what are keg collars?
Keg collars are insertable rings placed around the top of a keg to protect the valve and neck from damage during handling and transit. They also serve as branding surfaces and can include printed messaging, logos, or handling instructions. Keg collars are typically made from sturdy corrugated board to withstand repeated use and stacking.

Keg collars help breweries and beverage brands identify kegs quickly, communicate key details, and reinforce branding across storage, distribution, and service.
