Our Story
It started with spilled coffee, a defeated sigh, and a mum who thought: there has to be a better way.
Not a product launch. A moment of 'enough is enough.' That's KALU.
Safe isn’t a feeling. It’s a test.
You use it every single day.
What touches your coffee doesn’t stay the same forever.
Heat and acidity interact with materials in ways that aren’t always visible.
So we asked a simple question:
What actually migrates, and under what conditions?
The day asks a lot. This part is yours.
When does my order ship?
Orders ship within 2–3 business days for standard shipping.
You'll get tracking the moment it's on its way. No surprises. No guessing. Just your coffee, coming.
How much is shipping?
Flat rate $9.90 NZD anywhere in New Zealand. No surprises at checkout.
Express option available.
Can I cancel my order?
Yes, absolutely.
You can cancel anytime before your order ships. Just email hello@kalu.co.nz and we'll process your refund promptly. We'd rather you feel completely confident ordering than feel locked in.
What's included with my KALU?
Your KALU Cup, a one-click leak-proof lid, and a silicone seal, everything built to work from day one.
Ceramic interior so your coffee tastes like coffee. Copper-insulated walls for temperature retention. Independently tested to LFGB standard. Dishwasher safe, body and lid.
Is it really 100% leak-proof?
Flip it. Throw it in your bag. Hand it to a toddler. We dare you to spill one drop.
The one-click lid seals completely when closed. It opens when you want it open. When it's closed, it's closed — built for the commute, the chaos, and the little hands nearby.
Why ceramic interior? What's the difference?
Your coffee tastes like your coffee. Not the cup.
Ceramic doesn't leach, doesn't absorb odours, and doesn't add anything to your drink. It also doesn't hold onto stains or smells, so it stays clean the way it looks. One sip and you'll taste the difference.
Are the materials safe?
Completely.
KALU is made with 18/8 grade 304 stainless steel — the same used in surgical instruments and professional kitchens. BPA-free. Heavy-metals-free. We test to LFGB standards — the EU's strictest food-contact regulation, stricter than FDA. Every batch tested. Every cup accountable. Full documentation at kalu.co.nz/pages/standards-testing.
