After almost 30 years, SIMEI is still the leading fair for everything that is wine, as well as for the packaging world dedicated to the spirits and condiments sectors.

For this reason, from November 19th to 22nd Tapì will also be there as exhibitors, at what can without doubt be regarded as a world-class event for all those working in the above-mentioned sectors.

SIMEI is comprehensively renewing itself to become a truly global fair of wine-making technologies, products and accessories. From the substantial numbers of operators and producers from all five continents, to new partnerships with trade associations and key institutions such as the Italian Ministry of Economic Development, ICE-Agency, SIMEST and Fiera Milano, opening the doors even more to wine-related commodity chains such as olive oil, beer and spirits, we are working on an exhibition that marks a turning point in the history of SIMEI. Numerous top exhibitors have already booked their places at the 2019 edition, confirming SIMEI’s international leadership and providing further evidence that the choice to renew was the right one.

These words from SIMEI president Ernesto Abbona underline why we at Tapì are looking forward to taking part in what promises to be the most innovative edition ever. See you at stand 15E21-F22 for a key innovation!

The new closures developed and manufactured by Tapì with exotic and unfinished woods with the addition of genuine leather.

Signature Wood Inspiration is the range of Tapì closures where design meets tradition, durability and quality.

The noble precious material that is wood plays the lead role throughout the Wood closure collection, which today is enhanced by two new types of finish: Exotic Woods and Craft Effect. The first is made with precious exotic woods, with their distant mysterious flavours. Ideal for embellishing unusual and/or original spirits and condiments with a touch that will enhance the whole supply chain.

The second, the Craft Effect line, was conceived as a meeting point between unfinished woods and genuine leathers. A unique result that highlights the quality craftsmanship used for any individual product and packaging solution.

Closures that are more than just stoppers – they are communication tools that express the values to which the products are intrinsically linked.

Both the Exotic Woods and the Craft Effect finishes will be officially launched at Luxe Pack 2019, at the Grimaldi Forum in Monaco – from September 30^th to October 2^nd. This year we will again be exhibiting and will be delight to show off our innovations, based on the latest trends in the beverage world.

We look forward to meeting you at Booth DB19!

The Starlight range is the result of a creative desire to put a gleam of light into every single bottle it graces. Expressive shades, bright colours and futuristic designs are achieved through translucencies and highlights, resulting in aesthetic innovation and much more.

The originality of Starlight closures and Starlight Mix pourers can also be seen in the cutting-edge assembly techniques. The ultrasonic welding technique used to make Starlight can be defined as high-tech, as it is glueless but assembles each component while preventing any accidental breakages during usage.

Another plus of the Starlight and Starlight Mix range is that the closures are totally customizable. Head and stem can be customized in their every detail, resulting in an authentic and absolutely exclusive product.
