# Pop Tab Wine Stoppers This Unusual Wine Stopper is Modeled After a Soda Can's Pop Tab By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2013-06-12 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unusual-wine-stopper References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2013/06/11/popstop/) & [vidastory](http://www.vidastory.com/) This unusual wine stopper by Jae Hyuk Lee is designed to look like the pop tab on a can of soda. Unfortunately, the design of pop tabs on soda cans can only be used once, and can cause soda to go flat if you don't drink it all at once. This design takes the idea of the pop tab and makes it so you can open and close your [wine bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/placemat-hightop-table) for consumption at another time. The colorful rubber 'Poptop Stoppers' provide an airtight seal to keep wine fresh. Similarly, the Poptop recreates this feeling of freshness each time the Poptop is opened like a [brand new can of soda](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sustainable-drinkware). This fun and clever design is a great way to improve and adapt a design's functionality for a new product. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.4/10 - Popularity: 79% | Activity: 76% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Reinvented Product Design:** The use of pop tab wine stoppers demonstrates a trend of taking familiar designs and repurposing them for new products. - **Novelty Packaging:** The pop tab wine stoppers tap into the trend of unique and eye-catching packaging for consumer goods. - **Sustainable Solutions:** The use of reusable pop tab wine stoppers aligns with the growing trend of eco-friendly and waste reduction practices. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Wine and Spirits:** The wine and spirits industry could adopt the pop tab wine stoppers to offer consumers a fun and innovative way to preserve and consume their products. - **Packaging:** The packaging industry could embrace the pop tab design to create novel closures for various types of products. - **Sustainable Goods:** The sustainable goods industry could explore the use of pop tab-like designs in developing more eco-friendly and reusable packaging options. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Wine Bottle Cork Trimmers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/qwikcork.md) - [Sparkling Wine Preservation Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coravin.md) - [Flavor Preservation Wine Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coravin-timeless-three-sl.md) - [Wine Top Vacuum Seals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zoenox.md) - [Aluminum Sparkling Wine Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ceci-1938.md) - [Dynamic Curved Bottle Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dancing-opener.md) - [Bat-Shaped Wine Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wine-and-beer-openers.md) - [Two-Tabbed Beer Cans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twotabbed-beer-can.md) - [Decorative Bottle Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/decorative-bottle-opener1.md)
