Hendi Thermos flasks

Thermos flasks help hospitality teams prepare drinks ahead of service and keep them ready for pouring at a counter, table or drinks station. SIA La RONDE’s range includes a stainless-steel vacuum flask and a flask with a glass insert and black polypropylene body. Their different construction and handling characteristics suit different routines, from holding a prepared batch between pours to moving a flask where drinks are served. Choose according to the drink service, the space available and the cleaning routine your team can follow.

Equipment and tasks

A flask can support breakfast and buffet service, hot-drink rounds, or the preparation of a drink batch for a period of service. Rather than returning repeatedly to a preparation point, staff can keep a drink close to where it is poured. The one-litre vacuum flask is suited to holding a prepared quantity for a small service run, with its spout directing the drink into cups. Its handle supports lifting and carrying between a preparation area and the serving point.

The other one-litre flask has a glass insert and is intended for use in catering settings as well as at home and outdoors. Its polypropylene vessel provides a lightweight outer body for routine handling. The glass insert is associated with strong insulating performance, making this option relevant when a prepared drink needs to remain available between pours. These are practical choices for beverage service rather than substitutes for equipment used to prepare or heat drinks.

Parameters in use

Vacuum insulation reduces heat transfer between a flask’s contents and its surroundings. In kitchen work, that helps the stainless-steel flask retain a drink’s serving temperature while it waits at a drinks station. Its double stainless-steel body gives the flask a robust outer construction for repeated handling. The chromed-steel lid, button, spout and handle provide the parts used to open, pour and carry it, so staff can direct a pour without lifting the vessel by its body.

Capacity affects how much can be prepared for a service run: each of these flasks holds one litre. The second flask’s dimensions are 140 mm in diameter and 268 mm in height, which helps teams check whether it will fit a chosen counter position or storage space. Its weight is 0.61 kg, making it easier to lift and reposition during service. Since this model is not suitable for dishwasher cleaning, staff should plan to wash it by hand as part of the close-down routine.

Choosing a product

Start with the drink and the way it will be served. For a station where staff will carry and pour from the same vessel, consider the vacuum flask’s stainless-steel construction and its handle and spout. Vacuum insulation is useful when a prepared drink needs to wait between pours. For a flask with a glass insert and polypropylene body, consider the serving location and how the team will clean it; hand washing needs to fit the operation’s routine.

Check the serving quantity and the intended position before choosing. A one-litre capacity is appropriate when that batch size suits the service, while the measured diameter and height of the glass-insert model help assess counter or storage fit. Also consider who will move the flask and how often: weight and a usable handle affect day-to-day handling. Matching these details to the drink service, staff workflow and cleaning practice makes it easier to select a flask that is practical for the task.
