Bag-in-box beer
In a partnership with Bavarian brewer Ankerbrau, Rapak has launched a bag-in-box system for the keg beer market. The technology, which is suitable for all types of beers, offers a low-cost alternative to the traditional keg.
The beer is filled in 25 L Rapak bags using the tailor-made Autokap 650 semi-automatic beer filler and then packed in boxes.
The bag-in-box system for beer benefits users via lower transport costs; a longer shelf life; and a firmer, longer-lasting foam on the beer.
A key to this packaging is the removal of CO2 from the beer after brewing and a specially developed carbonator box which reintroduces it at the trade outlet. This system can be used in all outlets currently using kegs.
