The Steelite Design+ Martini glass is a 240ml polycarbonate drinkware piece designed to replicate the look of conventional glassware in environments where standard glass is impractical or poses a safety risk. Made from polycarbonate, it is shatterproof by nature, making it a practical choice for outdoor hospitality settings where broken glass is a genuine operational concern.

In service, polycarbonate at this quality level holds its clarity reasonably well with correct care, and the martini profile suits cocktail and spirits service in a way that a standard tumbler does not. For rooftop bars, poolside venues, festival bars, and outdoor event catering, this style of drinkware allows operators to maintain a considered presentation without compromising on guest or staff safety.

From an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages are:

  • Shatterproof construction reduces breakage costs and safety incidents outdoors
  • Polycarbonate material is lightweight, easing handling during busy service
  • Martini profile suits cocktail menus and adds a level of presentation polish
  • Supplied in a box of 12, practical for building par stock or topping up existing sets
  • Suitable for venues where glass is prohibited by licence condition or house policy

It is worth noting that polycarbonate drinkware requires careful washing — high-temperature or harsh detergent cycles can cloud the material over time. Hand washing or low-temperature machine cycles will extend the service life noticeably. These glasses are not a substitute for fine crystal in a formal dining setting, but they are well suited to the outdoor and casual hospitality contexts they are designed for.

If you are stocking a new outdoor space or refreshing an existing set and want to talk through quantities or suitability for your venue type, we are happy to help.

Frequently asked questions

Are these suitable for dishwasher use in a commercial kitchen?

Polycarbonate drinkware can be machine washed, but high-temperature cycles and aggressive detergents will cloud the material over time. A low-temperature programme with a polycarbonate-safe detergent will significantly extend the service life of these glasses.

How do these compare to standard glass for outdoor cocktail service?

Polycarbonate does not have the weight or absolute clarity of lead-free crystal, but at service distance the visual difference is minimal. The practical advantage — no breakage risk, no glass on a poolside or rooftop — tends to outweigh the aesthetic compromise in most outdoor hospitality contexts.

Is a box of 12 sufficient for a typical outdoor bar setup?

It depends on your cover count and service pace. A box of 12 is a useful starting point for a small terrace or as a top-up to an existing set, but a busier venue with a cocktail-heavy menu will typically need several boxes to maintain a working par stock through a full service.
