Swing tops

We will supply you with swing tops - fitted or loose. Our swing tops are produced and tested to DIN standard 5097.

In your inquery, please tell us about your bottling details, such as known pasteurization. The porcelain heads can be supplied in the normal flat design with a spherical button or as a ball. This is how the swing top can be matched to your product fittings.
