How to choose the right Polystyrene Glasses

• Match glass size and measure to your drinks menu, from 25 ml shots to half-pint and pint servings.
• Decide between disposable and reusable options based on your waste policy and washing facilities.
• Check for UKCA and CE markings if you need legally compliant measures in licensed bars.
• Consider glass style, such as wine, tumbler or bomber cups, to suit your service and presentation.
• Assess expected volume of use at events or in busy venues to choose pack sizes and durability levels.
• Think about where they will be used, selecting tougher options for outdoor or high-risk areas.

Care and maintenance

• For reusable polystyrene glasses, follow manufacturer guidance on dishwasher compatibility and temperature limits.
• Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals that can cloud or scratch the plastic surface.
• Allow glasses to cool before stacking to prevent warping and to keep rims in good condition.
• Store stacked glasses in clean, dry areas to protect against dust and contamination.
• Inspect regularly for cracks or heavy wear and remove damaged items from service.
• Use appropriate glass racks or crates during transport to minimise scuffs and extend service life.
