The Perfect Size for Sharing
With a 2.5-litre capacity, this thermo strikes the ideal balance—large enough to feed a family or small group, but not so big that it becomes unwieldy. It's the Goldilocks of food containers: just right.
Fill it with:
- Hot pap or rice for 6-8 people
- Chilled potato salad for a crowd
- Warm soup or stew for cold-weather events
- Ice-cold drinks and snacks for summer outings
How It Works
The secret is in the insulation. Thick polyurethane foam creates a thermal barrier between your food and the outside temperature, while the vacuum-sealed stainless steel construction prevents heat transfer.
For hot food: Preheat the thermo with boiling water, empty it, then add your hot food. Seal tightly and enjoy hot meals for 4-6 hours.
For cold food: Pre-chill the thermo in the fridge or with ice water, empty it, then add your cold food. Your salads, desserts, and drinks stay refreshingly cool.
The vacuum release knob makes opening easy, even after temperature changes create pressure differences inside.
Built for the Braai Nation
Vleis & Ys is a proudly South African brand that understands our outdoor culture. This thermo is designed for real South African conditions—hot summer days, chilly winter rugby matches, dusty camping trips, and everything in between.
It's the kind of gear that becomes part of your family traditions—the thermo that's always packed for the beach, the one that keeps the potjie warm at the rugby, the reliable companion on every camping adventure.
