Frequently Asked Questions About Beer Backpack Prices and Quotations
The price list provides an initial overview of available beer backpack models, dispensing configurations and accessories. The final cost depends on the selected equipment, required quantity, delivery destination and current product availability. These answers explain how to read the price list and which details are needed for a complete quotation.
Are the prices in the PDF a binding offer?
No. The price list is intended as a general product and price overview. It does not replace an individual quotation or pro forma invoice.
Before an order is confirmed, the selected model, beverage configuration, accessories, quantity, availability and delivery costs must be checked. The formal quotation issued for the specific enquiry contains the applicable order value.
How can I check whether the displayed price list is still current?
Please check the revision date shown in the PDF and request confirmation before planning a purchase. Prices, model availability and accessory combinations may change after a price list has been published.
If a project is scheduled for a later date, a new quotation may be required closer to the planned order.
Do the listed prices include VAT?
No. The prices in the PDF are net prices and do not automatically include German or foreign VAT.
The tax treatment depends on the customer type, billing country, delivery country and applicable tax identification details. A valid company VAT number may be required for certain tax-exempt deliveries within the European Union.
Are transport and handling included in the product prices?
No. Shipping and any required handling are calculated separately. The amount depends on the destination, number of cartons, shipment weight, dimensions and selected transport service.
A delivery address or at least the destination country, postal code and city is required before transport costs can be calculated.
Which additional costs may arise for deliveries outside the European Union?
International shipments may be subject to import duties, local taxes, customs clearance charges or fees levied by the destination country. These amounts are normally not included in the Rocket Packs product or transport price.
The recipient is responsible for checking the local import requirements and providing any importer, tax or registration information requested by the carrier or customs authority.
Why do similar beer backpack models have different prices?
The final price reflects the container material, capacity, insulation, backpack construction, tap type and pressure equipment included in the selected configuration.
A model intended for carbonated beer requires different components from a gravity-fed version for still beverages. Two backpacks with the same nominal capacity may therefore have different equipment and prices.
Is the price different for still and carbonated beverages?
Yes. A backpack for a still beverage can operate by gravity in an appropriate configuration. Beer and other carbonated beverages require a pressure-compatible container and a suitable pressure supply.
The beverage type must therefore be stated when requesting a quotation. A lower-priced still-beverage configuration should not be ordered for beer solely because the capacity appears identical.
What is the difference between the Standard Tap and Premium Tap prices?
The Standard Tap provides a straightforward dispensing solution for suitable applications. The Premium Tap includes a compensator that allows the operator to regulate the beverage flow directly at the tap.
The Premium Tap is generally recommended for beer and other carbonated beverages because controlled flow adjustment can support a more manageable dispensing process. Beer temperature, pressure and filling method must still be set correctly.
Is a manual pressure pump included in every beer backpack price?
No. The included equipment depends on the exact version shown in the price list. A configuration for carbonated beverages may include a hand-operated air pump, while a still-beverage version may operate without separate pressure equipment.
The quotation should clearly identify whether a manual pump, CO2 equipment or another pressure accessory is included.
Is the CO2 kit included in the standard backpack price?
Normally, the CO2 kit is an optional accessory unless it is expressly included in the quotation. It consists of separate pressure components and is selected according to the container and intended operating procedure.
A CO2 system supplies dispensing pressure. It does not actively cool the beer and should not be considered a replacement for correct beverage temperature or preparation.
Which accessories may need to be added to the backpack price?
The required accessories depend on the beverage source, cups and service process. Possible additional items include:
- CO2 pressure equipment
- Filling or overflow line
- Keg connection accessories
- Filling funnel
- Universal cup dispenser
- Additional beverage hose or tap
- Replacement seals and fittings
- Waste bag or promotional flag
Only the components expressly listed in the quotation form part of the ordered configuration.
Is a filling kit always necessary?
Not every application requires the same filling equipment. A plastic container with an open filling port can be filled differently from a pressure-compatible stainless steel container supplied from a commercial beer keg.
Please describe the available keg, coupler or beverage source before selecting a filling accessory. Photographs of the existing connection are helpful when the keg system is unknown.
Does the listed container capacity equal the usable beer quantity?
Not necessarily. A container used for carbonated beverages requires free space above the liquid for pressure operation. It should therefore not automatically be filled to its complete nominal capacity.
The number of possible servings should be calculated using the permitted filling quantity rather than only the model designation. Allowance should also be made for foam, test pours and residual beverage in the system.
Should I choose the least expensive backpack that can hold the required quantity?
Capacity and price should not be considered separately from the application. The beverage, loaded weight, walking distance, expected service duration, insulation and refill process are also relevant.
A smaller system may be more practical when staff must walk for extended periods. A larger backpack can reduce refill frequency but creates a higher carrying weight.
Does the price list confirm that every model is available?
No. Inclusion in the PDF does not guarantee that a product is currently in stock or still in regular production.
Availability must be checked when the enquiry is received. Some models may be temporarily unavailable, available only in limited quantities or replaced by another configuration.
Can I reserve products at the price shown in the PDF?
A product is not reserved merely because an enquiry has been submitted or a price list has been downloaded. Reservation and order processing depend on the individual quotation, acceptance and agreed payment conditions.
For time-sensitive events, the requested delivery date should be stated at the beginning of the enquiry.
Are discounts available for larger quantities?
Projects involving larger quantities are calculated individually. The quotation may take account of the requested number of units, identical configurations, accessory requirements and packing arrangements.
Please state the complete expected quantity rather than requesting separate prices for individual units if the systems are intended for one project.
Can mixed backpack models be included in one quotation?
Yes. Different capacities or configurations can be listed in one quotation when they are required for the same customer or project.
Each model should be identified separately with its quantity, beverage type, tap option and required accessories. This helps prevent confusion between still-beverage and beer configurations.
Does the price include custom printing or graphic design?
No. The backpack price does not automatically include graphic design or printed advertising materials.
Depending on the model, paper graphics can be placed behind transparent display surfaces. The customer can prepare the inserts after the correct visible dimensions have been confirmed.
Can the backpack itself be manufactured in a completely custom design?
The standard price list covers the available Rocket Packs models and their regular equipment. Requests involving special colours, technical modifications or project-specific components must be assessed separately.
Not every modification is technically or economically possible, particularly for small quantities.
Is rental pricing shown in the international price list?
No. The PDF primarily presents products for purchase. Rental is not generally available for international deliveries.
Selected equipment may be available for temporary rental within Germany, subject to current stock, the requested period and the intended application. A separate rental quotation is required.
Can private customers purchase at the listed prices?
Rocket Packs sells directly to both private and commercial customers. The applicable VAT and billing requirements depend on the customer and delivery country.
Private customers should provide their complete billing and delivery address so that the total price including the applicable tax and transport can be calculated.
In which currency are quotations and invoices issued?
Quotations, pro forma invoices and final invoices are normally issued in euros. The customer is responsible for any bank charges, currency conversion costs or differences resulting from payment in another currency.
The amount credited to the Rocket Packs account must correspond to the invoiced euro amount.
Which payment terms apply to a standard order?
Standard orders are processed on the basis of full advance payment. After the configuration, availability and transport costs have been clarified, a pro forma invoice is issued for payment.
Production, preparation or shipment begins after the required payment has been received. Different terms are only valid when they are expressly agreed in writing for a specific project.
Can I place an order directly from the PDF?
The PDF does not function as an online shop or order form. Please send a written enquiry identifying the required model, version, quantity and destination.
Rocket Packs then checks the configuration and prepares an individual quotation or pro forma invoice.
What happens if I select an unsuitable version from the price list?
The intended application is reviewed before a formal quotation is prepared. If the selected configuration is not suitable for the stated beverage or filling method, an alternative available version may be proposed.
For this reason, the beverage and operating process should always be described rather than submitting only a page number or product name.
How long is a quotation valid?
The applicable validity period is stated in the individual quotation or pro forma invoice. Prices and availability should not be assumed to remain unchanged beyond that period.
A revised quotation may be necessary when the quantity, configuration, delivery address or requested delivery date changes.
Does receiving a quotation guarantee the requested delivery date?
No. The expected delivery period depends on current availability, order quantity, payment receipt, preparation time and transport conditions.
A delivery date is only binding when it has been expressly confirmed as such. Customers planning an event should allow sufficient time for order processing, transport, import clearance and operational testing.
What information is required for a complete price quotation?
Providing the following details allows the product and total delivery cost to be calculated more efficiently:
- Required backpack model or intended application
- Number of units
- Type and brand of beverage
- Still or carbonated beverage
- Preferred container capacity
- Standard Tap or Premium Tap
- Manual pump or CO2 preference
- Available keg or filling connection
- Required accessories
- Cup size and rim diameter
- Requested delivery date
- Complete billing address
- Complete delivery address
- VAT or company registration number, where applicable
If no model has yet been selected, describe the venue, expected serving volume, operating duration and planned refill procedure. This information helps identify a suitable configuration before the final price is calculated.
