This is a large-format aluminium stock pot from Pujadas, part of their Century Aluminium cookware range. It is sold without a lid and is intended for high-volume preparation work — stocks, soups, broths, sauces and similar long-cook, large-batch tasks that are a routine part of professional kitchen operations.
Aluminium is a well-established material choice for stock pots at this scale. It conducts heat quickly and evenly across the base and sides, which matters when you are bringing large volumes of liquid up to temperature during a busy prep shift. The extra-thick base on this pot is designed to resist deformation over time, maintaining full contact with the heat source and avoiding the uneven heating that a warped base causes. That kind of structural integrity becomes noticeable after extended daily use.
From a practical standpoint, the key features translate into meaningful day-to-day advantages:
- Even heat distribution reduces the risk of hot spots and scorching during long simmers
- Thick base resists warping under repeated high-heat use, extending working life
- Tubular stainless steel handles stay cooler during service, reducing burn risk
- Four-rivet handle attachment provides reliable security when moving a full, heavy pot
- Pure aluminium construction is lightweight relative to capacity, easing handling during prep
At this diameter, the pot is suited to range-top cooking on commercial hob suites or solid-top ranges. It is worth confirming your hob size and ring configuration before ordering, as a pot of this footprint requires an appropriate burner arrangement to heat effectively. It is not designed for induction unless your kitchen runs induction-compatible bases separately.
This pot will suit catering operations running large-batch preparation regularly — hotel kitchens, contract caterers, event catering teams and large restaurant operations among them. For smaller kitchens or lower-volume prep, a smaller capacity within the same range would be a more practical fit. Conversely, very high-throughput sites may want to consider heavier-gauge options designed for continuous, all-day cooking cycles.
If you are unsure whether this size is the right match for your prep volumes or hob setup, our team is happy to talk it through with you.
