Kegs: Making a Difference Across the Island

Rarotonga Brewery extends its commitment to sustainability by providing kegs to establishments all around the island. Just one 50L keg is equal to a staggering 150 single-use bottles. By opting for kegs, our partner establishments are contributing to the reduction of millions of bottles that would otherwise end up in the landfill. Together, we are making a significant impact on waste reduction.

Collaboration for a Greener Future

At Rarotonga Brewery, we understand that reducing waste requires collaboration throughout the supply chain. That's why we actively work with our suppliers to minimise waste. Our grain sacks, which would otherwise be discarded, find new life in the hands of Taro growers, fishermen, and others who have a need for them. By repurposing our waste, we contribute to a circular economy and create a positive impact on the community.

Rarotonga Brewery goes beyond waste reduction by supporting local agriculture and livestock. The malt waste generated during our brews is eagerly collected by pig farmers who are often waiting before we even start brewing at 4:30 am. By providing this valuable resource to farmers, we reduce waste while supporting sustainable farming practices.
