The Pujadas Ø280 aluminium sauce pot is a straightforward, well-made piece of cookware from the Century Aluminium range. Built from pure aluminium sheet, it is designed to handle the demands of regular brigade use — heating quickly, distributing heat evenly across the base and sides, and standing up to the kind of daily repetition that wears through lesser pans over time.

In a working kitchen, even heat distribution matters more than it might seem. Uneven bases create hot spots that scorch sauces, affect reduction consistency, and slow down service. The extra-thick base on this pot maintains full contact with the heat source — useful on both gas and solid-top ranges — and helps keep cooking predictable during busy service periods. Recovery after adding cold stock or liquid is reasonably quick, which supports steady throughput on the stove.

A few practical points worth noting for kitchen operators:

  • Pure aluminium construction provides responsive heat transfer with good energy efficiency
  • Reinforced extra-thick base resists warping under repeated thermal cycling
  • Tubular stainless steel handles are heat-insulating, reducing burn risk during service
  • Four rivets per handle provide a secure, stable attachment over long-term use
  • Supplied without lid — pairs with compatible lids available separately if required

This is a mid-to-large sauce pot suited to kitchens preparing soups, stocks, sauces, or braised dishes in reasonable volume. It is a practical everyday workhorse rather than a specialised piece. For very high-volume operations running multiple pots simultaneously over long shifts, it is worth considering whether heavier-gauge or larger-capacity options in the range better match the workload.

If you are equipping a new kitchen or replacing existing cookware across a brigade, we are happy to talk through what makes sense for your service style and volume.

Frequently asked questions

Is this sauce pot suitable for use on all types of commercial range?

The pot works well on gas burners and solid-top ranges where the thick base maintains good contact with the heat source. It is not suitable for induction hobs, as aluminium is not a magnetic material and will not be recognised by induction surfaces.

Does it come with a lid, and are compatible lids available?

This model is supplied without a lid. If a lid is required for your application — for example, when reducing stocks or holding temperature between service periods — compatible lids for the Pujadas range are available separately. It is worth confirming the correct diameter match before ordering.

How does aluminium cookware hold up under heavy daily use in a commercial kitchen?

Pure aluminium is a proven material in professional kitchens, valued for its heat responsiveness and relatively light weight compared to stainless steel. The thicker gauge used in this range improves resistance to warping and impact damage over time. That said, aluminium can discolour with certain acidic ingredients and requires more care than stainless steel when cleaning with abrasive products — a factor worth considering if the pot will be used primarily for acidic sauces or tomato-based preparations.
