From Koetter Press Room

For K-RAX®, safety has never been a checkbox — it’s our blueprint.

For K-RAX®, safety has never been a checkbox — it’s our blueprint.

This recognition reinforces what drives us- building systems that raise the bar for safety, strength, and performance. Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about the barrels—it’s about the people who make the industry possible.

The K-RAX® team was honored to receive Barrel Storage Rickhouse System “Best in Class” for structural integrity and risk performance by Global Insurance Partners.

This recognition means more than a title. It’s a signal that our engineering standards have set a new benchmark for the distilling industry. In a world where one weak beam can jeopardize millions in aging product, the difference between a traditional rack and a K-RAX® system isn’t just material — it’s measurable.

Every rickhouse we build considers the physics of load, the science of airflow, and the reality of long-term risk. Fire mitigation, seismic resilience, code compliance, these are the quiet details that separate a good idea from a dependable one.

Being recognized by insurers isn’t glamorous. But it’s validation that K-RAX® has earned trust in the one place it counts most: where liability meets legacy.

Because safety isn’t the opposite of tradition. It’s what keeps tradition alive.
