Polmac (UK) Ltd supplies wood, champagne and wine boxes and
custom-makes each box to the customer's exact requirements. Our boxes
are then delivered directly to the customer's door and they place inside
them, a variety of fine wines and champagne.
Fortnum & Mason Champagne Box
The style and quality of the champagne boxes vary depending on the customer's requirements. For top-end champagne, a high quality, wood, champagne box is always a prerequisite!
The base wood used is normally
Alder or Lindenwood, which is then finished with a vibrant woodstain,
such as oak, maple, or mahogany. However, hardwoods can also be used if the champagne is a special vintage and quality.
To prevent finger marks, the woodstain finish on the outside, is sealed with a clear satin, or gloss lacquer finish.
One
of the challenges in the design of champagne and wine boxes is how to
restrain the glass champagne or wine bottles, to prevent them from
breaking in transit.
With champagne this can be achieved
very effectively using a pre-formed insert placed in the base of the
champagne box and lid and covered with a colorful, silk or flock fabric
finish.
Silk or flock fabric linings are very popular
because they are relatively inexpensive and dramatically increase the
perceived value of the champagne and so boost sales!
Although
there are many high value wines, the majority of wines on the market
are relatively inexpensive and this is reflected in the wood
presentation packaging.
Polmac, Customized Wine Boxes With Sliding Lids & Woodwool Fill
Often wine boxes have a more rustic feel, so Pinewood, or even Lindenwood is used as the base wood. The wine box will often have a rudimentary jointing system where the wood panels, comprising the wine box, are simply butt jointed and nailed together!
Wood wine boxes sometimes have internal
restraining collars but woodwool is often the fill material of choice,
as it's more economical and readily available.
Polmac
customized, wood champagne and wine boxes can be personalized with a
printed logo or text. The most economical method of printing is
metallic, foil blocking, using a range of colorful metallic foils and is
extensively used.
Metallic foil blocking comprises a
hot stamping technique and is very popular. However, screen printing
and laser etching are also popular printing choices.
