You love nature? We do, too!
The beer-in-box system is eco-friendly, in particular for long distance transport scenarios. Here is why:
100% Recyclable – All components of the beer-in-box packaging such as the bags, the valves and cardboard boxes are 100% recyclable. Because the bags sit loosly in the boxes, separating the PE material from the cardboard is really easy. Cardboard boxes from recycled paper make the system even more eco-friendly.
Reducing CO2 footprint - The high packaging density and the light weight packaging dramatically improve the transport efficiency compared to returnable packaging such as KEGs. Based on the one-way concept, beer-in-box saves the energy to return the heavy empty packaging. Further, it avoids energy, chemicals and water for the necessary cleaning of returnable packaging. And finally, the energy to manufacture the one-way packaging is significantly lower compared to returnable packaging.
