Product Description
The Steelite Design+ Pilsner is a 414ml polycarbonate glass designed for beverage service in environments where conventional glassware isn't practical or safe. Made from polycarbonate, it is shatterproof and lightweight, making it a sensible choice wherever broken glass presents a safety or operational risk.
In practice, polycarbonate drinkware of this type is commonly used on rooftop terraces, poolside bars, outdoor event spaces, and in festival or stadium settings where glass is prohibited. The Design+ range is intended to maintain a presentable appearance in these settings — the clarity of the polycarbonate and the pilsner profile both help it read as a proper glass rather than a disposable substitute.
Key practical points for operators:
- Shatterproof polycarbonate — reduces breakage losses in high-risk service areas
- 414ml capacity suits standard draught lager and pilsner pours
- Reusable and washable — more sustainable than single-use alternatives
- Lightweight construction reduces fatigue during high-volume outdoor service
- Sold in a box of 12, which suits initial stock or top-up purchasing
Polycarbonate does scratch over time with repeated commercial dishwasher use, and scratched units tend to cloud and lose their clarity. Most operators find it worth reviewing stock periodically and replacing worn pieces to maintain presentation standards. It is worth checking that your dishwasher settings are compatible with polycarbonate before putting these into regular rotation.
This glass is well suited to outdoor hospitality venues, bars with poolside or rooftop service, events caterers, and any site operating under a no-glass policy. If you require a larger format or are equipping a higher-volume outdoor bar, it is worth speaking with us about pack sizes and alternatives within the range.
If you are unsure whether this format fits your service style or volume, we are happy to help you work through the options before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Polycarbonate is generally compatible with commercial dishwashers, but high temperatures and harsh detergents can accelerate clouding and scratching over time. It is advisable to check your machine settings and use a detergent formulated for polycarbonate to extend the usable life of each glass.
- That depends on your cover count, table turn rate, and how quickly washed stock can be returned to service. As a rough guide, many operators aim to hold two to three times their peak concurrent cover count in polycarbonate stock to allow for washing cycles. If you want to talk through your specific setup, we can help you arrive at a sensible opening order.
- Once a polycarbonate glass begins to cloud or develops visible surface scratching, it is generally worth retiring it — scratched surfaces can harbour bacteria and the presentation benefit is lost. In high-volume commercial use, operators often find a rolling replacement programme every season or two keeps standards consistent.
