CHICAGO, Ill. - The AUTOSEAL Stainless Steel Mug from Contigo - a leading producer of innovative travel mugs and bottles-stands alone in the travel beverageware industry with its patented technology that makes spills a thing of the past.
Contigo's AUTOSEAL technology is unmatched by other brands in the market in the way that it seals automatically between sips to prevent spills or drips and, by defaulting to a closed position, it maintains beverage temperatures longer. AUTOSEAL mugs use a unique closing mechanism that allows liquid to leave the mug only when the user has engaged the button. Simply press to sip and release to seal. This mechanism provides users the added convenience of one-handed drinking - a necessity for multitasking at work, in the car or on-the-go.
"Many consumers don't realize there is a difference between leak-proof and spill-proof; while many mugs claim they won't drip or release liquid when closed, only Contigo products with AUTOSEAL technology actually prevent spills," said Sami Elsaden, CEO of Contigo. "The AUTOSEAL technology coupled with the vacuum insulation offers consumers the ability to enjoy their beverage for hours due to the superior temperature retention, and with a peace-of-mind that spill-proof performance brings."
When a mug does not automatically default to a sealed state once it is used, it is not spill-poof. Other mugs on the market have binary buttons which need to be pressed to close, or require a spout cover to seal. These mugs can spill when tipped over. The Contigo AUTOSEAL Stainless Steel Mug is the only mug that truly delivers on its promise. Its automatic seal mechanism prevents accidental spills and makes it safe for use in environments where it otherwise would not be, such as around infants, active children, computers or other electronics and while commuting.
The mug's double-wall design features 18/8 stainless steel (18 percent chromium and 8 percent nickel) and a vacuum-insulated construction that eliminates condensation and keeps drinks hot for an estimated 4 hours and cold for up to 12 hours.
The Stainless Steel Mug meets the needs of the beverage enthusiast who wants a travel mug that keeps up with his or her active lifestyle. It is perfect for college students, business professionals, frequent commuters and working parents alike. The easy-to-hold design has a 16 fl. oz. capacity and fits in most car cup holders. It is available in stainless steel finish in silver or a variety of colors, and now, with trendy graphics.
The Contigo AUTOSEAL Stainless Steel Mug ($19.99) is available through a wide variety of national retailers and online at www.gocontigo.com.
