Product Description
This is a replacement or additional wash basket designed specifically for Classeq C500 series warewashers. It follows the standard 500x500mm footprint used across that range and features tall open sides rather than the lower-profile design typically used for crockery. That height difference is what makes it suited to glasses and cups, which need upright support to wash and drain properly without toppling or nesting inside one another.
In a busy bar or front-of-house environment, having a dedicated glass basket rather than improvising with a general-purpose one makes a meaningful difference to throughput. Glasses sit more securely, the open construction allows water and detergent to reach all surfaces, and the taller sides reduce the risk of items shifting mid-cycle. For venues running continuous glasswashing during service, having a second or third basket in rotation — one washing, one being loaded, one being unloaded — is a straightforward way to keep the machine moving without interruption.
The basket is constructed from plastic, which keeps it light enough to handle repeatedly during a shift without operator fatigue becoming an issue. At 2kg unladen, it is easy to carry even when loaded with glassware.
A few practical points worth noting: this basket is sized for the Classeq C500 range and may not be compatible with machines from other manufacturers or Classeq models that use a different basket footprint. It is worth confirming your machine model before ordering if you have any doubt.
If you are unsure whether this basket suits your machine or want to discuss how many baskets make sense for your service volume, the team is happy to help you work that out.

Frequently Asked Questions
- This basket is designed for Classeq machines that accept a 500x500mm basket, including the C500 range. If you are unsure whether your specific model uses this footprint, it is worth checking your machine documentation or speaking to the team before ordering, as basket compatibility varies across Classeq's product range.
- For a bar running continuous glasswashing during service, two to three baskets in rotation is a common practical approach — one inside the machine, one being loaded at the bar, and one being unloaded and returned to use. This keeps the machine cycling without waiting for a basket to become free, which makes a noticeable difference to throughput during peak periods.
- The tall open sides are specifically suited to glasses and cups that need upright support. For plates and bowls, a peg or flat-rack basket designed for crockery will generally perform better, as the taller sides on this basket offer less support for flat items and reduce usable capacity for that purpose.
