Ornamin Ergonomic Cup, 20 cl

Ornamin ergonomic cup – drink easily, on your own and without pain, at home or away

The Ornamin ergonomic cup is a thoughtful way to make drinking easier for people who have trouble gripping, limited mobility in the neck or shoulders, or anyone who wants more comfort and independence at meals. Made in Germany, it brings function, design, and durability to daily life at home, in a nursing home, in the hospital, or on the go, and it fits naturally with ergonomic dinnerware suited to each person.

Real support for drinking without tipping your head back

Thanks to its unique contoured shape, the Ornamin ergonomic cup means you do not have to tip your head back to drink. A slanted inner wall, discreet and clever, lets liquid flow toward your mouth without lifting your chin. That greatly lowers the risk of aspiration, choking, or neck pain, which makes it a strong choice:

• For people with swallowing difficulties (dysphagia), Parkinson's, multiple sclerosis, or after a stroke...
• For seniors with limited mobility in the neck
• For children or adults with disabilities, or in rehab after surgery or an accident

This cup lets you drink with dignity and independence, which matters for confidence and for doing everyday things on your own.

Double-wall insulation: hot drinks stay hot, cold drinks stay cold

The Ornamin cup has a double wall, a real help for holding the temperature of your drink: coffee, tea, cocoa, broth, or juice stay at the temperature you want for a long time. The insulated design also helps you avoid burns or an unpleasant feel in the hand, even if you are sensitive to temperature changes.

• A good fit for people who take their time with meals or snacks
• Practical at home and outdoors
• Helps prevent condensation with cold drinks

A clever, easy-to-use design

The Ornamin ergonomic cup is appealing because it is light (only 140 g) and compact (11.5 x 7.1 cm), so it is easier to hold even with tremor, less muscle strength, or coordination difficulties. A lightly textured surface gives a secure grip and lowers the chance of a slip or a drop, even with damp or weak hands.

A 20 cl (200 ml) capacity is enough to drink without making the cup too heavy or unsteady. It fits seniors, children, and anyone who needs adaptive equipment to drink.

Everyday hygiene and practicality

Microwave and dishwasher use

Made entirely of food-grade polypropylene, and BPA-free, the cup can go in the microwave to warm a drink or in the dishwasher for a thorough clean, including at high temperatures.

• Simple, quick cleaning, at home or in a group setting
• Stands up to drops and bumps, thanks to high-quality construction
• A smooth inner wall that helps prevent leftover residue and stubborn stains

The Ornamin cup is tested for heavy, repeated use, so it lasts even when caregivers, nursing staff, or children handle it often.

Bright colors for easier spotting

Offered in several bright colors (red, blue, or green), the cup looks good and is easy to spot on the table or in the kitchen. The contrast also helps prevent mix-ups when vision or cognition is affected, and it can support appetite and acceptance for people with neurodegenerative conditions (Alzheimer's, confusion...).

Comfort, dignity, and independence: what the Ornamin cup does well

Drink without strain, and stay hydrated without worry

• Eases neck and joint pain by removing the need to tip your head
• Lowers the risk of aspiration and choking, including for people who are in bed or less mobile
• A grip that works for everyone, whether you drink with one hand or two
• Supports independence at care times and meals, so a caregiver has to step in less often

This ergonomic cup pairs well with other eating aids: ergonomic utensils, plates with rims, non-slip trays, and more.

A cup for every situation

The Ornamin cup works for all kinds of drinks: water, juice, coffee, soup, smoothies... Its height and diameter make a straw easy to use if you need one. Light and sturdy, it travels well (bag, suitcase, trip), to school, or to the office.
