What are the types of cups and jugs?

Mug glasses are known for their comfortable grip and wide mouth, perfect for everyday use. They are ideal for serving hot drinks such as coffee or tea and are usually made of ceramic or porcelain. Thermos cups, on the other hand, have the ability to keep your drinks heated or cooled for a long time. They are indispensable if you want to maintain the temperature of your drink while travelling or during long working days. Cardboard cups, on the other hand, are mostly disposable options and offer a practical use at picnics or collective events.

Thanks to their double-layered structure, double-walled cups can maintain the temperature of drinks for longer. This feature allows you to enjoy your hot coffee or tea during the winter months without getting cold. On the other hand, glass jugs are another preferred product in terms of aesthetics and health. Glass is used as a chemical-free material that does not change the flavours of liquids and is extremely easy to clean. IKEA jugs stand out with their designs suitable for both modern and traditional kitchen decorations. These jugs are suitable for serving various beverages, especially water and fruit juices.

Designed for home use, glass bottles in different sizes and capacities offer practical use at any time of the day. At large family dinners or special invitations, you can place several jugs on your table at the same time, creating a visual feast and making it easier for you to offer different beverage options to your guests.

Simple, stylish and functional for daily use, these products are ideal for storing and serving all kinds of beverages.

Each of the glass and jug types offers many different usage areas in itself. If you need to keep your brewed tea hot for a long time, you can choose models with double walls and lids. Likewise, plastic jug models may be safer for children in case of falling or breaking. These products, which provide ease of use, offer different solutions for all kinds of needs.

What materials are glasses and jugs made of?

Glasses and jugs made of different materials such as glass, porcelain and plastic differ according to their intended use. Glass products stand out with their elegance, while plastic products are more durable for daily use. With its transparent structure that reflects light, it highlights the colour and texture of the beverage, while porcelain glasses offer an elegant and classic look.

For users looking for environmentally friendly options, cups and jugs made of recyclable materials are also offered. These products are produced with sustainability and environmental awareness and are highly functional in daily use. Metal jugs, especially those made of stainless steel, are preferred for durability and longevity. This material is ideal for hot and cold drinks as it is resistant to temperature changes.

Glass, another popular material, is easy to clean and safe for health. Glass jugs and glasses do not contaminate your drinks with chemicals and preserve the taste and odour. Produced with a Swedish design approach, IKEA jugs and glasses are a perfect fit for minimalist and modern kitchens. The transparency of glass allows you to create a visual feast when serving your drinks, while porcelain jugs are an aesthetic complement to any table setting.

Which material is healthier for glasses and jugs?

In terms of food safety, glass and porcelain cups are among the best options for health. These materials offer a healthy use without changing the taste of your drinks. Glass and porcelain are known as materials that do not contain chemical substances and are safe to come into contact with food. In the case of acidic drinks, plastic cups can pass various chemicals into the drink over time, while glass and porcelain do not lead to such an interaction.

Glass glasses do not harbour odours and stains, making them ideal for flavour-intensive drinks such as wine and fruit juices. Porcelain preserves the true flavour of herbal teas and coffee, while allowing consumers to enjoy the pure taste. In addition, glass and porcelain are easy to clean and, despite frequent washing, scratches and stains are minimised.

Reusable glass jugs are also an ecologically advantageous choice. Unlike disposable plastics, glass jugs are long-lasting and reduce environmental waste, thus ensuring sustainable consumption. Glass and porcelain jugs offer a superior usage experience in terms of both health and flavour by allowing the beverage inside to be stored without chemical interaction.

On the other hand, the aesthetic quality and thermal properties of porcelain cups and jugs make them excellent choices. Porcelain's ability to retain heat well allows you to keep your drinks at the ideal temperature for longer. Glass jugs, on the other hand, are visually appealing thanks to their transparency, which is why they are preferred for special occasions and when entertaining guests.

Table decoration with glasses and jugs

A perfect dining experience is completed with an aesthetic presentation. The collection of aesthetic and functional glasses and jugs adapts to any table setting, making your meals more inviting.

These products stand out with their practicality and durability. Glass jugs in various sizes and shapes are ideal for both everyday use and special occasions.

These products keep your drinks at the ideal temperature for a longer period of time, providing convenience and showing your sensitivity to the environment. Since environmentally friendly products are an important choice for the modern consumer, IKEA offers a wide range of options to its customers.

What should be considered when choosing glasses and jugs?

It is important to pay attention to ease of use and maintenance features. Filtered jugs purify water, making it more practical to use, while double-walled glasses keep hot drinks hot for longer. The designs of the products to be purchased are also important; if you plan to make a stylish presentation for your guests, you should choose visually attractive glasses and jug models.

When choosing glasses and jugs, you should also consider the durability and durability of the products. Especially in homes with children, products made of unbreakable materials are ideal. Although glass products provide a stylish and elegant appearance, plastic or metal products may be more practical in daily use.

However, you should also consider how often the products you will buy will be used. If you often organise large gatherings or family dinners, it may make more economic sense to buy large sets of pitchers and multiple sets of glasses. In this case, products that provide ease of placement and storage stand out.

If you want to choose environmentally friendly products, you can choose cardboard cups made from recyclable materials or products made from biodegradable plastics. In addition, products made from materials such as wood and bamboo from sustainable sources are also among the environmentally friendly options.

Are glasses and jugs machine washable?

Many glass and jug models are dishwasher safe, contributing to ease of use. Glass and porcelain products are suitable for dishwasher use thanks to their high resistance to the aggressive effects of water and detergent. Glass and porcelain do not react chemically even at high temperatures and prevent harmful substances from mixing into your drinks, so you can use your products as clean and healthy as the first day after each wash.

Another point to be considered during the cleaning process is how the products are placed in the machine. Glasses and jugs should be placed correctly in the machine against the risk of breakage and scratches, and should be placed in separate sections from heavy food containers. The ideal washing temperature for porcelain and glass products usually varies between 50-65 degrees. These temperatures minimise the risk of damaging the material while cleaning your products sufficiently.

Some glass and porcelain models may have special coatings and may not be suitable for machine washing. For example, glasses and jugs with metallic paint or special design details may require hand washing. Such details are clearly indicated in the product care instructions. Checking the washing and care recommendations on the product label before use is important for long-term use.

Products with special functions, such as thermos cups, should generally not be washed in the dishwasher. They may contain high temperatures and intense chemical substances that may impair the insulating properties of thermoses. The cleaning methods recommended by the manufacturer for such products should be followed to maintain the performance of the product.

How many glasses of water does a jug hold?

A glass jug has a wide range of uses and can hold approximately 1 to 2 litres of water. This volume is ideal for meeting your daily water consumption needs and is usually equivalent to 4 to 8 glasses of water. IKEA offers a variety of jug sizes to suit every need. A small jug is ideal for a single person, while larger jugs are more suitable for families or groups.

The jugs are easy to fill thanks to their wide mouths and are also very practical to clean. Transparent glass designs make it easy to see the contents, making it easy to understand how much is left in your drinks. These highly functional products also add elegance to your table in terms of aesthetics. 

For large gatherings or family meals, it can be practical to use more than one jug. IKEA offers jugs in different sizes and styles to cater for every purpose. Large jugs can serve more people, while small jugs are ideal for smaller gatherings or personal use. In both cases, the water is kept fresh. Whether you are looking for glasses or jugs for a variety of dining occasions or for everyday use, you will always find them at IKEA.
