- Heads-up: Like all polycarbonate, they can show fine scratches over time with heavy use.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Old Anchor Inn, a popular pub with a sprawling beer garden in Bristol, was struggling with constant glass breakages and safety worries during the busy summer months.
"We were losing money hand over fist with smashed glasses, especially on sunny weekends. Switching to the glassFORever range was brilliant. Our staff feel safer, and our customers love them – they honestly can't tell the difference."
Mark Thompson – General Manager
By making the switch, the pub's glassware replacement costs plummeted by over 90% in the first six months.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Wash thoroughly in a commercial glasswasher before first use to remove any manufacturing residue.
- If chilling, place in a fridge or freezer for at least 30 minutes before service for the best results.
- Stack carefully, avoiding jamming them together tightly to prevent scuffs over time.
Keeping It Going
- To maintain their fantastic clarity, always use a non-abrasive, polycarbonate-safe glass wash detergent.
- Avoid using harsh scouring pads or abrasive cloths which can cause fine scratches on the surface.
- Allow to air dry or use a soft, microfibre cloth to prevent water spots and keep them sparkling.
- Regularly check for any deep scratches or cloudiness and rotate older stock out of service.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these glasses CE marked for serving draught beer?
A: This specific cooler glass has a capacity of 470ml (16.5oz) and is not CE stamped for draught beer service. For that, you would need a specific CE-marked pint or half-pint glass.
Q: Do they feel flimsy like cheap plastic glasses?
A: Not at all. The glassFORever range is made from high-quality polycarbonate with a solid base, giving them a reassuring weight and sturdy feel that's very similar to real glass.
Q: Will they stain from serving things like fruit juice or cola?
A: When washed promptly and correctly, they are highly resistant to staining from common beverages.
Q: Can I use these for hot drinks like coffee or tea?
A: These are designed specifically for cold beverages. Using them for very hot drinks is not recommended as it could damage the material over time.
Q: How should I stack them for storage?
A: They can be stacked, but it's best to do so gently to avoid scuffing the inner and outer surfaces. Avoid wedging them together tightly.
Q: Are these glasses recyclable?
A: Polycarbonate is a recyclable material. You should check with your local commercial waste collection service for their specific guidelines on Type 7 plastics.
Q: What's the main benefit of polycarbonate over traditional glass?
A: The biggest advantages are safety and durability. Polycarbonate is virtually unbreakable, making it the ideal choice for any busy or outdoor environment where shattered glass is a hazard.
Q: Do they go cloudy in the dishwasher?
A: If you use a suitable polycarbonate-safe detergent and rinse aid, they will remain crystal clear for over 2,000 wash cycles. Cloudiness is almost always caused by using the wrong, harsh chemicals.

Explore more from GlassForEverWhy Polycarbonate is a Smarter Choice for a Busy Venue
Ever wondered what makes these glasses 'virtually unbreakable'? It's all down to the material: polycarbonate. Think of it like the difference between a standard windowpane and the shatterproof material used in aeroplane windows or police riot shields.

These commercial polycarbonate cooler glasses bring that same level of safety and resilience to your bar or restaurant. They provide all the visual appeal of glass without the fragility and risk, making them the perfect, worry-free choice for any environment where safety and durability are top priorities.
