Pujadas Century Aluminium Cookware

This is a 400mm diameter aluminium lid from Pujadas, designed to sit with their Century aluminium cookware range. It does what a good lid should do in a working kitchen: retain heat during cooking, reduce energy loss, and keep contents at temperature during short holding periods between service stages.

Aluminium conducts heat efficiently, which means the lid responds quickly to temperature changes rather than lagging behind. In a busy kitchen where pans move between heat sources and pass-through areas, that responsiveness helps maintain consistent cooking conditions without unnecessary energy use.

A few practical points worth noting:

• Aluminium construction gives good thermal conductivity with a relatively low weight
• Tubular stainless steel handles are designed to stay cooler during use, reducing burn risk
• Handles are fixed with four rivets each, which holds up better under the handling stress of a working kitchen
• The material is fully recyclable, which may be relevant for operators with sustainability procurement criteria

This lid is sized for use with 400mm diameter pans and is part of the Pujadas Century aluminium cookware system. If your kitchen uses a different pan diameter across your batterie, it is worth confirming compatibility before ordering, as lids are not universally interchangeable across sizes or manufacturers.

Suited to catering kitchens, pub kitchens, and hospitality operations already using or considering the Pujadas aluminium cookware range. For operations needing larger capacities or different pan formats, other sizes are available in the same range.

If you are building out a cookware set and want guidance on which sizes and configurations suit your menu and service volume, the team is happy to help you work through it.

The Pujadas Ø400 aluminium stock pot is a large-format cooking vessel designed for the demands of professional kitchens. Built from pure aluminium, it is well suited to batch cooking tasks — stocks, soups, broths, pasta water and large-scale sauce production — where consistent heat and a reliable workhorse pot are more important than anything else.

Aluminium conducts heat quickly and evenly across the base and sides, which matters when you are bringing large volumes of liquid up to temperature during a busy service. The extra-thick base is a practical detail: it resists warping under repeated high-heat use, maintains full contact with the heat source, and avoids the hot spots that can scorch stocks or cause uneven reduction. Over time, a pot that holds its shape uses energy more efficiently and performs more predictably.

A few features worth noting for day-to-day use:

• Thick-gauge aluminium construction resists impact and deformation over heavy daily use
• Extra-thick base maintains full contact with heat source for efficient, even heating
• Tubular stainless steel handles insulate against heat transfer during handling
• Four-rivet handle attachment on each side for secure, safe lifting under load
• Pure aluminium material supports recyclability at end of product life

The pot is supplied without a lid, which is worth factoring in if covered simmering or storage is part of your workflow — a compatible lid can be sourced separately. At this diameter, the pot is a practical fit for medium to high-volume operations: hotel kitchens, busy restaurant prep sections, and catering production environments. Smaller operations producing modest batch volumes may find a smaller size more practical, while very high-throughput sites with continuous production may want to consider a larger or heavier-duty vessel.

If you are unsure which size or specification suits your kitchen's output, we are happy to talk it through before you order.

This is a large-format aluminium stock pot from Pujadas, part of their Century Aluminium cookware range. It is sold without a lid and is intended for high-volume preparation work — stocks, soups, broths, sauces and similar long-cook, large-batch tasks that are a routine part of professional kitchen operations.

Aluminium is a well-established material choice for stock pots at this scale. It conducts heat quickly and evenly across the base and sides, which matters when you are bringing large volumes of liquid up to temperature during a busy prep shift. The extra-thick base on this pot is designed to resist deformation over time, maintaining full contact with the heat source and avoiding the uneven heating that a warped base causes. That kind of structural integrity becomes noticeable after extended daily use.

From a practical standpoint, the key features translate into meaningful day-to-day advantages:

• Even heat distribution reduces the risk of hot spots and scorching during long simmers
• Thick base resists warping under repeated high-heat use, extending working life
• Tubular stainless steel handles stay cooler during service, reducing burn risk
• Four-rivet handle attachment provides reliable security when moving a full, heavy pot
• Pure aluminium construction is lightweight relative to capacity, easing handling during prep

At this diameter, the pot is suited to range-top cooking on commercial hob suites or solid-top ranges. It is worth confirming your hob size and ring configuration before ordering, as a pot of this footprint requires an appropriate burner arrangement to heat effectively. It is not designed for induction unless your kitchen runs induction-compatible bases separately.

This pot will suit catering operations running large-batch preparation regularly — hotel kitchens, contract caterers, event catering teams and large restaurant operations among them. For smaller kitchens or lower-volume prep, a smaller capacity within the same range would be a more practical fit. Conversely, very high-throughput sites may want to consider heavier-gauge options designed for continuous, all-day cooking cycles.

If you are unsure whether this size is the right match for your prep volumes or hob setup, our team is happy to talk it through with you.

The Pujadas Ø320 aluminium stock pot is a heavy-gauge batch cooking vessel designed for professional kitchen use. Part of the Pujadas Century Aluminium Cookware range, it is built for the kind of sustained, repeated use that comes with daily stock preparation, soup service, and large-quantity sauce work. It is supplied without a lid, so teams using it alongside existing lidded pots in the same range will find it fits naturally into an established setup.

In a working kitchen, aluminium earns its place through thermal conductivity — it heats quickly and distributes warmth evenly across the base and walls, which matters when you are bringing a full pot up to temperature before service. The extra-thick base helps prevent the hot-spotting and deformation that can affect thinner cookware over time, keeping the pot flat and in consistent contact with the heat source whether you are working on gas, solid top, or electric ranges.

Practical operational advantages include:

• Even heat distribution reduces the risk of scorching during extended simmering
• Reinforced base maintains shape under repeated heavy use and high temperatures
• Tubular stainless steel handles stay cooler to the touch during service
• Four-rivet handle attachment per side provides reliable security when lifting a full pot
• Pure aluminium construction keeps the pot relatively lightweight for its capacity

Aluminium cookware of this type works across most commercial heat sources but is not suitable for induction hobs unless used with an induction diffuser plate. It is worth confirming your hob type before ordering. The pot is supplied without a lid — if covered cooking is needed, a compatible lid should be sourced separately from the Pujadas range.

This pot is well suited to kitchens producing stocks, soups, blanching liquids, or bulk sauces on a daily basis — from mid-sized restaurant kitchens through to contract catering and hospitality operations. For very high-volume sites running continuous production, a larger capacity vessel may be worth considering alongside this size.

If you are unsure whether this size fits your service volumes or want to discuss how it works alongside your existing cookware, the team is happy to help you work it through.

The Pujadas Ø200mm aluminium sauté pan is a straightforward, well-made piece of cookware from the Century Aluminium range, designed for everyday use across professional kitchens. Formed from pure aluminium sheet, it is a reliable workhorse pan suited to sautéing, shallow frying, and reducing sauces at pace during service.

Aluminium conducts heat quickly and evenly, which is genuinely useful in a busy kitchen where chefs need immediate response from the pan rather than waiting for heat to build. The extra-thick base helps maintain consistent contact with the heat source — gas, electric solid top, or induction aside — reducing the risk of hot spots and the uneven cooking that comes with a warped or deformed pan over time. The additional material thickness also means the pan holds up better to the daily knocks and rough handling that are simply part of kitchen life.

A few practical points worth noting:

• Pure aluminium construction gives fast, responsive heat transfer across the base
• Reinforced base resists deformation and maintains flat contact with the heat source
• Tubular stainless steel handle stays cooler to the touch than the pan body
• Four-rivet handle attachment provides a secure, stable connection under regular use
• Lightweight build reduces fatigue during extended prep or service periods

It is worth noting that bare aluminium is not suitable for induction hobs, and the pan should not be used in a dishwasher if you want to preserve the finish and extend its service life. Hand washing is the standard recommendation for aluminium cookware in a commercial setting.

This size is well suited to à la carte service, smaller brigade kitchens, or as part of a set of pans across different sizes. For higher-volume or continuous-service environments, a larger diameter or heavier-gauge model may be more appropriate. If you are equipping a kitchen from scratch or adding to an existing range, the team is happy to talk through what would suit your operation best.

The Pujadas Ø600 Aluminium Casserole is a large-format, lidless cooking vessel from the Century Aluminium range, built for professional kitchens where volume and reliability matter. Made from pure aluminium sheet, it is a straightforward, workhorse piece of cookware designed to handle repeated daily use across a busy service.

Aluminium is a practical choice for high-volume cooking because it heats quickly and evenly, reducing hot spots and helping maintain consistent results across large batches. The extra-thick base is particularly important at this diameter — it resists deformation over time, keeping the pan in full contact with the heat source and avoiding the uneven cooking that warped bases cause. In a busy kitchen, that kind of reliability across a long service period is worth more than it might first appear.

From an operational standpoint, this casserole offers several practical advantages:

• Fast, even heat distribution reduces cooking times and supports consistent batch results
• Reinforced base resists warping under regular heavy use
• Heat-insulating tubular stainless steel handles reduce burn risk during handling
• Four rivets per handle provide a secure, long-lasting attachment under service conditions
• Pure aluminium construction is fully recyclable and straightforward to clean

As an open vessel without a lid, this casserole suits applications where reduction, braising without steam retention, or easy access during cooking is needed. It is not designed for induction hobs — operators with induction ranges should confirm compatibility with their heat source before ordering.

The Ø600 size is well suited to central production kitchens, cook-chill operations, contract catering, and large institutional sites cooking at scale. For smaller kitchens or lower service volumes, smaller diameters in the same range are available. For sites needing lid retention or alternative materials, other options within our cookware catalogue may be more appropriate.

If you are unsure whether this size is the right fit for your setup, our team are happy to talk it through with you.

The Pujadas Ø180 aluminium sauce pan is a straightforward, well-made saucepan from Pujadas's Century range, built for the demands of professional kitchen use. Constructed from pure aluminium sheet, it is designed to conduct heat quickly and evenly, making it a reliable choice for sauces, stocks, reductions, and general stove-top work across a busy service.

Aluminium heats faster than many alternative materials, which suits kitchens where speed matters and energy efficiency is a practical concern. The extra-thick base on this pan resists deformation over time, which is important in a commercial setting where pans are subjected to prolonged heat, heavy use, and the occasional knock. A warped base loses contact with flat induction or solid-top surfaces and wastes energy — the reinforced construction here is intended to prevent that.

• Pure aluminium construction for fast, responsive heat transfer
• Thickened base resists warping and maintains full contact with heat source
• Tubular stainless steel handles stay cooler during service
• Four-rivet handle attachment for secure, long-term fixing
• 100% recyclable aluminium material

The tubular stainless steel handles are designed to reduce heat transfer to the grip, which is a practical safety consideration during a busy pass. The four-rivet fixing per handle is a detail worth noting — handle failure is one of the more common wear points on commercial cookware, and the heavier attachment adds longevity.

This size is well suited to smaller sections, sauce work, and à la carte kitchens. Higher-volume operations or those needing larger batch capacity may find a bigger pan from the same range more appropriate. It is worth confirming compatibility with your existing heat sources before ordering, particularly if induction is in use.

If you are building out a cookware set or are unsure which sizes suit your menu and volume best, the team is happy to help you think it through.

The Pujadas Ø320 aluminium sauce pot is a large-capacity, lidless cooking vessel from the Pujadas Century Aluminium range, designed for professional kitchen use. At this diameter it sits at the heavier end of the sauce pot category, suited to batch cooking, stock reduction, and high-volume sauce or soup preparation where a substantial pot is needed on a regular basis.

Aluminium is a well-established material in professional cookware for good reason. It conducts heat quickly and evenly across the base and sides, which helps reduce hot spots and supports more consistent results during longer cooking processes. The thickened base used in this range resists the warping that can affect lighter-gauge pots over time, keeping the vessel in full contact with the heat source throughout service.

In practical terms, the construction offers several day-to-day advantages for kitchen teams:

• Even heat distribution reduces the need for constant stirring and monitoring
• Thickened base maintains contact with the hob surface, supporting energy efficiency
• Tubular stainless steel handles remain cooler to the touch during service
• Four-rivet handle attachment per side provides a secure, stable grip under load
• Pure aluminium construction is straightforward to clean and relatively lightweight for its size

The pot is sold without a lid, which suits applications where a lid is not required or where operators already hold compatible lids in their existing batterie. It is worth confirming lid compatibility separately if that is a requirement.

This size is well suited to medium and larger commercial kitchens — restaurants, hotel kitchens, contract catering operations, and central production units where batch volumes are consistently high. For lighter or lower-volume use, a smaller diameter from the same range may be more practical. For very large-scale production work, heavier-gauge or larger-format vessels may be worth considering.

If you are unsure whether this size fits your usual batch volumes or hob configuration, our team is happy to talk it through before you order.

The Pujadas Ø400 aluminium casserole is a large-format cooking vessel from the Century Aluminium range, designed for professional kitchen use. Made from pure aluminium, it is intended for volume cooking tasks — stocks, sauces, braised dishes, and similar preparations — where consistent heat transfer and straightforward handling matter more than anything else.

Aluminium conducts heat rapidly and distributes it evenly, which is useful in a busy service kitchen where bringing large quantities of liquid up to temperature quickly reduces waiting time. The extra-thick base helps maintain contact with the heat source and resists the warping that can occur with lighter-gauge cookware over time. In practical terms, that means less uneven cooking and a longer working life before the pan needs replacing.

A few points that make this casserole well suited to professional use:

• Thick gauge construction resists deformation under repeated heavy use
• Even base contact with heat source improves cooking consistency
• Tubular stainless steel handles stay cooler during service, reducing burn risk
• Four-rivet handle attachment provides secure, stable handling when the pan is full
• Pure aluminium construction is fully recyclable at end of life

At 400mm in diameter, this is a large vessel. It is most practical on a range with sufficient burner output or on a commercial induction or solid-top hob that can accommodate the base size. It is supplied without a lid, so a suitable cover will need to be sourced separately if required for your cooking method.

This size is well suited to high-volume operations — large restaurant kitchens, contract catering, and institutional catering where batch cooking is routine. Smaller operations or those with limited hob space may find a smaller diameter from the same range more practical. For sites cooking at exceptional scale, heavier-duty stock pot options may be worth considering.

If you are unsure which size or specification best fits your kitchen's workflow, the team is happy to talk it through before you order.

The Pujadas Ø220 Rounded Sauce Pan is a straightforward, well-made aluminium saucepan from the Century Aluminium range, intended for professional kitchen use. The rounded profile suits general sauce work, reductions, and liquid-based preparations where consistent heat across the base and sides is useful.

Aluminium is a practical choice for commercial cookware — it heats quickly and distributes heat evenly, which helps when you need to bring liquids up to temperature efficiently during a busy service. The heavier gauge construction used in this range resists the warping that can occur with lighter pans over time, keeping the base flat and in full contact with the heat source.

A few features are worth noting for day-to-day kitchen use:

• Thick base construction helps prevent deformation with regular use on commercial hobs
• Tubular stainless steel handles are designed to stay cooler than the pan body during use
• Four-rivet handle attachment provides a secure, stable fixing under kitchen conditions
• Pure aluminium construction supports good thermal conductivity for efficient heating

In terms of practical considerations, aluminium cookware is not suitable for induction hobs unless used with an induction interface disc. It is compatible with gas and solid-top ranges. Aluminium can react with highly acidic or alkaline ingredients over extended cooking periods, which is worth bearing in mind depending on your menu.

This pan is well suited to smaller operations, catering teams, and kitchen sections where a reliable everyday saucepan is needed without the added weight or cost of stainless steel. For sites with particularly high-volume sauce production or extended cooking times, a heavier-duty option from the range may be worth considering.

If you are building out a cookware set or are unsure which sizes best fit your section, we are happy to talk it through.

The Pujadas Ø320 aluminium casserole is a straightforward, well-made cooking vessel from a manufacturer with a long-standing presence in professional kitchens. Built from pure aluminium, it is designed primarily for stove-top use where even heat distribution and quick response to temperature changes are more useful than the heat retention properties of heavier cast materials.

Aluminium conducts heat rapidly and evenly across the base and sides, which makes this style of pan well suited to sauces, braised dishes, stocks, and bulk vegetable cookery where consistent temperature control matters. The extra-thick base helps the pan maintain contact with the heat source and resists the warping that can occur with thinner-gauge alternatives used in high-frequency service.

For kitchens running this pan through heavy daily use, a few practical points are worth noting:

• Stainless steel tubular handles stay cooler than the pan body and are secured with four rivets per handle for long-term reliability
• The aluminium construction keeps the pan lighter than equivalent cast iron or steel options, reducing fatigue during service
• Pure aluminium reacts with strongly acidic or alkaline ingredients over time — worth considering if the pan is regularly used for tomato-based or high-vinegar preparations
• Suitable for gas and solid-top ranges; not compatible with induction hobs without an interface disc
• Supplied without a lid — a matching or universal lid will be needed if covered cooking is part of your workflow

This pan is a practical choice for catering operations, pub kitchens, and contract catering environments that need reliable, lightweight cookware for general service. For higher-volume sites or those requiring induction compatibility, it is worth considering whether a heavier-duty or induction-ready alternative would be more appropriate.

If you are unsure whether this size works for your service volumes or menu requirements, the team is happy to help you think it through before you order.

The Pujadas Ø350 aluminium casserole is a straightforward, robust cooking vessel from the Century Aluminium range, designed for the demands of professional kitchen service.

If you are equipping a new kitchen or replacing lids across a set of pans, our team are happy to help confirm compatibility and suggest the right combination of cookware for your service style.

This is a 350mm diameter aluminium lid from Pujadas, designed to fit within the Century aluminium cookware range. It functions as a straightforward heat-retention lid for use on pots and pans during cooking, holding temperature and reducing moisture loss during simmering, braising, and resting.

In a working kitchen, a well-fitting lid makes a practical difference — retaining heat means less energy is needed to maintain temperature, and covered pots recover more quickly after ingredients are added. Aluminium conducts heat efficiently, and the lid is constructed to sit flush and consistent, reducing the steam and heat loss that a poor-fitting lid allows. The stainless steel handles are tubular and heat-insulating, which matters when lids are being lifted repeatedly across a service period. Each handle is attached with four rivets, which is a more reliable fixing than the two-rivet fittings found on cheaper alternatives.

• Aluminium construction for good thermal conductivity and lightweight handling
• Heat-insulating tubular stainless steel handles reduce burn risk during service
• Four-rivet handle attachment for durability under repeated daily use
• Designed to complement Pujadas Century aluminium pans for a consistent fit

This lid is best suited to kitchens already using or intending to use Pujadas Century aluminium cookware. It is a practical everyday item rather than a universal fit — confirming compatibility with your existing pans before ordering is worthwhile. If you have questions about matching lids to pans across the range, the team is happy to help.

The Pujadas Ø350 aluminium stock pot is a large-format batch cooking vessel from the Century Aluminium range, designed for professional kitchen use. It is supplied without a lid, making it suited to applications where continuous stirring or reduction is required, or where a universal lid from the same range is already in use.

It conducts heat quickly and evenly across the base and sides, which supports consistent cooking across large volumes and reduces the risk of localised hot spots causing scorching. The extra-thick base on this pot maintains full contact with the heat source, which matters particularly on high-output range burners where a warped or thin base would compromise efficiency over time.

In practical terms, this pot holds up well under the demands of daily professional use. The heavier gauge construction resists deformation from repeated heating and cooling cycles, and the four-rivet handle attachment on each side is a meaningful detail — handles are a common failure point on lesser pots, and the reinforced fixing improves both safety and longevity during service.

• Even heat distribution supports consistent results across large batch volumes
• Reinforced handles with tubular stainless steel design reduce burn risk during busy service
• Extra-thick base maintains shape and contact with the heat source over time
• Suitable for stocks, soups, braising liquids and bulk preparation tasks
• Part of a coordinated range, allowing compatible lids and other vessels to be added

This pot is well suited to mid-to-large professional kitchens producing stocks, soups, or batch-cooked bases regularly. For very high-volume operations running multiple pots simultaneously, it is worth considering whether a larger capacity vessel or a heavier-duty alternative from the wider range would better match your throughput requirements.

If you are building out your pot stock or want to discuss which sizes suit your menu and service volumes, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

This is a large-format aluminium stock pot from Pujadas, part of their Century Aluminium Cookware range, designed for high-volume batch cooking in professional kitchens. Without a lid, it is suited to open reduction work, stock making, blanching and similar tasks where constant access or ventilation is required. The Ø450 diameter puts this firmly in the territory of central production kitchens, large catering operations and contract catering environments.

It heats quickly and distributes temperature evenly across the base and sides, which matters when you are cooking large volumes of liquid and need consistent results without hot spots. The extra-thick base construction helps the pot maintain contact with the heat source and resist the deformation that can occur over years of daily service on high-output burners.

From an operational standpoint, the design addresses some of the practical frustrations that come with large-format pots:

• Tubular stainless steel handles insulate against heat transfer, reducing burn risk when moving a full pot
• Four-rivet handle attachment per side provides the structural integrity needed when lifting at full capacity
• Thick-gauge aluminium walls help maintain batch temperatures during extended cooking cycles
• Pure aluminium construction supports even heating without reliance on additional base layers
• Straightforward, uncoated interior makes inspection and thorough cleaning straightforward

A pot of this diameter requires a burner or range section large enough to support it properly — both in terms of grate size and heat output. It is worth confirming your range can accommodate the footprint before ordering. This pot is supplied without a lid, so if covered simmering or storage is part of your workflow, a compatible lid will need to be sourced separately.

This pot suits central production kitchens, large hotel operations, contract caterers and institutional catering where batch volumes justify the size. Smaller kitchens with lower throughput would likely find a smaller diameter more practical day to day. Equally, for very high-output sites running multiple large batches simultaneously, it is worth considering whether a heavier-duty or larger-capacity option would be a better fit.

If you are unsure whether this size is right for your operation or want to talk through what your range can handle, the team is happy to help you work it out before you commit.

• Tubular stainless steel handles are heat-insulating, reducing the risk of burns during handling
• Each handle is secured with four rivets, providing a reliable, stable attachment under heavy daily use
• The aluminium construction is lightweight relative to cast iron alternatives, easing handling when full
• Pure aluminium is fully recyclable, which may be relevant where kitchens are working towards sustainability targets

This pot is suited to gas and solid top ranges. It is worth confirming compatibility with induction hobs before purchasing, as standard aluminium cookware is not induction-compatible without a suitable base. For very high-volume sites running continuous production, a heavier-gauge or larger-capacity option may be worth considering.

Well suited to restaurants, hotel kitchens, contract catering operations, and staff canteens where reliable, everyday cookware is needed at volume. If you are kitting out a new kitchen or replacing existing stock and want to talk through what sizes and quantities make sense for your operation, the team is happy to help.

The Pujadas Ø200mm aluminium paella pan is a straightforward, well-made piece of professional cookware designed for preparing paella and similar shallow-cooked dishes in commercial settings. It is made from pure aluminium sheet, which conducts heat quickly and evenly — a practical advantage when you need consistent results across the base of the pan throughout service.

Aluminium's thermal conductivity makes this pan responsive to temperature changes, which suits the controlled, stage-by-stage cooking that paella demands. The extra-thick base helps maintain full contact with the heat source and resists the warping that thinner pans are prone to under repeated heavy use. That added rigidity also extends the working life of the pan noticeably.

From a practical handling standpoint, the tubular stainless steel handles are designed to stay cooler than the pan body during cooking, which reduces the risk of burns during a busy service. Each handle is secured with four rivets, giving a firm, stable attachment that holds up reliably over time.

• Even heat distribution across the base for consistent cooking results
• Extra-thick base resists warping and maintains full contact with the heat source
• Riveted stainless steel handles stay cooler for safer handling during service
• Pure aluminium construction is lightweight and easy to manoeuvre
• Straightforward to clean and maintain between services

The 200mm diameter makes this pan well suited to individual or small-portion paella dishes, and it is a practical choice for restaurants, tapas bars, hotel kitchens, and event catering operations where paella features regularly on the menu. Kitchens preparing paella in larger batch sizes may want to consider a wider pan from the same range.

If you are unsure which size or specification best fits your service style, the team is happy to help you work it out before you order.

This Pujadas stock pot is a straightforward piece of professional cookware made from pure aluminium sheet. It is part of the Pujadas Century range and is designed for the kind of sustained, repetitive use that commercial kitchens put cookware through daily — bulk stock production, soup preparation, blanching and large-batch sauce work.

Aluminium conducts heat efficiently and evenly, which matters in a busy kitchen where consistent results and fuel economy both count. The extra-thick base is constructed to resist the warping that thinner pots suffer over time on high-output ranges and solid-top hobs, ensuring the pot stays flat and maintains proper contact with the heat source throughout its working life. The stainless steel tubular handles are heat-insulating and fixed with four rivets per side, giving a secure grip under load and reducing the risk of a handle working loose in service.

Practical advantages for kitchen operations include:

• Even heat distribution reduces hot spots and the risk of product catching
• Thick-gauge construction resists deformation under daily commercial use
• Insulated handles allow safer handling when the pot is full and hot
• Pure aluminium construction is fully recyclable at end of life
• Straightforward design with no complex components to fail or replace

There are a few practical points worth noting. This pot is sold without a lid, so if covered simmering or storage is required, a suitable lid will need to be sourced separately. Aluminium is not suitable for induction hobs unless used with an induction interface plate. It is also worth considering that aluminium can react with strongly acidic ingredients over extended cooking periods, which is relevant for certain stocks or tomato-based preparations.

This pot is well suited to professional kitchens producing stocks, soups and sauces in volume — from hotel and restaurant operations through to school catering and contract catering environments. For sites preparing exceptionally large batches or running continuous production, larger-capacity options are available within the range.

If you are unsure whether this size suits your production volumes or hob type, the team is happy to talk it through before you order.

This is a large-format aluminium sauce pot from Pujadas, part of their Century Aluminium cookware range. At 350mm in diameter, it is intended for high-volume sauce, stock, and soup preparation in professional kitchen environments. It is supplied without a lid, making it practical for continuous stirring applications or situations where a universal lid is already in use.

Aluminium is a well-established material in commercial cookware because of its thermal conductivity. Heat travels quickly and evenly across the base and up the sides, which helps operators maintain consistent temperatures during busy service periods without the lag associated with heavier materials. The extra-thick base resists deformation over time, keeping the pot in full contact with the heat source and avoiding the uneven heating that a warped base can cause.

For kitchen teams working at pace, the construction details matter in day-to-day use:

• Tubular stainless steel handles remain cooler to the touch than the pot body during cooking
• Four-rivet handle attachment per side provides a secure, stable grip under load
• Thick aluminium walls offer good resistance to impact and daily wear
• Pure aluminium construction makes the pot straightforward to clean and maintain
• The open-top design suits continuous reduction and stock work without steam build-up

This pot is well suited to kitchens producing sauces, soups, or stocks in quantity — contract caterers, hotel banqueting operations, and busy pub or restaurant kitchens are typical environments. For operations working with smaller batch sizes, narrower options in the same range may be more practical. For very high-volume sites running multiple hob positions simultaneously, it is worth considering whether a heavier-duty or larger-capacity vessel would better fit the workflow.

If you are building out a cookware set or are unsure which sizes suit your service volumes, the team is happy to talk it through with you.

The Pujadas 240mm aluminium paella pan is a straightforward, well-made piece of cookware intended for professional use. Constructed from pure aluminium, it is designed to distribute heat evenly across the base — a practical requirement for paella and other dishes that depend on consistent, controlled cooking rather than concentrated heat.

In a busy kitchen, the value of reliable cookware comes down to consistency and durability. The extra-thick base on this pan resists warping under repeated heating and cooling cycles, which helps maintain full contact with the heat source and keeps cooking times predictable during service. The aluminium construction conducts heat efficiently, which is useful when working at pace and managing multiple pans simultaneously.

A few points worth noting for day-to-day use:

• Thick base construction resists deformation over extended use
• Even heat distribution supports consistent results across the cooking surface
• Tubular stainless steel handles are heat-insulating, reducing burn risk during handling
• Four-rivet handle attachment provides a secure, stable grip under load
• Pure aluminium material is lightweight relative to cast alternatives

This pan works across gas and solid-top ranges. It is not suitable for induction hobs without an appropriate heat diffuser. As with all aluminium cookware, it is best hand-washed to preserve the surface and extend working life.

The 240mm diameter suits smaller-portion paella service, individual or sharing portions at the lower end of the scale, or as part of a set where multiple pan sizes are used to cover different portion sizes. Operators running high-volume or large-batch paella service may find a larger diameter pan more practical.

If you are building out a paella menu or equipping a kitchen for the first time, it is worth a conversation with the team to make sure you have the right combination of pan sizes for your expected covers.

The Pujadas Ø400 aluminium sauce pot is a large-format, lidless cooking vessel from Pujadas's Century Aluminium range, designed for professional kitchens that handle significant volumes of stocks, sauces, soups, and braised preparations. At this diameter, it sits firmly in the category of batch-cooking cookware rather than à la carte pans, and is sized accordingly for stockpot ranges, high-output burners, and central production kitchens.

Aluminium's thermal conductivity is one of its principal strengths in a professional kitchen context. Heat travels quickly and relatively evenly across the base and up the walls, which supports consistent results when reducing large volumes of liquid or holding sauces at working temperature during service. The heavier gauge construction used in this range helps resist the warping and deformation that thinner aluminium cookware can suffer under prolonged high-heat use — a common failure point in busy kitchens.

From a practical standpoint, this pot offers several day-to-day advantages:

• Rapid, even heat distribution reduces hot spots and the risk of scorching
• Reinforced tubular stainless steel handles stay cooler than the pot body during use
• Four-rivet handle attachment per side provides a more secure fixing under heavy loads
• Aluminium's relatively light weight makes large volumes more manageable to lift and transfer
• Pure aluminium construction is fully recyclable and supports kitchen sustainability commitments

Being without a lid, this pot is well suited to reduction work, open stock production, and applications where evaporation is intentional. Operators who regularly need to cover during cooking or transport should consider whether a matching lid is required alongside. At Ø400, this is a genuinely large vessel — it suits central production kitchens, large catering operations, and event catering rather than smaller kitchens with limited range or storage space. For lower-volume operations, smaller diameters within the same range may be more practical.

If you're unsure whether this size is right for your service volumes or burner output, we're happy to talk it through.

This is a straightforward aluminium lid sized at 280mm diameter, designed to pair with compatible pans in the Pujadas Century aluminium cookware range. It fits over the pan to retain heat and moisture during cooking, helping reduce energy use and maintain consistent temperatures through a service.

In a working kitchen, a well-fitted lid makes a practical difference — shorter bring-to-boil times, better heat retention between the stove and the pass, and less steam escaping into the kitchen environment. The aluminium construction conducts heat efficiently, and the material holds up well under the repetitive daily use typical of a busy kitchen. The tubular stainless steel handles are designed to stay cooler than the lid body, reducing the risk of burns during handling.

• Aluminium construction for good thermal conductivity and lightweight handling
• Tubular stainless steel handles reduce heat transfer and aid safe handling
• Four-rivet handle attachment for durability under repeated daily use
• Designed to complement Pujadas Century aluminium cookware

This lid is suitable for a wide range of commercial kitchen settings — from pub kitchens and cafés through to contract catering operations. It is a simple, practical accessory rather than a specialist item, and works best when matched to the correct pan diameter. If you are building out a set of Pujadas cookware or need guidance on compatible pan sizes, the team is happy to help you put the right pieces together.

The Pujadas Ø240 sauce pan is a straight-sided aluminium pan from the Century range, designed for everyday sauce and liquid cookery in professional kitchen environments. It is made from pure aluminium sheet, which conducts heat quickly and evenly across the base and sides — a practical advantage when cooking sauces, stocks, or dairy-based preparations where consistent temperature control matters.

The pan is built with a notably thick base and walls, which resists the kind of warping and deformation that lighter pans suffer under the repeated thermal cycling of busy service periods. A pan that sits flat on the burner transfers heat efficiently; one that has warped creates hot spots and uneven results. The extra material thickness addresses this directly and extends the working life of the pan considerably.

From a handling perspective, the tubular stainless steel handles are designed to stay cooler than the pan body during use, reducing the risk of contact burns. Each handle is fixed with four rivets rather than two, which keeps the attachment secure over years of daily washing and heavy use — a detail that matters in kitchens where pans are used hard and cleaned frequently.

• Pure aluminium construction for fast, even heat distribution
• Thick base and walls resist warping under repeated heating and cooling
• Stainless steel tubular handles designed to minimise heat transfer
• Four-rivet handle attachment for long-term structural integrity
• 100% recyclable material

This pan is well suited to smaller and medium-volume operations — cafés, pub kitchens, small restaurants, and hotel kitchen sections — where a reliable, no-frills sauce pan is needed for daily use. Operations running very high volumes across multiple sections may want to consider a heavier-duty option from the range.

If you are equipping a kitchen and want to make sure you are choosing the right sizes and quantities for your service style, the team are happy to talk it through.

This is a straightforward aluminium pan lid from Pujadas, sized at 320mm diameter to fit the corresponding pans in the Century aluminium cookware range. It serves the basic but important function of retaining heat during cooking, reducing moisture loss, and helping pots come up to temperature more efficiently during a busy service.

Aluminium conducts heat well and responds quickly to temperature changes, which suits the pace of a working kitchen where pots are on and off the heat throughout service. The lid is built to a practical thickness that resists the minor knocks and drops that are a routine part of kitchen life, and the stainless steel handles are designed to stay cooler than the body of the lid, reducing the risk of contact burns when lifting under pressure.

• Aluminium construction for good thermal conductivity and light handling
• Tubular stainless steel handles designed to minimise heat transfer to the grip
• Handles fixed with four rivets each for secure, long-term attachment
• Compatible with the Pujadas Century aluminium cookware range
• Recyclable material in line with kitchen sustainability considerations

This lid is a practical everyday item suited to any commercial kitchen already using Pujadas 320mm cookware — catering operations, pub kitchens, care homes, and similar environments where dependable, unfussy kit is needed. It is a single-size item, so kitchens running multiple pot sizes will need the corresponding lid for each diameter.

If you are equipping a kitchen from scratch or building out a cookware set, the team is happy to help you identify the right sizes and quantities for your operation.

The Pujadas Ø450 aluminium sauce pot is a large-format cooking vessel from the Century Aluminium range, designed for bulk preparation of stocks, sauces, soups, and similar liquids in professional kitchen environments. It is supplied without a lid, making it straightforward to specify alongside a compatible cover if required.

Aluminium is a well-established material for this class of cookware precisely because of its thermal conductivity. It heats through quickly and distributes heat evenly across the base and sides, which helps maintain consistent temperatures during extended cooking and reduces the risk of localised scorching. The extra-thick base construction resists deformation over time, keeping the pot sitting flat on the heat source and maintaining efficient contact throughout its working life.

In practical terms, the design suits kitchens where large batches are prepared in advance and held or reduced over time. Key operational characteristics include:

• Even heat distribution supports consistent reduction and sauce work
• Thick base maintains contact with heat source, preserving energy efficiency
• Tubular stainless steel handles resist heat transfer, reducing burn risk during handling
• Four rivets per handle provide a secure, long-term attachment under daily commercial use
• Pure aluminium construction keeps the pot relatively lightweight at this size

At this diameter, the pot is best suited to central production kitchens, hotel kitchens, or any operation running high-volume batch cooking. It is a practical choice where a large cooking vessel is needed regularly. Kitchens with more modest output may find a smaller size in the range more appropriate, while very high-throughput sites may want to consider heavier-gauge alternatives.

If you are unsure whether this size fits your workflow, or you would like guidance on compatible lids or other pieces within the Century Aluminium range, the team is happy to help you work through the options.
