Pelliconi’s galaxy where nothing is left to chance
The future sees Pelliconi’s Innovation department heavily involved in the search for a product that goes beyond second fermentation, a closure that can substitute cork or compact caps
Founded in Bologna in 1939 as “Ditta Angelo Pelliconi” (DAP), specialized in the production of crown corks, Pelliconi is a world leader in the field of metal, and plastic closures for the food&beverage industry with an annual production of more than 32 billion caps.

Pelliconi’s galaxy includes business realities that are very different from each other, located geographically at antipodes and sometimes with unusual or lesser- known market objectives. This is the case of Pelliconi France, devoted mainly to a business segment not known to most, “it is crown caps for the intermediate product during the second fermentation of sparkling wine. Products of excellent quality in which nothing is left to chance, not even the materials with which the substrates and liners are made of, which are completely in accordance with the most authoritative international standards, designed to grant different permeability depending on the conditions in which the bottle is located”, as stated by Matteo Canti, General Manager of the French office.
This is today, the future, on the other hand, sees the Innovation department heavily involved in the search for a product that goes beyond second fermentation, a closure that can substitute cork or compact caps. Champagne houses are acquiring vineyards and productions that can - following the classic method - give new opportunities to consumers by offering a product similar to the traditional. The year 2023 promises some difficulties for the sector mainly due to the large increase in production costs, but the sparkling wine world seems to be exempt by focusing again, if there is still a need, on the more mature markets always looking for a quality product, with important average price.
