Our clients choose Polarclad for the simple reason that we are the global leaders in this field, having co-developed this technology from the ground up. Through our research and experience, one thing has become very clear, that there are many benefits that come from insulating your wine tanks. Some of these benefits are explained below.

There are three main reasons why many wineries are now embracing this new technology. Firstly there is the long term preservation of wine quality, secondly is simply the aesthetic appeal given to your wine storage areas, and thirdly, we can't ignore the cost advantages of implementing this process.

1. Long Term Preservation
We all know that "A good wine improves with age", well, thanks to Polarclad this statement has never been more accurate. Studies have shown that wine quality is sustained when stored at a particular temperature, thus wineries have been in the practice of cooling their storage tanks for some time. The cooling process aids in keeping you wine quality at a premium. Polarclad has developed this a step further by adding value to the cooling process. Insulation is the key to improving this method whilst giving aesthetic appeal and substantial long term cost savings

2. Aesthetic Appeal
One of the more important factors for the contemporary wine maker is the image that comes with the product. Wineries are interested in presenting a good image that represents their product well, especially when it comes to attracting wine lovers, investors, international or local buyers. The all too familiar stainless-steel tanks that speckle the landscapes of wineries, present a problem for which there is a solution.
The Polarclad solution gives these tanks an aesthetically pleasing appearance that will serve to enhance the image of your operation. All insulated tanks are finished with smooth violet tone white* aluminium, which is impervious to the effects of the weather and easily maintained.
* there are a range of colours available for wineries wanting a more "individual" look.

3. Cost Advantages
The long-term financial savings quickly offset the relatively small cost of implementing wine tank insulation. Polarclad Global Cooling's services add value to your operations, which will continue to produce results for the years to come. One of the cost advantages is found in the dramatic reduction of power consumption for the tank refrigeration. Refrigeration equipment not only operates more efficiently with minimal power, but also allows automatic temperature control units to do their job more effectively.
