Expert Review and Insights
The Arcoroc Nonic is the backbone of British pub glassware for a good reason. It’s not fancy, but it’s incredibly effective. The toughened build means it survives the chaos of a Saturday night, and the stackable, no-stick design is a genuine space-saver that bar staff appreciate. It’s a purchase you make for reliability, not for flair.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Swan Inn, a popular community pub in York, was struggling with high glassware turnover due to constant chipping and breakages from their standard, non-toughened glasses during busy periods and wash cycles.
"We were replacing glasses almost weekly, which was a hidden cost that really added up. The nonic design is classic, but it was the toughened glass and the CE mark that sold us on this pack. It’s made service much smoother and safer."
Michael Edwards – General Manager
After switching to the Arcoroc FU236 glasses, the pub reported a 45% reduction in glassware breakage within the first three months, significantly lowering their operational costs and staff time spent on cleanup.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon delivery, carefully unbox and inspect each glass for any damage that may have occurred in transit.
- Always run the glasses through a full wash cycle in your commercial glasswasher before their first use.
- Dedicate a clean, sturdy, and easily accessible shelf for storage, ideally close to your dispense points.
Keeping It Going
- Use a glass-specific rack in your washer to prevent items from knocking together.
- Stack glasses using the nonic bulge to protect the rims and prevent them from getting stuck.
- Avoid 'thermal shock' by not putting a hot glass straight from the washer into an ice-well or filling it with ice-cold liquid.
- Regularly check for small chips or cracks and remove any damaged glasses from service immediately to ensure customer safety.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does 'Nonic' actually mean?
A: It's shorthand for 'no-nick'. The name refers to the bulge which prevents the rims from chipping ('nicking') when they are stacked together.
Q: Are these glasses genuinely toughened?
A: Yes, these Arcoroc glasses are made from fully toughened glass, making them far more durable than standard glassware and safer if they do break.
Q: Is the CE mark a sticker or etched into the glass?
A: The CE mark is permanently etched or stamped onto the glass, so it won't wash off over time, ensuring you remain legally compliant.
Q: Can these be used in a commercial glasswasher?
A: Absolutely. They are designed specifically for the rigours of commercial glasswashing, ensuring quick and hygienic turnarounds.
Q: Does the 295ml capacity account for a head on the beer?
A: The 295ml / ½ pint mark is a 'line to capacity' measure. This ensures that when liquid is poured to the line, the customer receives a legal half-pint measure, with space above for the head.
Q: How high can I safely stack these?
A: While very stable, we recommend stacking them no more than 2 or 3 high on a secure, flat shelf to prevent accidents.
Q: Are they suitable for serving soft drinks as well?
A: Yes, they are excellent all-rounders. Their robust nature makes them perfect for serving pints of cola, lemonade, or cordials.
Q: Is the glass perfectly clear or does it have a tint?
A: The glasses are made from high-quality clear glass to accurately showcase the colour and clarity of the beverage being served.
The Arcoroc Promise: Reliability in Every Glass
When you choose Arcoroc, you're investing in more than just a box of glasses; you're investing in peace of mind.

Every glass in every box has the same weight, clarity, and strength, ensuring a uniform and professional look across your entire establishment. For a busy manager, this means fewer operational headaches, guaranteed legal compliance with the clear CE mark, and the confidence that your glassware can handle the pressure, allowing your team to focus on what matters most: excellent service.
Explore more from ArcorocMore Than Just a Bulge: The Genius of the Nonic Design
Ever wondered why the classic nonic pint and half-pint glass has that distinctive bulge near the top? It’s a clever piece of design with three massive benefits for any busy bar. Firstly, it provides a natural, comfortable grip, especially when the glass is wet with condensation. Secondly, it acts as a buffer; when the glasses are stacked, the bulge ensures the delicate rims never touch, dramatically reducing the 'nicking' and chipping that shortens a glass's life. Think of it like a tiny bumper for your glassware. Finally, it prevents a vacuum from forming when stacking, so glasses separate easily without sticking together – a small detail that saves huge frustration during a hectic service.
