WORLDKEG – Single-Use Stainless Steel KEG
The single-use KEG solution for safe and cost-effective export
Our single-use stainless steel KEGs offer a sustainable, high-quality alternative: they combine the economic advantages of a one-way solution with premium product quality – without the downsides of conventional plastic systems.
For breweries, wineries, and beverage producers, exporting in stainless steel KEGs as a single-use solution opens up new revenue and savings potential – without the risks and costs associated with traditional returnable KEGs: no losses, transport damage, low circulation rates, or complex return logistics. The administrative burden of managing returnable KEGs is eliminated, freeing up resources for more sales-focused activities.
Conventional single-use plastic KEGs may be a low-cost option but fail to meet high standards of quality and sustainability. Light-struck flavor, CO₂ loss, oxidation, and the risk of bursting pose serious disadvantages. Additionally, the use of non-recyclable plastics contributes significantly to global environmental pollution.
- Patented three-part design made of thin-walled stainless steel - equivalent in technical quality to reusable KEGs
- Over 90% recycling rate thanks to the scrap value of the empty KEG
- Fully recyclable - established recyclable material, economically and ecologically sensible, without government laws and hurdles
Our fitting systems are precisely tailored to meet international standards: In Europe, Africa, Asia, as well as Central and South America, we use the A-type and S-type single-use fittings. For the USA, Canada, and Mexico, we rely on the D-Type (US-Draft/Sankey) fitting. Both variants are equipped with spring-loaded valves for product and gas lines (CO₂/N₂) and are suitable for operating pressures of up to 30 bar.
The WORLDKEG fitting offers an end-user-friendly solution: standardized connections, easy handling, and optional compatibility with an affordable party pump. All fittings are tamper-proof and aseptically integrated directly into the lid – delivering a pressure-resistant, hygienic, and ready-to-fill solution.
