Stop venting CO₂. Start capturing it.

Portable CO₂ recovery for the drinks industry. Cork & Capture provides a fully portable, modular CO₂ recovery system designed specifically for wineries, breweries, distilleries, cider makers, and commercial alcohol producers. Our mobile unit captures fermentation CO₂, purifies it to beverage-grade quality, and prepares it for reuse, resale, or permanent removal.

Process

How the system works

We've stripped away the complexity. Here's what happens when you partner with us.

Capture and use your own CO₂

Portable & modular

Capture and use your own CO₂

Our entire system fits on a single Ford Transit–sized vehicle. It installs directly on your fermentation vessels, capturing CO₂ as it's produced. We capture, purify and compress it, then test it and store it onsite. Seasonal deployment for wineries — year-round for breweries, distilleries, and commercial producers.

Sell surplus or lock it away

Resale & sequestration

Sell surplus or lock it away

Any CO₂ you don't use gets collected by us. We sell it locally to other producers through our facilitated resale network, or permanently sequester it underground for carbon credit generation. Storage is provided separately, configured for onward sale, on-site reuse, or permanent removal.

Service

What you get with Cork & Capture

We handle the installation, maintenance, and testing. You get beverage-grade CO2 ready to use, carbon credits in the bank, and the option to earn from surplus sales.

On-site capture

On-site capture

Our kit sits on your fermentation vessels and captures CO2 as it's produced. No retrofitting your entire operation. No disruption to what you're already doing well.

Purity testing

Purity testing

Every batch is tested and verified to meet beverage-grade standards. Quality assurance is built into the process, not bolted on afterwards.

Storage & supply

Storage & supply

Captured CO2 is stored in on-site tanks ready for immediate use. You use what you need for carbonation, chilling, or packaging.

Carbon credits

Carbon credits

Surplus CO2 is permanently sequestered and registered as Verra-certified carbon credits. You earn revenue from what you don't use.

Impact

The numbers that matter

UK drinks producers currently spend over £1.7 million annually on fossil-derived CO2 whilst venting 6,050 tonnes of usable biogenic CO2 into the atmosphere. That's the problem we're solving.

17m

Total CO2 tonnes produced by alcoholic fermentation

4%

Total annual share of global green house emissions by alcoholic drinks industry

98%

Advantage

Why producers choose us

You get a system that pays for itself. Lower bills, cleaner operations, and genuine environmental impact without the greenwashing.

Zero purchased CO₂

Our system eliminates the need to buy CO₂ entirely. Producers can also displace some water, nitrogen, and cleaning chemical costs.

New revenue streams

Sell surplus CO₂ through our facilitated resale network (10% fee). Turn a waste product into a genuine income source.

Supply security

On-site CO₂ production removes reliance on external deliveries. No more supply disruptions or volatile pricing.

Sustainability leadership

Capture and reuse fermentation CO₂, with carbon credits available once certified. Genuine environmental impact, not greenwashing.

Operational flexibility

Seasonal or year-round deployment depending on your production profile. Offered on a flexible monthly fee, avoiding large upfront CAPEX.

Join the future of sustainable CO₂ use

Cork & Capture enables producers to eliminate purchased CO₂, generate new revenue, and lead the industry in sustainability — all through a compact, mobile, and flexible system.
