cork granule composition ensures top performance. Composed of uniform sized micro cork granules, with high elastic properties and pressed into individual moulds.
Containing a minimum of 80% natural cork granules enveloped by a binding agent with 100% vegetable polyols, Qork® is the world’s most sustainable and advanced micro granulated cork stopper. Featuring Xpür®, the innovative, 21st Century supercritical fluid technology, Qork® allows for a robust and even deeper cleansing of cork’s cellular structure, delivering non-detectable TCA performance and eliminating other volatile substances that could trigger sensory deviations, while keeping the natural characteristics of cork intact.
