Product Description
These are standard nonic-profile pint glasses made from polycarbonate rather than glass. They hold 570ml and carry CE certification, meaning the fill line is accurate and legally compliant for licensed premises serving by the pint. The pack contains 48 glasses, which suits a typical opening order for a bar or event setup.
Polycarbonate glassware performs well in environments where breakage is a persistent problem — outdoor bars, festival sites, sports venues, poolside service, and busy nighttime venues. The material absorbs impact rather than shattering, which reduces waste, lowers the risk of injury, and keeps service moving without staff stopping to clear broken glass. In high-turnover settings, that practical advantage adds up quickly over a season.
- CE marked for accurate, legally compliant pint measures
- Nonic profile stacks securely and is familiar to customers
- Polycarbonate construction withstands repeated drops without shattering
- Suitable for glasswasher use in commercial operations
- Pack of 48 provides a practical opening quantity for most venues
These glasses are not suitable for all settings. Polycarbonate will scratch over time with heavy commercial use, and scratched glassware should be replaced — both for appearance and hygiene reasons. They are also not well suited to venues where premium presentation is a priority, as the material does not replicate the clarity or weight of real glass to a discerning customer.
This pack size works well for smaller venues, event hire companies, or as a supplementary stock for outdoor service areas alongside a main glass inventory. Operators running larger or more permanent operations may want to consider ordering in greater volume to keep pace with attrition.
If you are weighing up polycarbonate versus toughened glass for your operation, or working out the right opening quantity for your venue, the team is happy to talk it through.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes. The CE marking confirms that the 570ml fill line meets the legal requirements for serving a pint measure in a licensed UK venue. They are a practical choice wherever accurate, legally compliant measures are required alongside the benefit of shatter resistance.
- Polycarbonate is compatible with commercial glasswasher temperatures, but the material will develop surface scratches over time with heavy use. Scratched glassware should be retired and replaced, as scratches affect both appearance and hygiene. For most venues, factoring in a regular replacement cycle is sensible planning.
- For a smaller venue or as supplementary outdoor stock, 48 is a reasonable starting point. Busier operations or event hire companies typically need to hold more to account for simultaneous use, washing cycles, and ongoing attrition. If you are unsure of the right quantity for your setup, it is worth having a conversation before you order.
