Wooden Caps: Features and Benefits

Wooden caps are certainly an aesthetic choice, but they also guarantee excellent product protection. Wood is a noble and durable material, and in addition to a natural and refined appearance, it offers advantages such as:

• Customization options with various techniques, to align the bottle as closely as possible with your brand’s identity.
• Strength and durability, thanks to internal processing and the co-injection of the synthetic stem directly into the wooden cap, avoiding the risk of detachment.
• Versatility, making it suitable for various sectors, such as food, cosmetics, perfumery, and home fragrance.

How can wooden caps be customized?

At Ipercap, we offer a wide range of customization options to make your wooden cap unique and perfectly aligned with your product’s identity.

Let’s start with the wood. As mentioned, our wooden caps are made of beech, a durable material that we can paint in various shades: walnut, dark walnut, black, and cherry. We can also spray paint to match your desired color, aligning with your brand identity.

We can also customize your cap using various techniques:

• Coloring: We paint the top of the cap to match the bottle’s design.
  Laser engraving: We engrave the surface of the wood with a laser beam, creating logos or lettering, even in the smallest details.
• Hot stamping: We use hot stamping to add shiny details in gold, silver, and other premium finishes.
• Pyrography: A deep engraving that gives a handcrafted and natural effect to the product.
• Pad printing: High-definition color printing.
  Cold engraving: A refined and discreet engraving on the cap’s head and wall.

For which types of products are wooden caps recommended?

Wooden caps are the ideal choice for your product if you want to add a touch of elegance and authenticity to the bottle. In general, they are particularly suitable for:

• Spirits and liqueurs, where refined design is essential to convey the quality of the contents.
• Oil and vinegar, for packaging that recalls the tradition and craftsmanship of the product.
• Perfumes and cosmetics, which require sophisticated and customizable closures.
• Home fragrances, for elegant and decorative diffusers.
  Food products, such as jams, honey, and preserves, to add a natural touch to the product.

Wooden Caps: Types

Wooden caps stand out for their variety of shapes and functions, adapting to different market needs. There are T-caps, with a cork or synthetic stem, often used to seal liqueurs, spirits, and fine oils, ensuring a hermetic seal.

Wooden pouring caps, on the other hand, meet the dual needs of elegance and practicality, allowing for controlled dispensing of liquids without sacrificing a natural and sophisticated design.

Then there are GPI screw caps with wood coating: a functional and modern alternative for premium products. Finally, in the cosmetics and perfumery sectors, wood can be used for spray caps or room diffuser caps, adding a handcrafted touch to luxury bottles and containers.

Wooden caps: how does color influence the aesthetics of the bottle?

Wooden caps are usually chosen primarily for aesthetic reasons, as they add a handcrafted and natural touch to the bottle. Of course, the wooden cap can be colored to match the label and brand identity.

When it comes to customization, however, it’s important to be careful with laser engraving. In fact, laser engraving will be less visible on darker paints than engraving on natural or lighter shades.

Why choose Ipercap wooden caps?

Ipercap is among the few companies able to produce wooden caps, manufacturing the caps in-house with its own, dedicated machinery. This allows us to guarantee faster delivery times and complete control over the product creation, including customizations.

Furthermore, Ipercap caps are co-injected, meaning the synthetic stem is not glued, but integrated directly into the wooden cap, thus avoiding the risk of detachment. Looking for customized wooden caps to add a natural touch to your premium products?
