In the particular case of beer, its sensitive character makes to doubly important to find the right type of packaging that will guarantee that the beer maintains the flavor, freshness and quality it leaves the brewery with. Beer stored in THIELMANN stainless steel kegs preserves its original physical, chemical and sensory properties for longer periods of time. A big part of this is to ensure that refillable stainless steel kegs are subjected to the correct external and internal washing processes before each use. As there is no specific regulation defining these washing processes, various considerations have to be taken into account to ensure the hygiene of the keg and that the beer is not altered by agents used during the cleaning process. **Please complete the form below to download your complimentary copy of this whitepaper to your device.** [ DOWNLOAD ](https://www.thielmann.com/en/knowledge-base/cleaning-of-stainless-steel-kegs#til-contact-form) ## DOWNLOAD YOUR PAPERS COMPLETE THIS FORM TO GET IMMEDIATE ACCESS TO THE DOCUMENT YOU REQUESTED ### RELATED ARTICLES As one of the world’s leading manufacturer of stainless steel containers, THIELMANN has accumulated significant expertise across a wide range of industries over many years.Our experts regularly compile educational material and analyses such as our Whitepapers and Case Studies, which are an excellent way to share in our knowledge and expertise and to find out more about our industry, product and application-specific insights and experience.We invite you to peruse our informative material and welcome any questions or enquiries you may have.
