KeyKeg is a sustainable, circular solution for a wide range of beverages like beer, wine, cider, coffee, kombucha and RTD cocktails. It is lightweight, durable and stackable and the innovative Bag-in-Keg™ Technology maximises shelf life ensures that products are delivered in perfect condition during distribution and export.
KeyKegs are robust, resilient and resistant to damage. Double Wall™ Technology offers protection for beverages and safety for staff who fill, handle, transport or dispense from KeyKeg.
Sustainable packaging is today’s choice for beverages that appeal to environmentally conscious consumers. KeyKegs are designed for circularity and not only save natural resources, but also cut waste and limit water, chemical and fuel use. Sustainability also reduces the amount of waste that is incinerated or used as landfill unnecessarily.
There is no CO2 needed to dispense from KeyKeg-K. Customers can use any dispense gas, even compressed air, because beverage and gas are kept separate in KeyKeg.
Available in 10L, 20L, and 30L sizes, KeyKeg offers custom sleeves to help you promote customer’s branding.
