alfi vacuum flask

alfi is a premium German heritage brand founded in 1914 by Sophie and Carl Zitzmann in Fischbach, Germany. Originally starting as the 'Aluminiumwarenfabrik Fischbach', the brand quickly became a world-renowned specialist for high-end insulated carafes and drinkware.

Over the decades, alfi has collaborated with famous designers to create iconic household objects like the Juwel and the Gusto. While the brand maintains a strong manufacturing presence in Germany to uphold its standards of quality and engineering, its globalization has led to various manufacturing sites. Since 2014, the brand has been part of a larger global portfolio under the ownership of Thermos.

Today, alfi stands as a leader in the vacuum-insulated flask market, combining traditional German craftsmanship with modern thermal technology under the stewardship of the Thermos Group, which is itself owned by Japanese industrial interests.
