It’s easy to overlook a lid, but the good ones make a real difference. The Olympia Kristallon range is a staple in the industry for a reason: it's no-nonsense and built to last. This lid fits snugly, the colour is genuinely useful for service, and it comes out of a hot wash cycle looking brand new. It's a small but mighty bit of kit.

- Surprisingly Durable: The material resists staining and cracking far better than cheaper alternatives.
- Compatibility is Key: It only provides a perfect fit for the specified jug models.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Grangetown Hub, a busy community centre in Cardiff, needed to replace its collection of mismatched, cracked jug lids. They wanted a uniform and hygienic solution for the various events they host, from kids' parties to local meetings.
"We host everything from kids' parties to community meetings, so hygiene and safety are key. These yellow lids are brilliant – they fit our jugs perfectly and let us instantly see which one has the orange squash! They're tough, too; they've been dropped countless times and still look new."
David Evans – Facilities Manager
The new lids helped reduce drink wastage from airborne contaminants and improved service speed during busy functions.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Before first use, wash thoroughly in warm, soapy water or run through a dishwasher cycle.
- Ensure your jug (models CE278 or J904) is clean and dry.
- Simply align the lid with the jug opening and press down gently for a secure fit.
- The spout cover should align with the jug's pouring spout for best results.
Keeping It Going
- This lid is fully commercial dishwasher safe for quick and easy cleaning.
- Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals which can scratch the surface.
- Stack them neatly when dry to save space and prevent damage.
- Periodically check for any signs of wear, although this tough lid should last years.

A: It's completely commercial dishwasher safe. You can also wash it by hand with warm, soapy water.
Q: What does the yellow colour signify?
A: While it can be used for anything, the bright colour is excellent for creating a colour-coding system, for example, for allergens or specific types of drinks.
