Wine Barrel Storage

Wine producers lose wine to evaporation during the aging process. If the ambient humidity is not controlled, the “topping off” process (adding back lost wine) can become expen-sive. Some vineyards report losses as great as 14% by volume in three years when storage conditions are 60% RH.

Wine makers consider humidity over 75% RH for reds and over 85% RH for whites to be ideal.

VaporDry™ produces a non-wetting dry fog to control humidity and can reduce your evaporation losses by more than half.

Wine Bottle Storage

Aging wine in the bottle is a complex series of chemical reactions involving minute contact with air through the cork. Cork is a natural product and will deteriorate with time even when the wine is in contact. If the air is too dry, the cork will dry out, shrink, crack and allow more air into the wine.

Experts agree that 50% RH is too low for wine bottle storage. Ideal humidity levels should range between 60% RH and 80% RH. The VaporDry™ system will precisely control the humidity, so your wine ages under the best conditions.

Humidity Without Wetness!

Corrigan continues to innovate and push industry standards with its larger space humidity systems designed to offer high relative humidity by achieving a non-condensing dry fog.

VaporDry™ produces the largest volume of dry fog from a single nozzle and a water droplet size as small as 2 microns and consistently well below 10 microns.
