Olympia Kristallon Polycarbonate Jug 1.4Ltr

The Olympia Kristallon jug is a 1.4 litre polycarbonate serving jug designed for environments where glassware is impractical or poses a safety risk. Made from polycarbonate rather than glass or ceramic, it is highly resistant to impact and will not shatter if dropped, an important characteristic in busy institutional settings. It is available in four colours: yellow, green, blue and red. Choose the colour above.

In day-to-day service, polycarbonate jugs like this one take the repeated handling, stacking and general wear that glass cannot. The colours are useful where operators need to distinguish juice, water or other beverages at a glance, or separate jugs by beverage type or zone, or where colour-coded serving ware is part of allergen or dietary management protocols. The 1.4 litre capacity is a practical size for table service, allowing straightforward refills without the jug becoming unwieldy.

• Shatterproof polycarbonate construction reduces breakage costs and injury risk
• Lightweight at 240g, reducing fatigue during extended service periods
• Four colours: yellow, green, blue and red, for colour coding and service organisation
• Suitable for commercial dishwashers in most catering environments
• Consistent sizing makes storage and stacking straightforward

It is worth confirming your warewasher temperature settings are compatible with polycarbonate before committing to a large quantity. Polycarbonate can discolour, cloud or craze over time with repeated high-temperature dishwasher cycles, very harsh detergents or certain cleaning chemicals, so using the correct commercial detergent at the recommended temperature will extend its working life.

These jugs are most commonly used in schools, hospitals, care homes, outdoor activity centres, leisure facilities and staff canteens, and in any setting where safe, durable serving ware is a practical requirement rather than an aesthetic choice. They are less suited to fine dining, where glass alternatives may be more appropriate. For very high-volume operations needing larger serving capacities, larger-format jugs are available within the Kristallon range.
