DescriptionDescription: Previously, serving jugs on aeroplanes were made from porcelain and were heavy. SAS therefore ordered a new jug that would be easy for the crew to handle, avoiding work- related injuries. Designers Sven-Eric Juhlin and Maria Benktzon from Ergonomi Design Gruppen (now Veryday) were commissioned. The black jug is not just very attractive and easy to use, but is also drip-free. Its excellent design received a great deal of attention. More than 500,000 of these jugs have been produced and they are used by about 30 airline companies globally.
