Steelite Design+ Martini Glass 296ml Polycarbonate (Box of 12)

The Steelite Design+ Martini glass is a 296ml polycarbonate drinkware piece designed to replicate the look of conventional glassware in environments where glass presents a safety or operational risk. Made from polycarbonate rather than glass, the collection is shatterproof, making it a practical option wherever breakage is a concern — outdoor terraces, rooftop bars, poolside service, and festival or event catering being the most common applications.

In busy service environments, the practical case for polycarbonate is straightforward. Broken glass in a poolside or outdoor bar setting creates immediate safety and service disruption. Switching to a well-presented polycarbonate alternative allows operators to maintain a credible presentation standard without the hazard. The Design+ range is manufactured to hold its appearance across repeated use cycles, resisting the cloudiness that cheaper polycarbonate pieces can develop over time.

Operationally, this format suits venues where the guest experience needs to remain polished despite the constraints of the setting:

• Shatterproof construction reduces breakage losses in high-risk service areas
• Polycarbonate material is lightweight, reducing fatigue for service staff
• 296ml capacity is appropriate for standard cocktail and martini serves
• Supplied in boxes of 12, supporting straightforward stock management
• Maintains presentable appearance across repeated service and wash cycles

It is worth noting that polycarbonate drinkware, including this range, is not intended to replace glassware in standard indoor fine-dining or formal bar settings — the material has a different look and feel under close inspection. It performs best where practicality and safety are the primary drivers of the choice.

This glass is well suited to outdoor hospitality venues, event caterers, leisure and spa facilities, and any site operating poolside or rooftop beverage service. For operations requiring a broader range of polycarbonate formats — wine, champagne, or highball — companion pieces are available within the same Design+ collection.
