LEAKPROOF. CERAMIC. INSULATED. 360 DRINKING
The only travel mug that combines vacuum insulated stainless steel with an interior ceramic coating, a 100% leakproof lid, and a design that fits any car cup holder.
360° Drinking Lid
Push to open, drink from any angle. No turning the cup, no pouring left or right, just a clean sip from wherever your mouth meets the lid.
vacuum insulated, double walled
Double walled vacuum insulation keeps drinks hot for up to 8 hours and cold for 12. The outer surface stays cool to touch and never sweats.
Ceramic Lined Interior
An innovative ceramic coating lines the inside of every bru travel mug. 100% odour free, stain resistant, and the reason your coffee tastes like coffee, not metal.
Concave Lid, Nose Friendly Design
The only travel mug designed with a concave cap so your nose doesn't get squished as you drink. Sounds small, feels huge after the first sip.
Fits Every Car Cup Holder
The size and shape has been specifically designed to fit all common car cup holders. Bru Travel can also fit handle-attached bike cup holders and fit into rucksack bottle pockets so you can enjoy great coffee on-the-go.
Easy Cleaning
The cup can be quickly washed by hand, with a brush or sponge and warm soapy water, dishwasher washing is not recommended as it ruins the external coating. The lid is top-rack dishwasher safe for daily washing but can also be washed by hand. For deep cleaning, the lid is easily taken apart into 3 parts and silicone rings removed.
100% Leakproof Travel Mug
Bru Travel is 100% leakproof meaning you can stop worrying about spills in your bag or on your outfit whilst commuting, cycling, holidaying or just about anywhere else life takes you. The lid has an indentation line which is visible only when your lid is in the ‘closed’ position so you know when it’s safely shut.
Side Handles for Easy Grip
Subtle side handles built into the cup body give a secure, comfortable hold even with one hand. Easier to carry, less likely to slip.
Shatterproof Stainless Steel Outer shell
Built from 18/10 stainless steel with a matt powder coated finish that resists scratches. Drop it, knock it, throw it in a bag, it keeps going.

Why ceramic beats stainless steel and plastic
Pure Taste, No Metal, No Plastic
Most travel mugs ruin your coffee before you've even taken a sip. Uncoated stainless steel adds a metallic aftertaste. Plastic absorbs odours and stains over time. Ceramic does neither.
The bru Ceramic Travel Mug is lined with a smooth sol-gel ceramic coating that keeps every drink tasting exactly as it should. No metal, no plastic, no compromise.
Got Questions About the bru Ceramic Travel Mug?
Is the bru Ceramic Travel Mug leakproof?
Yes, 100% leakproof when the lid is closed. The lid has a visible indentation line that only shows when fully sealed, so you know it's safe to throw in a bag.
Is the ceramic coating safe?
Yes, and we've gone further than most to prove it. We sent our actual bru Travel cups to SGS, one of the world's leading independent testing and certification bodies, for full third-party safety testing. They tested the complete cup including the ceramic coating, the stainless steel beneath, the lid and the silicone seals.
The ceramic coating passed full EU heavy metal migration testing (Council of Europe Resolution CM/Res(2013)9) at 100°C with an acidic simulant, with no detectable migration of any of the 21 metals tested, including lead, cadmium, nickel, chromium, mercury and arsenic.
The stainless steel beneath was tested at 19.8% chromium content, exceeding the FDA minimum of 16% for food-grade stainless. The lid and silicone components passed FDA 21 CFR food contact testing too.
So whether your coating is fully intact or has a small scratch, every surface that touches your drink has been independently tested and certified safe.
How long does it keep drinks hot?
Up to 8 hours hot, up to 12 hours cold. Performance depends on size, with the 16oz holding heat longest.
Will it fit in my car cup holder?
Yes. All three bru travel sizes (8oz, 12oz, 16oz) are designed to fit standard car cup holders, plus bike handle holders and rucksack side pockets.
Can I put it in the dishwasher?
The lid is top rack dishwasher safe. The cup itself should be hand washed with warm soapy water to protect the external powder coating.
What sizes does the bru Ceramic Travel Mug come in?
Three sizes: 8oz (230ml) for flat whites and espresso based drinks, 12oz (340ml) for everyday coffee and tea, and 16oz (455ml) for longer trips or larger drinks.
How is bru different from a KeepCup or Stojo and others?
Most travel mugs, including KeepCup, are not vacuum insulated ceramic mugs. bru Travel is a new product design funded on Kickstarter and is the only travel mug we know of that combines double-walled vacuum insulation, an interior ceramic coating, a 360-degree drinking experience, and a concave lid design that stops your nose pressing against the lid, so your drink stays hot or cold for hours and tastes like it does from a proper ceramic mug.
