More and more caterers pubs, bars, nightclubs and leisure centres are starting to buy reusable plastic beer glasses from Chef & Supplies to use in their establishments, and it isn’t hard to understand why. Strong, attractive, and shatter-resistant, they are virtually unbreakable. These products hold many advantages over their glass alternative and are virtually indistinguishable to the naked eye. Here are just a few of the reasons why you should make the switch.
Reusable Plastic Glasses are environmentally-friendly
People often jump to the conclusion that glass beer glasses are naturally friendlier to the environment than reusable plastic beer glasses. However, this is not necessarily the case.
Polycarbonate beer glasses can be recycled, meaning that they won’t be sent to landfill like other plastic glasses. Additionally, the fact that they are both incredibly strong and reusable means that they’ll almost always last longer than glass, so the environmental cost of production is reduced.
Reusable Plastic Glasses are incredibly durable
Polycarbonate beer, spirit, wine and cocktail glasses are virtually indestructible, and they definitely won’t shatter if dropped, as would a traditional glass. This means you’ll spend less money each month replacing broken items, while seeing your cleaning time drop dramatically and your safety record sour. They can also be washed in a glasswasher just the same as glass so, no special treatment necessary.
Customers will also appreciate the durability of these glasses. Areas in which glass is dropped need to be closed off so that they can be cleaned, but there’s no such problem when you buy reusable plastic glasses from Chef & Bar Supplies.
Also, there is no need for beer, spirits, wines or even cocktails to look shoddy in reusable plastic glasses as the high quality finish, variation of shape and even colouring are now easily available and will actually enhance your drinks offer, not detract. We even offer reusable plastic beer glasses with nucleation (head retainers) and stacking facility built in! Our most popular range at this time is the Black and White Reusable Plastic Glasses. They include American style tall hiball and rocks tumblers and high quality wine glasses, champagne flutes and martini glass....all made from virtually indestructable polycarbonate. The striking Black and White high gloss finish will make any bar or night club drink service look spectacular!
Reusable Plastic Glasses are far safer
Probably the most compelling reason for changing from glass to reusable plastic is that the latter are simply far safer. We’ve already mentioned how broken beer glasses can put a constant dent in your finances, but the safety problems associated with them can be far more troubling.
Broken glass is sharp, so it can easily cause injuries, especially when people are inebriated. However, the greater problem is that shards can be used as a weapon. This is why it’s becoming increasingly common for Police to enforce licensing restrictions is some area’s and insist that plastic is used in pubs and clubs. Violent customers might not ever have been a problem before, but keep in mind that just one incident could really harm your business.
Reusable plastic glasses can also be a boon for the outside function caterers, saving time and money and the Leisure Centre industry to give ultimate safety levels in and around pools, spa’s and other vulnerable public areas.
The decision to buy reusable plastic glasses from Chef & Bar Supplies will mean less breakages, more profit and greater piece of mind.
