These slimline polycarbonate jugs hold 1.7 litres and come supplied with lids, sold as a pack of four. Made from polycarbonate rather than glass or standard plastic, they offer a practical balance of clarity, light weight, and resistance to the kind of knocks and drops that are routine in busy service settings.

Polycarbonate is a common choice in commercial beverage service for good reason. It handles repeated use, dishwasher cycles, and the general wear of a working environment considerably better than glass alternatives, without the risk of shattering. The slimline profile keeps them manageable on trays and counters where space is typically limited.

These jugs suit a range of front-of-house and back-of-house uses, including water service, soft drinks, juice, and cold beverage preparation. The included lid helps maintain temperature and reduces spillage during carry and service. Practical advantages include:

  • Shatter-resistant polycarbonate construction reduces breakage risk in service
  • Lids included to retain temperature and reduce spillage
  • Slimline form factor suits trays, counters, and fridges
  • Supplied as a pack of four, reducing per-unit cost for multi-table operations
  • Lightweight compared to equivalent glass jugs, reducing fatigue during busy service

For most hospitality operations — restaurants, hotels, cafés, contract catering, and event venues — a pack of four covers a reasonable section or station. Sites running larger dining rooms or high-turnover events may find it worth ordering multiple packs to maintain a sufficient rotation while others are being washed.

If you're unsure how many jugs your operation needs, or whether this style is the right fit for your service format, the team is happy to help you work it out.

Frequently asked questions

Are these jugs suitable for use in a commercial dishwasher?

Polycarbonate is generally dishwasher-compatible and is a common choice in commercial settings for that reason. It withstands repeated wash cycles better than many standard plastics, though prolonged exposure to very high temperatures over time can affect clarity. Following your dishwasher manufacturer's recommended cycle settings for plasticware is advisable.

How many packs would a typical restaurant need for water service?

That depends on your cover count, table layout, and dishwasher turnaround time. As a rough guide, a 40-cover restaurant running continuous lunch and dinner service would typically want enough jugs to cover all tables simultaneously plus a working rotation in the wash. For most operations that means two to four packs, but higher-turnover or event-focused venues often benefit from carrying more.

Can these jugs be used for hot beverages?

Polycarbonate has reasonable thermal tolerance, but these jugs are primarily suited to cold beverage service — water, juice, soft drinks, and similar applications. For hot beverage service such as coffee or tea, purpose-designed hot beverage jugs with appropriate insulation and materials would be a more suitable choice.
