Product Description
The Steelite Design+ Grande Margarita is a 473ml polycarbonate drinkware piece from the Design+ Contemporary collection, manufactured by Strahl and supplied by Steelite. It is designed to replicate the look and feel of glassware while being made from durable polycarbonate, making it shatterproof and therefore practical for environments where standard glass is unsuitable or prohibited.
In operational terms, polycarbonate drinkware of this type is commonly used in rooftop bars, poolside service areas, outdoor terraces, and festival or event catering where the risk of breakage carries a safety or liability concern. The margarita format suits cocktail and mocktail service, and the 473ml capacity is a practical size for standard cocktail portions. Polycarbonate does not carry the weight penalty of genuine glassware, which can ease handling pressure on floor staff during busy service periods.
Key practical considerations for operators:
- Shatterproof polycarbonate construction suitable for outdoor and high-risk service areas
- 473ml capacity suited to standard cocktail and margarita portions
- Reusable and designed to maintain a glass-like appearance over repeated service
- Supplied in a box of 12, practical for stock management and table setups
- Lightweight construction reduces handling strain during high-volume service
It is worth noting that polycarbonate drinkware requires careful washing — high-temperature commercial dishwashers and abrasive cleaners can cloud or damage the surface over time. Hand washing or gentle low-temperature cycles will extend the life of the product significantly. Polycarbonate is also not suitable for microwave use.
This product is well suited to licensed venues, hotel pool bars, outdoor event caterers, and any operator needing presentable drinkware in a glass-free environment. If you serve high volumes across multiple outdoor areas and need to assess quantities or presentation options, the team is happy to help you work through the right approach before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes, polycarbonate drinkware of this type is commonly specified for licensed outdoor venues where local authority licensing conditions or site risk assessments restrict the use of glass. It is advisable to confirm the specific requirements of your premises licence with your licensing officer, but shatterproof polycarbonate is widely accepted for this purpose.
- Polycarbonate drinkware is best washed at lower temperatures and without abrasive chemicals or scouring agents, which can cloud or permanently mark the surface. If you are using a commercial glasswasher, check that the cycle temperature and detergent concentration are within the manufacturer's guidelines for polycarbonate — this will significantly extend the working life of the product.
- That depends on your cover count, service pace, and how frequently you can run your glasswasher during service. As a general guide, operators running continuous outdoor service often hold two to three times their seated cover count in glassware to allow for turnaround time. If you'd like help estimating quantities for your specific setup, the team can advise based on your service volume.
