All for tasteful drinking
A variety of bar and wine accessories is offered to make drinking more pleasing and convenient

The world has developed an insatiable thirst for wine. Whether it's red wine, white wine or champagne, bar and wine accessories manufacturers are perking wine drinking up by producing stylish products in many different shapes, sizes and designs.

Wine drinker should have once encountered some difficulties while opening a bottle of wine, say, having the cork break and drop into the wine or get stuck in the neck of the bottle. To avoid those embarrassed moments, different types of new corkscrews are released for easy and effortless cork pulling. From lever pull type of corkscrew to waiter's friend corkscrew, or from electrical corkscrew to gas-operated one, they are all user-friendly helpers for home and commercial users alike.

Dripping of wine while pouring usually happens. In order to reduce this awkward moment, the newly designed wine pourers are introduced to help prevent drips of wine by keeping wine running at a constant low pace and spreading it out while pouring.

Serving wine for numerous guests in a party is a hassle. To make this tedious job easier, a new versatile wine dispenser can be an easy and convenient wine serving solution at home.

To today's most wine lovers, collecting wine is an art and their collections are to be displayed elegantly. Various styled wine racks are reported to compliment any home decor as well as allow them to display and store the wine properly and tastefully.

According to the interviewed manufacturers, bar and wine accessories packed in gift sets are widely used as premiums. They range from jiggers and cocktail shakers to stoppers, drinking straws, stirrers, and ice clips. Logo engraving, imprinting and silk-screen printing are common for wine accessories for the promotional end.

"Using the right accessory enhances the experience of preparing, serving and enjoying wine. And a well-designed accessory is a pleasing gift to receive," Andy Wong, marketing manager of Asia Act International Co., Ltd., claimed.

Seeing wine gifts as a growing sector, Asia Act concentrates on developing a new range of wine and spirit accessories including corkscrews, stoppers, wine coolers, wine charms and wine gift sets. Its products sell well in the US, France, Spain, the UK, Australia and Japan.

One of Asia Act trademarks is "Simpull", a series of professional lever pull corkscrews for uncorking a bottle of wine of all sizes and types in seconds. Made from die-cast zinc alloy, it features a sturdy construction, enabling users to remove the cork effortlessly. "Simply by pulling the lever in one simple motion, it will easily remove the cork without a slip or crumble," he said. Available in a broad range of finishes, such as shiny, satin and rubberized, each model of the series comes with a foil cutter and spiral. Mr Wong added, Teflon-coated spiral is possible for easier and smoother removal.

Asia Act also produces waiter's friend corkscrews. "Traditional waiter's friend corkscrews are in fact the most convenient and user-friendly," he stated. Made of smooth tempered steel, Asia Act's waiter's friend corkscrews feature the gorgeous wood or ABS handles in assorted colours. Contoured and curved, the handles are a blend of functionality and aesthetics, enabling users to hold and use them easily. For greater ease, the 5-turn spiral can be Teflon-coated or grooved to improve the corks' penetration and extraction powers.

Variety is another strength of Asia Act; both electrical and gas-operated corkscrews are offered.

Due to the stiff market competition especially from Mainland China manufacturers, who generally offer lower prices, Asia Act decided to maintain its edge through paying particular attention to small details for higher quality. "For instance, we found that American Teflon is preferable to Taiwanese Teflon as American Teflon offers a quieter cork pulling. That gives us an edge to win orders from high-end markets," said he.

The company undertakes both OEM and ODM projects in addition to offering self-developed designs. Generally speaking, it requires a minimum order quantity of 1,000 pieces for "Simpull" series and 2,000 pieces for other wine accessories. The FOB prices are negotiable. Delivery normally takes 25 days after receipt of TT or L/C.
