Located in Charente, outside of Cognac and with over 30 years dedicated solely to the design and manufacture of large oak vessels, our cooperage is well experienced in the production of wooden tanks of up to 500hL in capacity. For shipment to ANZ we offer sizes from 10-70hL, fully assembled for immediate use. Purchased mainly from state forests managed by the ONF (Office National des Forêts), all our oak is certified as PEFC. After the trees are harvested, we cut long planks of 54mm and 65mm thickness which are then naturally open air dried for a minimum of 4 years. Having discussed the exact requirements of your project (end use, choice of accessories, site constraints) our in-house design team will make a drawing following the complete specifications in conjunction with our artisan coopers. A clear description, detailed drawing and a quote are all provided for you to sign before we commence production. Once approved, the precise construction work begins.

4.2 Micron Droplets - The Secret is Out!
The secret of Smart Fog lies in the small droplet size of the water and the engineered spacing between the air and water. Smart Fog has succeeded in manipulating the droplet size to be the smallest in the industry.Why is the droplet size important?
Water evaporates only from the surface of the droplet. If the surface area of the droplet in relation to the volume of water is decreased, then the evaporation efficiency is increased. The smaller the droplet size, the longer it can stay air borne. Therefore, the smaller the droplet size the fastest and efficient evaporation is achieved. The 4.2 micron droplets created by Smart Fog® systems evaporate completely into the air before reaching any surface. Smart Fog® has achieved 100% evaporation rate, achieving 100% water efficiency. SMART FOG IS A FOG THAT DOES NOT MOISTEN THE EXPOSED SURFACES10 more reasons to buy Smart Fog:
- Energy efficient natural process using 50-90% less energy than other systems
- Jumbo non-clogging orifice
- Double cooling effect
- Safe low pressure operation
- Intelligent and precise humidity control
- Eliminates dust, mould, bacteria and viruses
- 4 functions, 1 system
- Plug and play installation
