Keeps drinks hot or cold for hours - thanks to THERMALOCK double-wall vacuum-insulation

Double-wall vacuum-insulation creates an airless barrier that slows heat transfer between the beverage and outside air. The THERMALOCK system relies on that vacuum space to maintain temperature over extended periods.

Hot drinks can remain warm for up to six hours and cold drinks stay chilled up to 12 hours, useful for long commutes or a full working day.

Spill-free commuting - with SNAPSEAL Technology and a push-to-drink lever

SNAPSEAL closes the drinking channel when the lever is pushed down, creating a sealed position designed to prevent leaks while the mug is carried. One-handed operation engages the lever for quick access.

Confident carry in bags or pockets when closed, while quick one-handed sips are possible when the lever is opened.

Simple, low-risk lid design - with a one-piece lid that has no loose parts

A single-piece lid removes separate seals, caps or detachable components, reducing potential failure points and the chance of losing parts during travel.

Easier cleaning and fewer bits to misplace, making the mug better suited to daily use and travel.
