Lowland Bond’s early adoption of Vapour’s Maturation and Bottling modules has been transformative from the outset, driving precise inventory control, smoother warehouse operations, and a fully streamlined bottling process. From cask to bottle, they’ve boosted productivity, accuracy, and compliance every step of the way.
From the outset, Lowland Bond has made Vapour a core part of its operations, laying a strong foundation for efficient cask management and bottling workflows. This long-term collaboration has enabled Lowland Bond to tackle the challenges of tracking maturing spirits and coordinating bottling activities with precision, ensuring consistency and minimising delays from day one. Vapour’s purpose-built modules have played a vital role in delivering clear oversight and control across these critical areas of the business.
One of the standout advantages of adopting Vapour early on has been the ability to comprehensively manage cask inventory, backed by a detailed history of every cask’s lifecycle. With the Maturation Module in place from the beginning, Lowland Bond has effectively tracked both empty and filled wood inventory. The platform also supports detailed cask operations, such as movements, regauging, re-racking, sampling, and issue resolution, helping maintain accurate and up-to-date records of all maturing stock.
More recently, the addition of Vapour’s Bottling Add-on has transformed Lowland Bond’s ability to convert matured spirits into finished products. This module provides intelligent inventory control across dry goods, bottling materials, and finished goods, seamlessly completing the spirit-to-glass process. From selecting a cask to dispatching the final bottle, Vapour ensures operational accuracy and efficiency at every step of the bottling line.
