Prep like a boss
Takeaway lunches are invariably overpriced, unhealthy and unsatisfying – pretty much the opposite of what you need to power you through to the end of the working day. The answer, as advocated by hundreds of Instagram influencers and celebrity chefs alike, is the “Meal Prep” trend. But there’s no point taking the time and trouble to blend a tasty soup or knock up a hearty stew at home if, by the time to get to your lunchbreak, it’s turned cold and insipid, and half of it has leaked into the bottom of your work bag. The SIGG Gemstone Food Jar is the answer. Made from double wall, vacuum insulated stainless steel, it will keep meals piping hot for hours on end. It’s completely leakproof, includes a handy spoon/fork, and as you can eat directly from the food jar, gives you more time to make the most of your lunch. You’ll never have to munch through a Tesco meal deal ever again

Today, aluminium is ubiquitous, the stuff of Coke cans and kitchen foil. But at the dawn of the twentieth century, it was regarded as a wonder metal: the material of the future. Lightweight and durable, it would be used in cutting-edge tech from aeroplanes and automobiles to spacecraft. In Switzerland in 1908, Ferdinand Sigg was a classic ‘early adopter’ of this incredible metal, deciding to build his fledgling manufacturing business around aluminium.
It proved a shrewd move. By 1958, the SIGG company was producing more than 10,000 household products, all made from aluminium. But it was the humble SIGG water bottle that would become a Swiss design icon. The Traveller bottle, with its distinctive silhouette and rugged yet lightweight build, proved a perfect companion for outdoor adventures and everyday life.
It became the foundation of SIGG’s entire product range, which today encompasses everything from gym-ready sports bottles to leakproof lunchboxes and high-performance thermo flasks. And as we’ve all become more eco-conscious, so too has the Swiss brand, ensuring its products are free from harmful chemicals like BPA and phthalates, whilst also using recycled aluminium and plastics as well as bio-based renewable materials. Which will only make your beverage of choice – chilled water, hot coffee or anything else – taste even better. Now that’s refreshing, in every sense.
