Emily Hart – Tableware Expert View Profile →
- Real Durability: The vitrified body genuinely resists chipping, even with clumsy stacking and daily washing.
- Bulk Purchase: Only sold in boxes of six, which could be an issue for very small setups.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
An independent garden centre café in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, was looking to refresh its tableware. Their old, mismatched white mugs were constantly chipping and looked tired, failing to reflect the vibrant atmosphere of the centre.
"We wanted crockery that felt more joyful and matched our brand. The Olympia yellow mugs were an instant hit. They're incredibly sturdy, but more importantly, our customers constantly comment on how lovely they are. They really brighten up the place."
Robert Green – Café Manager
The introduction of the new mugs led to a noticeable increase in customers sharing photos of their coffee and cake on social media, providing valuable free marketing.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon delivery, carefully unpack and check each mug for any damage that may have occurred in transit.
- Run the mugs through a full cycle in your commercial dishwasher before their first use to ensure they are perfectly clean.
- Stack carefully on shelves, ideally with shelf liners, to prevent pressure chips on the rims. Avoid over-stacking.
Keeping It Going
- Rinse immediately after use where possible to prevent tea and coffee tannins from staining.
- The dishwasher safe ceramic mug design is built to handle high-temperature cycles and commercial detergents daily.
- For any stubborn marks, use a non-abrasive cream cleaner rather than harsh scourers.
- Regularly inspect for any small chips or cracks; remove any damaged items from service immediately for safety.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these mugs genuinely safe for a commercial dishwasher?
A: Yes, absolutely. They are designed specifically for high-temperature cycles in commercial dishwashers and the glaze is formulated to resist dulling.
Q: What exactly is 'vitrified porcelain'?
A: It’s porcelain that has been fired at a very high temperature, making it non-porous. This process makes it incredibly durable, hygienic, and resistant to chipping and staining.
Q: Will the pastel yellow colour fade or wash out over time?
A: No, these mugs use a high-quality, non-fade pigment that is fired into the glaze, ensuring the colour remains vibrant even after hundreds of wash cycles.
Q: Can I heat up a drink in one of these in the microwave?
A: Yes, they are fully microwave safe, as well as oven safe, which is handy for serving things like hot desserts or mug cakes.
Q: Are these sold individually or in a pack?
A: To provide the best value for businesses, these are supplied in a commercial box of 6 mugs.
Q: What is the exact capacity of the mug?
A: The total liquid capacity is 340ml, which is equivalent to approximately 12 fluid ounces.
Q: Is the outside finish glossy or matte?
A: The mug features a stylish and contemporary matt pastel finish, which gives it a modern, premium feel.
Q: What does the BS4034 certification signify?
A: It is a British Standard that confirms the crockery has met specific durability tests, making it officially suitable for heavy use in hotels, restaurants, and other catering settings.

Explore more from OlympiaWhat 'Fully Vitrified' Actually Means for Your Mugs
Ever noticed how some old mugs get stained or develop fine, spidery cracks? That's often because they're porous. 'Fully Vitrified' is the technical term for fixing that. During manufacturing, the porcelain is fired at such a high temperature that it essentially turns into a glass-like, non-porous material. Think of it like this: a standard ceramic mug is like a very dense sponge, which can slowly absorb water, flavours, and bacteria. A vitrified mug is like a solid piece of glass – nothing gets in. This is why they are so much stronger, more hygienic, and resistant to chipping and staining, making them the gold standard for any professional kitchen.
Who Should Buy This?
