The Pujadas Ø500 aluminium sauce pot is a large-format cooking vessel from the Century Aluminium range, designed for high-volume sauce, stock, and soup preparation in professional kitchens. It is sold without a lid, making it straightforward to pair with a compatible cover where needed or to use open during active reduction work.

Aluminium is a well-established material in commercial cookware for good reason. It heats quickly and distributes that heat evenly across the base and sides, which helps operators maintain consistent temperatures when working through large batches. The extra-thick base construction on this pot resists the warping that can occur over time with lighter-gauge alternatives, keeping the base in solid contact with the heat source and supporting more predictable cooking results across a busy service.

From an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages of this pot are:

  • Even heat distribution reduces the risk of hot spots and catching during long simmers
  • Thick base maintains full contact with the heat source, improving energy efficiency
  • Tubular stainless steel handles stay cooler to the touch, reducing the handling risk during service
  • Four-rivet handle attachment per side provides secure, stable grip under load
  • Pure aluminium construction is fully recyclable, which may be relevant to kitchens with sustainability procurement policies

This is a straightforward stovetop vessel with no special installation requirements. It is compatible with gas and electric hob surfaces; operators should confirm compatibility with induction hobs before purchasing, as standard aluminium is not induction-suitable without a bonded base. The Ø500 diameter is a large format and will require a suitably sized burner or hob ring to heat effectively. Storage and handling should account for the size of the vessel when full.

This pot is well suited to central production kitchens, large catering operations, and any kitchen regularly preparing stocks, sauces, or soups in volume. Smaller kitchens or those with lower daily output may find a smaller capacity from the same range more practical. If you are equipping a high-throughput kitchen and are unsure which size best fits your workflow, the team are happy to talk it through.

Frequently asked questions

Is this sauce pot suitable for use on induction hobs?

Standard aluminium cookware is not compatible with induction hobs, as aluminium is not a ferrous material. If your kitchen uses induction cooking, you would need a pot with a bonded induction-compatible base. This pot is suited to gas and conventional electric hob surfaces.

What type of kitchen is the Ø500 size most appropriate for?

The Ø500 is a large-format vessel best suited to central production kitchens, contract catering operations, or any site preparing sauces and stocks in volume on a daily basis. Smaller kitchens or those with more modest output would typically be better served by a smaller diameter from the same range.

Does the pot require a lid, and is one included?

This pot is supplied without a lid. For applications where a cover is needed — such as bringing liquids to the boil more efficiently or holding temperature — a compatible lid would need to be sourced separately. For open reduction work or active stirring during service, the lidless format is often preferred.
