About Tervis Tumblers

• Q: I know Tervis Tumblers are tough, but what are they made of?
  A: Tervis Tumblers are made of a space-age polycarbonate, the same amazing materials used in bulletproof shields, airplane windows and even the Space Shuttle! The high-quality polycarbonate that goes into Tervis Tumblers is more than TEN TIMES more impact-resistant than other plastics.
• Q: Why have Tervis Tumblers been so popular for so long?
  A: Tervis invented the insulated tumbler category back in 1946, and has led the way ever since with new products, innovations and styles. But the secret of Tervis Tumblers remains the same – their double-wall insulation keeps hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold by harnessing the amazing insulation properties of air! Because they are so well insulated, Tervis Tumblers don’t sweat like ordinary mugs or glasses – which means they won’t leave condensation rings on your furniture. You may never use coasters again!
• Q: I enjoy a cool drink by the pool. Are Tervis Tumblers safe for outdoor use?
  A: Tervis Tumblers aren’t just safe for outdoor use, they’re perfect for it! Their durable construction makes them virtually shatterproof, and if your Tervis Tumbler accidentally goes in the pool, you won’t have to go diving for it – because Tervis Tumblers float as well! Enjoy them by the pool, on the boat or on the golf course with confidence. With optional travel lids, Tervis Tumblers can go practically anyplace you do!
• Q: What makes Tervis Tumblers different from cut-rate look-alikes?
  A: Simple! Tervis Tumblers are better. That’s because of their quality construction and their amazing lifetime guarantee. You see, unlike less expensive imitators, Tervis Tumblers won’t break, scratch, warp or discolor with use. Plus, you can customize Tervis Tumblers with your favorite motif. We have hundreds to choose from, or you can even use your own. Try doing that with an imitation!
• Q: With so many imitations out there, how can I tell if I have a genuine Tervis Tumbler?
  A: Like all quality products, just look for the name. All Tervis Tumblers are proudly labeled with the Tervis name on the bottom of each tumbler. If it doesn’t say Tervis, then it’s not a genuine Tervis Tumbler – and it’s not the best!
• Q: It seems Tervis Tumblers have been around forever. When were they invented, and what does the name mean?
  A: Tervis Tumbler invented the insulated tumbler category way back in 1946, an era of innovation and scientific advances that guides Tervis Tumblers’ philosophy to this very day. The two engineers who invented Tervis Tumblers, named Cotter and Davis, combined the last halves of their last names and proudly named their amazing invention Tervis. Dedicated to innovation and customer satisfaction, the principles that guided the creation of Tervis Tumblers still dictate the way we do business.
• Q: I love my Tervis Tumbler, but what about when I take my drink on the go?
  A: Tervis Tumbler has you covered – literally! Accessories for Tervis Tumblers include travel lids for all sizes (please check for availability of lids for our 12-oz. and 17-oz. tumblers). We even offer Tervis Toppers – a combination travel lid and straw that makes it easy to handle that hot morning coffee behind the wheel, available for our 12-oz., 16-oz. and 17-oz. tumblers. 
• Q: Can I wash my Tervis Tumblers in the dishwasher? Can I use them in the microwave? How about the freezer?
  A: Tervis Tumblers are tough enough to handle the dishwasher without warping or discoloring. We recommend using the upper rack for best results. The tough polycarbonate in Tervis Tumblers can handle any wash cycle you throw at it! Plus, all Tervis Tumblers are freezer-safe, and all tumblers without metallic emblems or logos are microwaveable as well. What would an insulated tumbler be if you couldn’t chill it in the freezer or heat it up in the microwave? An imitation, that’s what!
