Did you know that #steelkegs are the most sustainable packaging form? They can be reused for up to 30 years and are 100% recyclable, which can significantly reduce your carbon footprint. In a recent trial, Diageo found that using REUSABLE steel kegs for #SmirnoffVodka in Dublin, Ireland, could cut carbon emissions in half. Each #keg is anticipated to reduce the use of a minimum of 500 single-use glass bottles. This is great news for the environment and for the steel keg industry. We are proud to be a part of a solution towards a greener, more sustainable planet.

Cheers, CGA by NIQ and Draftline Technologies, for shining some much-needed light on why draft beer is so important.

There are an estimated 1.5 million draft lines in the U.S., with the no.1 handle nationwide being open, presenting tremendous growth opportunities for savvy brewers and distributors... No wonder #draftbeer distribution points increased 8% over the past 12 months. Click the link to learn more - https://lnkd.in/eD6YA_4h Jennifer Hauke Matthew Crompton

While we often say that a steel keg's lifetime is around 30 years, this keg—still in use 41 years after it was first made in 1983—shows just how durable they really are! Every refill and reuse of a #keg like this one saves thousands of single-use containers from landfills, making #steelkegs an eco-friendly and economical choice for #beverage transport. Proof that steel kegs don’t just meet expectations; they exceed them. Cheers, Alejandro Galvez, for shining a light on REUSABLE steel kegs. #Sustainability #SteelKegs #CircularEconomy #ReusablePackaging #EcoFriendly
