Product Description
The Steelite Capella Stack is a 266ml rocks-style tumbler made from polycarbonate — a robust plastic material widely used in commercial beverage service where glassware breakage or outdoor use presents a practical risk. Sold in boxes of 12, these are a straightforward solution for operators who need a reliable, glass-like vessel without the fragility of actual glass.
Polycarbonate drinkware of this type is commonly found in poolside bars, outdoor terraces, festival catering, event venues, and anywhere that health and safety requirements make glass unsuitable. The material offers good clarity, so drinks are presented well, and the rocks format suits spirits, cocktails, soft drinks, and water service equally.
From an operational standpoint, the stackable design is a practical detail worth noting:
- Reduces storage footprint behind the bar or in service areas
- Speeds up restocking during busy service periods
- Lowers the risk of scratching compared with loose-stored glassware
- Reduces breakage losses and associated replacement costs
- Lightweight construction eases handling during high-volume service
It is worth being clear about limitations. Polycarbonate is not equivalent to premium crystal glass in terms of aesthetics or feel, and most polycarbonate drinkware is not suitable for dishwasher use at very high temperatures over extended periods — operators should check their warewashing cycle against manufacturer guidance to maintain clarity over time. These are also not intended for hot beverages.
This size and format is well suited to smaller bars, outdoor venues, and event caterers looking for a cost-effective, stackable option at a modest price per unit. Higher-volume operations with more demanding throughput requirements may want to consider larger case quantities or a heavier-gauge polycarbonate range.
If you are unsure whether polycarbonate drinkware is the right fit for your service style or venue type, our team is happy to talk it through.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes — polycarbonate is one of the most practical choices for outdoor terraces, poolside bars, and event venues where glass is either prohibited or presents a safety risk. The material is shatter-resistant and lightweight, which makes it well suited to these environments.
- Polycarbonate drinkware can generally be machine-washed, but prolonged exposure to very high wash temperatures or aggressive detergents can cause the material to cloud or craze over time. We would recommend checking your warewasher's cycle temperature and using a detergent formulated for polycarbonate to maintain clarity and extend the working life of the glasses.
- No — polycarbonate tumblers of this type are intended for cold beverages only and are not suitable for hot drinks. If you need a robust vessel for hot drinks in an outdoor or high-risk breakage environment, a double-walled stainless or specialist thermoplastic option would be more appropriate.
