    PRODUCT FEATURES

    PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

    • 100% UV light protection: Our Cider kegs fully protect against the harmful effects that light can cause on a product.
    • Temperature protection: Our packaging solution provides better insulation against sudden changes in temperature.
    • Product oxidation prevention: our kegs create an impermeable barrier against the entrance of air, thus avoiding product oxidation, as well as the entry of impurities.
    • Product preservation: CO2 or a combination of CO2/N2 can be used, depending on your needs, to avoid changes to your product. These gases are commonly used to create an equilibrium inside the container in order to ensure that the cider is not altered in any way, and results in keeping the freshness from the cidery, right through to the glass.
    • Cost savings: At the end of the keg's lifespan, it can be recycled, which is not only beneficial for the environment, but also for your balance sheet; thanks to the high residual value of stainless steel.
    • Environmentally friendly & 100% recyclable
