Vacuum Jugs

Vacuum Jugs are insulated beverage servers designed to keep coffee, tea, hot water and chilled drinks at the ideal temperature for longer service periods. This range includes compact tabletop jugs, larger pump vacuum jugs and spare lids in a choice of stainless steel and polypropylene finishes. They are widely used in hotels, cafes, conference venues and self-service breakfast or meeting rooms where reliable temperature control and quick service are essential. Robust construction, secure lids and easy-grip handles help maintain hygiene, reduce waste and support efficient front of house beverage service.

How to choose the right Vacuum Jugs

• Match jug capacity to service volume, from small 0.3L and 0.5L jugs for table service to 1.5L and 2.2L options for buffets and conferences.
• Decide between stainless steel for maximum durability and heat retention or polypropylene for lighter weight and cost-effective use.
• Consider whether a standard vacuum jug or a pump-action vacuum jug will best suit your layout and self-service requirements.
• Choose dedicated coffee, tea or hot water jugs to avoid flavour transfer and keep beverage stations clearly organised.
• Check footprint and height to ensure jugs fit neatly on counters, beverage trolleys and under shelving in your service area.
• Look for models with compatible spare lids so you can easily replace worn parts instead of the entire jug.

Care and maintenance

• Clean vacuum jugs after each service using warm water and a mild detergent, rinsing thoroughly to remove any residue.
• Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals on stainless steel and chrome finishes to prevent scratching and dulling.
• Descale interiors regularly in hard water areas to maintain insulation performance and beverage taste.
• Inspect lids, pump mechanisms and seals frequently, replacing worn or damaged parts to prevent leaks and spills.
• Allow jugs to dry fully with lids off before storage to minimise odours and bacterial growth.
• Store jugs upright in a clean, dry cupboard or on a dedicated shelf to protect spouts, handles and finishes.

Pair these jugs with our insulated beverage servers, drink dispensers, water jugs and wider tea and coffeeware ranges to complete your beverage service setup.
