Tamper-evident caps for beer and beverage kegs
Approximate delivery time between 3 and 4 weeks.
Plastic protection and tamper-evident caps for keg valves, supplied in full boxes or pallets for breweries, beverage producers, packers and distributors. The range allows you to select the type of cap according to the valve or keg system, the color and the logistics format.
Indicative lead time: 3–4 weeks.
How to choose the right cap
Selection should be made primarily by the type of keg valve or connection, not only by the external appearance. This data sheet groups the commercial configurations available for A–M (Flat), G (Grundy), S–D–U (Sankey) and KeyKeg systems. Before placing a volume order, check the type of valve used on your kegs.

Function of the tamper-evident cap
The cap is placed over the keg valve/connection area to provide external physical protection during storage, handling and distribution. It also facilitates visual identification of the keg by color and can be used as a presentation or identification element when customized versions are used.
The cap does not replace the keg valve nor does it constitute, by itself, the primary closure that contains the beverage: it is an external element for protection, identification and visual tamper evidence.

Colors and identification

Among the configured options are white, blue, green, yellow, red, black, purple and gold, depending on the type of cap selected.
The manufacturer’s documentation also includes specific ranges and color references, including options made from recycled material. Actual availability depends on the combination of model, color, quantity and production.
Material and customization options
GevaPlast manufactures plastic keg caps and offers plain, printed or embossed customization depending on the project and volume. There is also a documented range made with 100% recycled material. If you need a customized cap with a logo, text, product ID or a specific color, please check feasibility before placing your order.

Beverage brands: differentiation by colors and the possibility of studying customization.

Order by box or by pallet
The box format allows you to work with a smaller industrial volume and is suitable for periodic production runs or for validating a configuration before moving on to larger quantities. The pallet format is aimed at manufacturers and packers with recurring consumption and concentrates a higher number of caps per shipment.
