Rebranding
Achieve a unified market identity
You can replace the top chime and get a new one with embossed lettering according to your specification. As an alternative we can knurl out the existing embossing and apply your logo or brand name on the keg body. This way you do not only have a proof of ownership but also a standardized brand appearance.
Service areas:
- Neck conversion to standardize your keg fleet
- Usage of threaded standard necks (14TPI)
- Increase the value of used kegs
Neck Conversion
Standardize your keg fleet
Many of our customers have non-threaded necks in their fleet and want to use standard threaded necks (14 TPI). We have developed a patented process to convert non-threaded necks into threaded standard necks (14 TPI).
