19.5L Hybrid Keg / Sixtel
The Petainer 19.5 L Hybrid Keg, also referred to as a Sixtel, is a one-way packaging solution designed to lower costs and simplify distribution. Made from lightweight PET, the keg is fully recyclable after use, making it a more sustainable option compared with steel. Its compatibility with standard steel keg filling lines and fittings means it can slot seamlessly into your existing production. Rigorously tested against supply chain stresses and environmental factors, the 19.5 L Hybrid Keg delivers the same reliability as steel, without the expense and return logistics.
