BA-140 Large Capacity Air-Pot Thermos with Arabic Tea Label | Wholesale Supplier

The BA-140 large capacity air-pot thermos is purpose-built for the daily tea drinking culture that is central to family and social life across the Middle East. Tea (شاي, “shai”) is the most widely consumed beverage in the Arab world, served throughout the day from morning breakfast through late evening gatherings. This air-pot thermos addresses the practical need for a large-volume, easy-to-use hot beverage dispenser that keeps tea at serving temperature for extended periods, making it an indispensable appliance in every Middle Eastern household.

The air-pot (air-pressure) dispensing mechanism is the defining feature of this product. A simple pump action on the top button pressurizes the interior, forcing hot tea or water up through the internal tube and out through the spout. This design is inherently more hygienic than open-pour thermoses because the beverage never contacts external air during dispensing, and there is no need to lift or tilt the unit. The pump mechanism is designed for thousands of cycles and can be easily operated by family members of all ages.

The white PP (polypropylene) plastic shell provides a clean, neutral appearance that complements any kitchen or dining room decor while offering practical advantages: it is lightweight, impact-resistant, and stays cool to the touch even when filled with boiling liquids. The shell is printed with the Arabic word “شاي” (tea) in an elegant script along with decorative patterns that appeal to Middle Eastern aesthetic preferences. This cultural branding immediately communicates the product’s purpose to consumers and strengthens its market positioning in Arabic-speaking regions.

Inside, the high-borosilicate glass liner is the key to superior thermal performance and beverage purity. Unlike stainless steel liners, glass does not retain or transfer flavors between different beverages, making it ideal for tea service where flavor purity is paramount. The glass liner maintains hot tea above 60°C for over 8 hours, easily covering a full day of family tea service from morning preparation through the evening gathering. The double-wall construction with the plastic outer shell creates an effective insulation barrier.

Two capacity options serve different usage scenarios. The 3-liter model (Φ14×30cm, ~600g) is ideal for standard family use, providing approximately 12-15 standard cups of tea per filling. The 4-liter model (Φ16×35cm, ~900g) is designed for larger families, frequent entertainers, and small commercial operations like tea houses and cafes where higher volume is needed. The built-in carry handle on both sizes facilitates safe transport even when full.

The BA-140 fills a distinct market position alongside the 777 brand vacuum flask series (BA-136, BA-137). While the push-button vacuum flasks are designed for individual or small-group use with their 1.5-3.0L range and modern aesthetics, the air-pot thermos is the workhorse for high-volume family and small commercial tea service. Many wholesale buyers stock both product lines to offer a complete hot beverage solution to their retail and commercial customers.

Food safety certification covers all components that contact beverages. The glass liner is lead-free borosilicate certified under FDA and EU 1935/2004 standards. The PP plastic shell and internal components are food-grade certified and BPA-free. The stainless steel pump mechanism and internal tubing meet food contact regulations. Full REACH compliance ensures the product can be imported into all EU and Middle Eastern markets without restrictions.

The export packaging configuration of 8 units per carton (55×45×40cm, 14kg GW, 10kg NW) reflects the larger size and heavier weight of these units compared to the vacuum flask series. Each unit is individually boxed in a full-color retail box. The 100-piece MOQ with mixed-order support for the two capacity options gives wholesalers flexibility to balance their inventory between the 3L and 4L configurations based on their specific market demand patterns.
