VINTEC WINE CABINET TECHNOLOGY
Vintec and Transtherm climate controlled wine cabinets recreate
conditions found in the world’s natural cellars.With controllable
temperature, adapted hygrometry, natural ventilation and vibration
control, they bring the ultimate storage solution to your home,
office or building projects.
Vintec and Transtherm wine cabinets are manufactured from
quality materials and thoroughly inspected at all stages of
production. Our cabinets are designed to protect your wines
against all external influences, while allowing them to mature
under optimal conditions.
While the Vintec range is economical and designed to suit the
modern lifestyle,Transtherm has been designed to appeal to
the connoisseurs and hospitality industry who demand perfect
presentation and sophisticated storage for their premium wines.
More and more people are using our wine cabinets to;
• Safeguard their red and white wine from changing
temperatures
• Have their wine ready to drink (with a multi-zone unit)
• Store their wine in an economical, space-saving and aesthetically
pleasing cabinet
• Have their wines ‘on hand’ when entertaining
The temperature for single-zone wine cabinets should be set
between 12 – 15°C, safely cellaring both red and white wine
(which cellar at the same temperature).
Multi-zone wine cabinets graduate from 6°C at the bottom to
18°C at the top, ensuring your wines are ready to serve at the
correct drinking temperature. Multi-zone cabinets are not designed
for long term storage/cellaring.
Temperature
Constant temperature is critical for maturation of both red and
white wines.The recommended temperature for ageing wines is
between 12 – 15°C.
Humidity
A humidity level of greater than 55% is essential to ensure the
cork retains its quality. Too little humidity allows the cork to dry
out, shrink and allows oxidation of the wine to occur.The thermal
pump system of our wine cabinets ensures adequate humidity
levels are maintained. In multi-zone wine cabinets the humidity
reduces greatly, therefore these cabinets are only suitable for
serving wines rather than long term cellaring and storing of wines.
Light
UV and fluorescent light is damaging to wines.The glass doors of
our wine cabinets are double glazed and UV treated.
Vibration
Vibration can affect the flavour and bouquet of your wine. Our
cabinets feature vibration absorbers and slow cycling balanced
compressors to eliminate all residual vibrations.
Air Circulation
Air circulation prevents mould forming on corks. Our cabinets
have air vents to ensure slow reticulated air flow.
All Vintec and Transtherm wine cabinets come with a 2 year
warranty and are supported by an Australia-wide after-sales and
service network.Vintec Australia offers a national distribution
network to assist with any queries regarding their products.

Vintec and Transtherm wine cabinets offer 5 key elements that are
crucial to the long term storage of red and white wine.
THERMAL PUMP
The thermal pump process works by
heating the condensed water, which
then allows the introduction of humid
air within the cabinet.This considerably
increases the hygrometry and gives the
cabinet natural ventilation and constant
air circulation.
