Steelite Capella Stack Clear Polycarbonate Hiball 296ml (Box 12)

The Steelite Capella Stack hiball is a 296ml polycarbonate tumbler designed for commercial beverage service where breakage risk or outdoor use makes glass an impractical choice. Made from high-quality polycarbonate, these glasses are built to withstand the kind of handling that glass cannot — busy bar service, outdoor terraces, poolside, events catering, and anywhere that a dropped glass creates a safety or operational problem.

In service, polycarbonate performs well under pressure. The clarity of the material gives a cleaner, more presentable finish than many cheaper plastic alternatives, and the stackable design means storage and handling during busy periods is straightforward. Staff can retrieve, stock, and clear glasses more efficiently when they nest securely rather than taking up shelf space individually.

From an operator's perspective, the practical advantages are worth noting:

• Stackable design reduces storage footprint behind the bar or in prep areas
• Polycarbonate construction significantly reduces breakage and replacement costs
• Suitable for outdoor and high-footfall service environments
• Easier and safer to handle during high-volume clearing
• Sold in a box of 12, suited to stocking in multiples for busy operations

It is worth being aware that polycarbonate glassware should not be cleaned in commercial dishwashers running very high temperatures or with harsh abrasive chemicals, as this can cloud the material over time. Standard commercial glasswasher cycles at appropriate temperatures will generally maintain clarity with correct detergent selection.

These tumblers are well suited to venues running outdoor service, festivals, stadium or arena hospitality, pub gardens, and any operation where glass is restricted or the breakage rate is creating cost pressure. For venues requiring a larger format or a full-glass alternative for indoor use, other options in the range may be worth considering.

If you are unsure whether polycarbonate is the right choice for your service style or are looking to specify glassware across multiple formats, the team is happy to talk it through.
