(Petainer) -- Petainer has launched alternative to metal kegs for draught beverages. It is a lightweight beverage container manufactured in recyclable PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) which is designed for one-way use. The keg is available with one-way, low cost fittings which allow it to be connected to existing tapping systems for draught beer.
Petainer Kegs, unlike other plastic variants and metal kegs, can be supplied either complete and ready for filling or as preforms' that can be blown near the point of use. This second option provides further environmental and economic benefits.
The benefits of Petainer Kegs compared with metal kegs include lower total costs of ownership, reduced environmental impact, new market opportunities and easier response to short-term peaks and troughs in demand.
