- Simple Design: Lacks the unique, craft feel some boutique bars might prefer.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Anchor & Crown, a busy riverside pub in York, was struggling with high glassware breakage rates from standard glasses, especially during the peak tourist season.
"We were losing glasses left, right, and centre on busy weekends. Switching to these toughened Arcoroc glasses has made a huge difference. They feel sturdy, our staff love them, and our customers get a great-looking pint every time."
David Thompson – Landlord
The pub reduced its monthly glassware replacement costs by nearly 60% within the first three months of use.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Before first use, always inspect glasses for any chips or cracks from transit.
- Run the full case through a hot glasswasher cycle to ensure they are pristine and sanitised.
- Use a quality rinse aid in your machine to prevent water spots and ensure a sparkling finish.
- Allow glasses to cool completely before stacking to avoid thermal shock which can cause cracks.
Keeping It Going
- Only use a dedicated glasswasher. Standard dishwasher detergents can leave a residue that kills beer head.
- Regularly check and clean your glasswasher's filters to prevent debris from scratching the glass.
- For safety and presentation, immediately discard any glass that becomes chipped or cracked.
- Avoid clinking glasses together by the rim; handle them by the base or body where possible.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these glasses really pint-sized?
A: Yes, they are 570ml, which is the legal measurement for a UK pint. They are also CE marked to officially certify this capacity for draught service.
Q: What does 'toughened' actually mean?
A: The glass undergoes a special thermal treatment process. This makes it up to five times more resistant to impact and temperature changes than standard, untreated glass.
Q: Does the Fosters branding fade in the wash?
A: The branding is applied to be durable for commercial use and is resistant to fading from repeated cycles in a professional glasswasher.
Q: Can I stack these glasses?
A: Their classic tapered shape allows for some careful stacking. For safety and longevity, we recommend using dedicated glass stacking racks or mats.
Q: What is the benefit of a nucleated base?
A: The tiny etchings on the base create a continuous stream of bubbles, which constantly replenishes the beer's head, improving presentation and aroma.
Q: Are they suitable for soft drinks too?
A: Absolutely. Their durable build and classic design make them a perfect all-purpose glass for serving pints of soft drinks, cordials, or water.
Q: What is the diameter of the glass?
A: The diameter at the rim is 80mm, a standard size that fits well in hand and in commercial glasswasher racks.
Q: Are these glasses heavy?
A: They have a reassuring weight that feels sturdy and high-quality without being too heavy for staff or customers to handle comfortably.

Explore more from ArcorocThe Secret to a Perfect Pint Head: What is Nucleation?
Ever wondered how some pubs pour a pint with a lively head that lasts right to the final sip? The secret is often nucleation. At the base of these glasses, there are tiny, laser-etched points. You can barely see them, but they act as a trigger, continuously releasing bubbles of carbon dioxide from the beer. Think of it like a tiny, built-in champagne spring, constantly refreshing the foam from the bottom up. This not only makes the pint look far more appealing but also enhances the aroma and taste experience for your customers, proving that the best pint is about more than just the liquid inside.
