Kammac plc is having a record year with regards to sales across its keg and cask range which comprises of 9G cask, 4.5G pins and 30L, 50L kegs. Great news for all the team within keg and cask business, especially Nicola and Kayleigh who run the Sales and Customer support department. Driven by customer satisfaction and product quality the sales team has been able to promote the best price with the confidence that the quality and reliability of the product, delivered within 10 days of order, will not let the current and growing customer base down. New investment and a plan to grow the business through direct sales based on the above qualities, plus the capability to offer all clients the ‘Rent to Own’ scheme through its long term partner, Keg Logistics, is paying off.

The first stainless steel deep drawn keg was introduced to the market over thirty years ago, and using the existing deep drawn stainless body, has mechanically integrated two polypropylene chimes into the steel body, resulting in a lighter, ecologically worthwhile and thus a smarter alternative to conventional all stainless steel kegs. Combining innovative design and contemporary materials allows the ECO KEG to be produced to a lower tare weight, in the case of a 30 litre size, some 20% lighter, without compromising strength or safety. Reducing the weight of containers has obvious advantages in health and safety, as well as environ- mentally, as this helps breweries to cut out transport costs of their supply chain. In addition to this weight reduction, the ECO KEG will also significantly reduce noise levels, with the KEGs being rolled on the stackable PP rings instead of expanded steel rolling bands which flatten over time. The PP chimes are also stackable for added safety and easy to pick up and stack in the cellar. The chimes themselves are designed in such a way, that, similar to shock absorbers on cars, they can prevent damage on impact. The 30 and 50 litre ECO KEGs, with Euro diameter, are manufactured to the same height as the conventional all stainless steel kegs or PLUS KEGs and so will run alongside standard kegs on the keg filling line and fit on the same pallet. Running parallel with existing populations has big advantages for UK craft brewers who use a variety of options in their day to day business. The ECO KEG will always stand out as the property of a particular brewery, making a speedy return more likely. Kegs are a major asset for the UK brewery industry, but as millions of pounds in value still go missing each year, their security is of paramount importance, particularly with rising steel prices. Combining materials makes the ECO KEG far less attractive to metal thieves, due to their having to separate the materials and having a significantly lower original stainless steel content. To clearly denote a brewery’s ownership of their kegs, ECO KEGs can be individ- ually branded. For example, the KEG chimes can be coloured, have a name and logo applied and be equipped with a transponder, which also brings more transparency to logistics and allows comprehensive container management. The ECO KEG can be produced in a range of sizes from 10 to 50 litres.
