Gaffel's carnival keg won a bronze medal at the international Can of the Year 2022 competition. This award has been held since 1996 and recognizes the year's most significant developments and innovations in the can packaging industry. The award was presented in Prague during the Canmaker Summit to the Öhringen-based packaging company Envases, which produced the Gaffel special edition.

The jury particularly praised the creative use of a Spotify playlist via QR code on the party keg. The carnival special keg was designed as a music box this year, with plenty of confetti and song quotes from the bands Brings and Kasalla, friends of Gaffel. In addition, there was plenty of music in the 5l can. The scanned QR code led to the Gaffel channel in the Spotify app, where the playlist contained over 10 hours of carnival music.

"We are very happy about this award and of course for our customer Gaffel," says Peer Brämer (Head of Sales Beverage) enthusiastically.
