The stackable design enables space-saving storage
Glassware racks operate on a brilliantly simple principle—offering structured compartments that hold each glass securely in its own space. Most designs feature a grid-like configuration with specialist dividers or hollow compartments, keeping glasses separated to prevent chips and cracks. Many racks include specific cell sizes for different glass types—from tumblers to delicate wine glasses. Stackable designs allow vertical storage to maximise space, while integrated handles make transportation between bar, washing area, and storage a doddle. The real magic happens during service—just grab a fully-stocked rack and you've got dozens of clean glasses ready in seconds!

For maximum efficiency, establish a colour-coded system—blue for highballs, red for wine glasses, and so on. Train staff to place glasses rim-down to prevent dust accumulation and cross-contamination. When stacking, always use compatible racks and avoid overstacking which can cause instability. For stemware, invest in specialised extender racks to protect delicate stems. Finally, position racks near your glass washer and service area to create a logical workflow that saves steps during busy periods.
Our hospitality equipment specialists have kitted out thousands of UK venues over five decades. 'Proper glass management is often overlooked until it's too late,' says Mike, our bar equipment expert. 'The right racks pay for themselves in prevented breakages alone—especially in busy weekend venues.'
The Bull & Bear, a bustling gastropub in Bristol, was facing a glass crisis—they were breaking up to 15 glasses daily during busy weekend shifts. After switching to our commercial rack system alongside their glass washer, they transformed their operation. 'It's been a game-changer,' says the manager. 'We've cut breakages by over 70% and saved nearly £2,000 in replacement costs over six months. Plus, service is smoother with glassware organised by type—no more hunting for the right glass during the Saturday rush!'
