- Top Marks for Durability: The vitrified body really stands up to knocks and frequent dishwashing.
- Stacking Caution: The shape isn't designed for high, compact stacking like traditional mugs.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Copper Kettle, a bustling café in the heart of York, wanted to refresh its tableware to match a recent Scandi-inspired refurbishment. They needed mugs that were stylish but could also survive hundreds of cycles through their commercial dishwasher each week.
"We were tired of our old white cups chipping and looking worn. The Olympia matt grey mugs instantly lifted the look of our entire service. Customers constantly comment on how lovely they are, and they've proven to be incredibly tough. They still look brand new after months of heavy use."
Robert Davies – Owner, The Copper Kettle
The upgrade resulted in a noticeable increase in positive customer feedback regarding presentation and a 90% reduction in crockery breakages in the first three months.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Give all mugs a thorough wash in a commercial dishwasher before their first use to remove any dust from manufacturing or transit.
- Check each mug for any imperfections or transit damage before putting it into service.
- Designate a specific, easily accessible shelf for storage to minimise handling mishaps.
Keeping It Going
- Although tough, avoid dropping or knocking the mugs against hard surfaces.
- When stacking, do so carefully and not too high to prevent chipping the rims.
- Use a soft, non-abrasive scourer for any stubborn stains to protect the smooth glaze.
- Regularly check for any small chips or cracks and remove the mug from service to ensure customer safety.

Explore more from OlympiaWhy 'Fully Vitrified' is a Big Deal for Your Business
Ever wondered what 'fully vitrified porcelain' actually means? Think of it like giving your mug a superhero shield. During manufacturing, the porcelain is fired at an extremely high temperature, which causes the clay body to become glass-like (vitreous). This process seals up all the tiny pores found in standard ceramic, making the Olympia CS041 ceramic mug non-porous. For you, this means it won't absorb water, old coffee stains, or flavours, so every drink tastes fresh. It's also significantly stronger, more resistant to chipping, and better at handling sudden temperature changes—a true workhorse for any professional kitchen.
Who Should Buy This?
- Artisan Coffee Shops: Perfect for enhancing the visual appeal of your speciality coffees and creating an Instagram-worthy experience.
- Boutique Hotels & B&Bs: Ideal for upgrading in-room hot drink facilities or for a stylish breakfast service.
- Modern Bistros & Restaurants: Use this pastel grey catering mug to complement a contemporary dining aesthetic and table setting.
- Creative Office Spaces: A great choice for a staff kitchen or canteen to provide a durable, professional alternative to domestic mugs.
