Advantages

Profitability

The first advantage of wine on tap is financial: every glass poured is a glass sold, with no leftover wine thrown away. Profitability comes down to losses avoided, margin per glass, and packaging management costs.

  • Reduce losses: wine protected from air no longer oxidizes, no leftover wine from an opened bottle is thrown away.
  • Improve margin: serving by the glass from a keg controls the cost of every glass poured.
  • Optimize costs: fewer packaging materials to buy, store and recycle than with bottles.

Advantages

Quality

Wine served on tap remains the exact wine the winegrower packaged: the flexible liner protects it from air, and the dispensing gas never passes through it. Quality lies in this barrier — from the first to the last glass of the keg, service stays consistent.

  • Wine preservation: shielded from air, it keeps its qualities for up to 120 days after opening.
  • Consistency of service: the same temperature and the same wine, from the first to the last glass of the keg.
  • Preservation of organoleptic qualities: the gas pushes the liner without ever coming into contact with the wine.

Advantages

Productivity

Pouring a glass on tap is faster than uncorking, serving and recorking a bottle. At the counter as in the dining room, productivity comes from simpler actions: tap service can represent on the order of 17% of time saved.

  • Time savings: a glass is poured at the tap, with no uncorking or recorking of a bottle.
  • Ease of use: a keg connects and is replaced just like a beer keg.
  • Simplified management: fewer product references to stock, less glass to sort and dispose of.

Advantages

Environmental impact

Reusable and deposit-based, the ECOFASS keg reduces packaging at the source: one keg replaces the equivalent of 26 bottles of 75 cl, i.e. 19 kg of glass avoided. Environmental impact is also measured in what is no longer wasted.

  • Packaging reduction: the deposit-based keg is reused, whereas every bottle serves only once.
  • Waste reduction: protected wine no longer ends up down the drain with opened bottles.
  • Life-cycle analysis: the keg's impact is assessed across its whole cycle, from filling to deposit return.
