Neptune, NJ -- (ReleaseWire) -- 10/25/2016 --Sterling Consolidated Corp (OTCPK:STCC), the parent company of Sterling Seal & Supply Inc., a distributor of custom molded rubber components, o-rings, gaskets, and seals, is pleased to announce today the company has filled its first two orders for "Bungs", a new product for the beer and wine barrel manufacturing industry.

Bungs are made of FDA and medical grade certified synthetic silicone that can seal wine and beer barrels more efficiently. More wine and beer barrel manufacturing companies are turning to alternative stoppers to provide more efficient sealing for their products.

"The market opportunity for this product is unbelievable," said Chairman Angelo DeRosa. "We've basically been cold calling wine barrel manufacturers, but now we're going to make brochures and generate a strategic marketing plan to really move the product."

The two orders of bungs equate to 1050 pieces or 525 barrels. The company does have a third order pending and upon finalization of that order, bungs will be in 540 barrels, bringing in $3500 in sales for the company thus far.

"Our goal for next year is to generate $800,000 to $1,000,000 in sales," said Chairman Angelo DeRosa. "We would rather ten accounts with less numbers than one account with a huge number."
