What is color coding?

The market leading spears from Micro Matic comes (optional) with a unique color and year coding for preventive maintenance.

Color-coding of the spears enables camera-controlled or mechanical separation of kegs that are due for routine, scheduled maintenance which Micro Matic recommends at approximately 7-8 year cycles.

​​​​​​​In 2024 the color-code was Light Green; in 2025 it is Blue, and in 2026 it will be Red. (Note that there will be a 3-4 month transition period each year from one color to the next).

Below you can find the color markings for the years 2024-2033:

2024 Light Green (RAL: 6019)

2025 Blue (RAL: 5010)

2026 Red (RAL: 3020)
