Product Description
The Steelite Design+ Mixing Glass is a 414ml polycarbonate drinkware piece designed for commercial beverage service in environments where standard glassware presents a practical or safety risk. Made from polycarbonate rather than glass, it is shatterproof by nature — an important consideration for rooftop bars, poolside settings, outdoor terraces, and any high-footfall venue where broken glass creates a genuine hazard for staff and guests alike.
In service, polycarbonate drinkware of this type holds up well under the demands of busy shifts. The material resists cracking and chipping through repeated handling, commercial glasswashing cycles, and the knocks that come with high-volume service. The 414ml capacity makes it a practical size for mixed drinks and long serves, and the Design+ range is shaped to give a more considered presentation than basic utility-grade polycarbonate alternatives.
Practical advantages for operators include:
- Shatterproof construction reduces breakage costs and injury risk
- Suitable for commercial glasswasher use
- Supplied in a box of 12 for straightforward stock management
- Consistent appearance maintained across a full set for front-of-house presentation
- Lightweight handling reduces fatigue during high-volume service
It is worth noting that polycarbonate, while durable, can dull or discolour over time if cleaned with abrasive chemicals or outside recommended temperature ranges. Following the manufacturer's care guidance will extend the usable life of each piece considerably. This format suits venues with moderate to high glass turnover; operations requiring a very large initial quantity may want to discuss volume options.
This mixing glass is well suited to licensed premises, event catering operations, hotel pool and spa areas, and any venue managing outdoor beverage service. If you are equipping a new outdoor space or replacing existing stock and would like guidance on quantities or complementary pieces from the range, the team is happy to help you work through the requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes, polycarbonate drinkware of this type is generally compatible with commercial glasswashing equipment, though it is important to follow the manufacturer's recommended temperature and chemical guidelines. Using overly aggressive detergents or excessively high wash temperatures can cause clouding or surface degradation over time, which will shorten the usable life of each piece.
- Polycarbonate is shatterproof and significantly more resistant to the knocks and drops of high-volume service than standard glassware. It is the practical choice for outdoor terraces, rooftop bars, and poolside settings where broken glass presents a safety risk. The trade-off is that polycarbonate can show wear over time, particularly if cleaning protocols are not followed — so stock rotation is worth factoring into your planning.
- For a small to medium outdoor operation, a box of 12 is a reasonable starting point, particularly if you are supplementing existing stock. Higher-volume venues or those running large events will typically want to hold more units to maintain service without interruption between wash cycles. If you are setting up a new space and are unsure of the right quantity, we are happy to talk through your service volumes and help you arrive at a sensible opening order.
