EMBOSSING

Take pride in seeing your branding embossed or engraved into the chimes of our impeccably manufactured stainless-steel kegs. From standard characters to full logo design, embossing your logo will outstand your keg from the rest.

LABELS

With our long-lasting stickers, you have an easy branding option for your kegs which guarantees the possibility of rebranding in case you need it in the future. Our stickers are proved to work under heavy-duty environments (heat, sun, washing machines,…).

REBRANDING

To neutralize branded kegs, we can knurl out the existing top chime embossing and customize the stainless steel keg body with the new brand, applying different techniques including labels, silk screen printing, and more. Alternatively, we can replace the top chime with a new one.

KEG FILLING LINE MONITORING SYSTEM

THIELMANN has partnered with ROTECH to provide an essential hygiene and quality monitoring tool for every brewery with a keg filling line, large or small.

It comprises a brewery standard keg fitted with sensors and a data logger, with custom software to check every cycle of keg washing, disinfection, filling. You can ensure washing and disinfection are exacting, and gassing and filling are fully efficient.

Highlights include:

• Increase throughput by eliminating delays, with confidence.
• Save utilities and energy by reducing purge pressures, over-long cycle times.
• On-screen key parameter checks show immediately if out of range – no process knowledge needed.
• Ensures full ISO9001 and HACCP compliance via an independent record of quality.
