STEPRIM
SURFACE TREATMENT FOR CORKS
STEPRIM could be called primer for STEVAPASTE, and is a kerosene emulsion that enhances cork anti-capillarity.
1 - Composition :

Anionic kerosene wax emulsion.

Technical specifications

    • Appearance: white liquid.
    • Dry extract: 46 ± 2%.
    • Brookfield viscosity: 50-250 cP (LV1 – 10 rpm)
2 - Properties :

It reinforces the cap’s anti-capillarity when desired.

If polymerizable silicones are used, STEPRIM facilitates adhesion and evenness on the cork.

STEPRIM added on top of excessively slippery corks can eventually reduce slipperiness.

STEPRIM was originally developed to prevent wine spillage. In use, it has demonstrated its many advantages.

Food safety: All the products used in STEPRIM comply with :

  • FDA 21 CFR regulations and amendments,
  • EC regulation N° 10/2011 and its amendments,
  • for other regulations, please refer to the food contact certificate.
3 - Application:

STEPRIM should be shaken before use. Inject STEPRIM into the drum before injecting the glide product (STEVAPASTE type). For 10,000 natural corks (44 x 24):

  • Inject approx. 100 grams of STEPRIM.
  • Leave to run for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Then inject approx. 100 grams of STEVAPASTE

Allow to run for a further 10 to 15 minutes. Suggested dosage for 10,000 corks:

  • Natural (44 x 24): 100 grams of STEPRIM, then 100 grams of STEVAPASTE.
  • Clogged (44 x 24): 80 grams of STEPRIM, then 80 grams of STEVAPASTE
  • Agglomerated (35 x 24): 70 grams of STEPRIM, then 70 grams of STEVAPASTE.

STEPRIM and STEVAPASTE can be used on all types of drum (heated or unheated, oscillating axes, etc….). To avoid clogging, the syringes and spray nozzles used should preferably be different for each product.

4 - Storage:

Storage of corks : STEPRIM-treated corks offer excellent stability over time.

STEPRIM storage : Protect from frost. Store at temperatures above 3°C. Avoid storage beyond 12 months. Avoid storage beyond 12 months

5 - Other :

Thermolysation : In view of the different heat treatments of wines (Pasteurization, sterilization, thermolysation, flash pasteurization), it is advisable to check the behavior of kerosene.
