Thermos is one of the most iconic names in temperature-controlled containers, having popularized the vacuum flask technology originally invented by Sir James Dewar. The brand was founded in Germany in 1904 by Reinhold Burger and Albert Aschenbrenner, who commercialized the invention. Over the decades, the Thermos brand underwent several international expansions and ownership changes, eventually leading to the formation of Thermos L.L.C.

Today, the brand is under the ultimate ownership of Taiyo Nippon Sanso Corporation, a major Japanese industrial gas company. While the brand has roots in Germany and the United States, its current global operations are centralized under Japanese corporate strategy. The product shown, a part of the Icon Series, is primarily manufactured in China, which serves as the primary production hub for most of the company's stainless steel hydration and food storage products for the global market.
