With its comprehensive range of keg washer/fillers specifically designed for the craft sector, Lambrechts is the perfect partner for craft brewers requirements, according to its UK spokesperson, Mike Hickman. With its global reputation for sterilising kegs, you can have total confidence in filling ‘’pay-per-fill’’ rented kegs or brewing the most individualistic beers of any style, whilst still saving energy without compromising quality

From individual standalone washing and filling heads, to the ubiquitous two-head semi-automatic Compact machine, these are ideal for those brewers requiring up to 35 kegs washed and filled per hour Alternatively 60 one-way PET kegs or pre-washed steel kegs

For these brewers looking at increasing efficiency in and around their kegging area, the Monobloc Slimline 50 is the answer Taking up a footprint of only 4 x 4 m including conveyor, it maximizes the output of washed/filled kegs at 55 per hour for the minimum footprint

The larger Monoblocs are capable of washing and filling over 80 kegs per hour with built in external keg washer and check weigher We can also offer a range of keg handling solutions including robots, as they become virtually standard on continental and US installs
