Product Description
The Steelite Vivaldi Rocks tumbler is a 296ml polycarbonate rocks glass designed for commercial beverage service. Made from high-quality polycarbonate, it is produced to look markedly closer to glassware than most plastic alternatives — the clarity is notably good for this type of product, which matters when presentation standards need to be maintained without the breakage risk of real glass.
In busy service environments — poolside bars, outdoor terraces, festival venues, sports facilities, and high-turnover casual dining — polycarbonate drinkware takes the punishment that glassware cannot. The Vivaldi range holds up well under repeated washing cycles and the daily knock-about of commercial use, and the 296ml capacity suits standard short drinks, cocktails on the rocks, soft drinks, and water service equally well.
From an operational standpoint, the practical advantages are straightforward:
- Shatter-resistant construction reduces glass breakage incidents and associated service disruption
- Lightweight build reduces fatigue for servers carrying fully loaded trays
- High optical clarity maintains a presentable appearance on the pass and at the table
- Polycarbonate construction is suitable for commercial glasswasher use
- Supplied in a box of 12, making stock management and reordering straightforward
It is worth noting that polycarbonate drinkware does scratch over time with repeated washing, which can gradually affect clarity. Operators running high-frequency wash cycles should factor in periodic replacement as part of their consumable budget — though the cost per unit at this level makes that a manageable consideration.
This tumbler is well suited to venues where glassware safety policies restrict the use of real glass, or where outdoor and high-volume service makes breakage an ongoing cost. If you need a larger capacity or a different profile for a specific drink serve, it is worth speaking with the team to make sure the size works for your glassware range.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes, polycarbonate is generally compatible with commercial glasswasher cycles, though high-temperature or harsh chemical cycles can accelerate scratching and clouding over time. Using a detergent formulated for polycarbonate will help extend the useful life of the tumblers.
- As a rough guide, most operators aim for at least three to four times their seated cover count to allow for glasses in service, in the wash, and in reserve. For high-turnover venues or outdoor events, building in additional stock is sensible given the pace of service.
- Yes — the Vivaldi range is a practical choice for venues where glass is restricted, such as outdoor terraces, poolside areas, sports grounds, and festival or event catering. The clarity of the polycarbonate means the presentation is noticeably better than opaque or coloured plastic alternatives.
