Labrenta with Adamello relives the cap of the Great War

It will be reproduced in a thousand copies thanks to the mold created for the Vicenza company by a team of specialized Sardinian artisans

A cap from the First World War, with more than a hundred years of history behind it, lives again thanks to Labrenta , a Breganze-based company specialized in closing solutions. Adamello , this is the name given to the cork from the place where it was found, will be reproduced in a thousand numbered copies thanks to the skilful work of a team of Sardinian artisans , still in possession of the techniques with which cork was worked in the early '900 , which will recreate the mold. The original cap, on the other hand, will be kept in a special case in the Labrenta headquarters. Dating back to the Great War, the closure was found by Maria Crespi and Denni Stefani, a young couple with a passion for history, along a path in Val Genova, at the foot of the Adamello Group. During the First World War the area was the scene of the so-called White War , so called because the Italian and Austrian troops competed for high altitude passes of strategic importance. The blackening of the cork and the characteristic shape of the past, semi-square and non-cylindrical, immediately revealed to the couple that it was a war relic. Hence the decision to entrust the object to Labrenta, a company already known to the two thanks to a previous collaboration, which decided to recreate Adamello in the image of the historic cork. “History is not made up only of great events - comments Gianni Tagliapietra , CEO of the Vicenza company, where the brothers Amerigo and Franca also work - but also of small gestures and everyday objects, of which we are the custodians today. We do not know the circumstances in which the bottle that this cork closed was opened, but this is probably a special occasion, given that in the trenches the wine was often poured directly from demijohns and tubs into the metal glass provided to each soldier. Much rarer was the appearance of a bottle, usually destined for the officers' mess, but perhaps also uncorked by the troops in the trenches for exceptional occasions, as it could have been a Christmas Eve ". Adamello will be reproduced in the course of 2021 in a limited edition with a special box set that also includes the story of the discovery told by the writer Stefano Ferrio.

Labrenta , founded in 1971 in Breganze (Vicenza), produces closures for the food sector. Provide the right closure is the motto with which he moves in search of the ideal cap for each need, through products capable of combining design and functionality. All production is carried out in Italy and is controlled by a Validation Process which takes place in seven phases. Since its foundation, Labrenta has devoted great attention to research and development. The goal is to provide each customer with their own closure by dedicating a tailor made service to them. The creative and scientific soul of Labrenta lives in D.Vision, the internal section in which a young and highly qualified professional team works exclusively dedicated to the development of new projects: listening to customers, their needs and transforming their intuition into reality. Ideas that, thanks to the use of a 3D printer, materialize in a very short time. Because in Labrenta each customer, with his product, is managed with the awareness of their uniqueness. Because a product communicates its value, starting from what it contains.
