Stainless Steel Travel Mugs

Mugs have been in existence since the Neolithic Stone Age; pottery vessels similar to that of a mug were found in regions of China and Japan in the year 10,000 BCE which indicate that they were crafted out of bare hands in those time. Initially crafted without a handle and merely to hold medicinal liquids and water, adding the feature of a handle was barely a task. Beautifully decorated mugs were from in cities of Greece dating back to 4000-5000 BCE. The issue at the time was that the walls of the mugs were too thick and unhealthy for the mouth.

Gradually as time went by and the people became more developed, they managed to craft the walls o f the mugs in a thinner manner with thin walls fit for the mouth. Mugs carved out of wood were also a highlight of the early centuries. By the year 2000 BCE mugs were made from different sorts of metal including bronze, gold, silver and even lead but this made it extremely difficult and hard to use with hot liquids.

In today’s world mugs are used all the world especially in confined or personal spaces like home and small offices. It is safe to say that the usage of a mug can differ according to whichever setting it is used; for example mugs are not used to drink warm liquids like coffee or tea in a formal setting. On such instances, it is a cup, tea-cup, which is preferred. What many like to enjoy today about mugs is the fact that it can keep a liquid in its current temperature for a while longer than a cup can. Porcelain was introduced in China, in the year 600 CE and mugs made out of porcelain are ideal for both hot and cold liquids.

Then of course came the time when people wanted to gain more out of a mere mug; they wanted to be able to move around from one place to another, travel wherever they wished along with their hot or cold beverages in hand. Initially paper mugs were introduced but the lowdown with paper mugs was the fact that you could not keep the liquid in it for long. In the sense of durability, paper mugs were so not popular. Then came the invention of travel mugs made out of earthenware, porcelain, glass and stainless steel.
