Expert Review and  Insights

The Cambro Camrack is one of those unglamorous heroes of the back bar. It's not flashy, but its solid build and  clever design just work.

It’s a simple, effective tool that solves a very common and  costly problem.

  • Tough as Nails: The polypropylene construction feels incredibly robust for daily commercial battering.
  • Limited Height: Only fits glasses up to 92mm, so double-check your taller stemware.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Swan's Nest Inn, a popular pub in Windermere, Cumbria, was struggling with consistent glassware breakage during their hectic tourist season. Their manual washing and  storage system was inefficient and  costly, prompting them to look for a professional solution.

"We were losing money on broken glasses every single week. The Cambro Camrack glassware racks are solid, they stack perfectly, and  our staff can move them around quickly and  safely. It's made a huge difference to our back-of-house operation and  our bottom line."

Michael Davies – General Manager

After implementing the Cambro DW550 racks, the inn reported a 90% reduction in glassware breakages and  freed up significant shelf space due to efficient, secure stacking.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • This rack is ready to use straight out of the box - no assembly required!
  • Before your first use, give it a quick wash or run it through an empty dishwasher cycle.
  • Confirm that your glassware fits comfortably within the 92mm height and  111mm width limits of the compartments.
  • Show your team how to use the four-sided handles for safe and  balanced lifting.

Keeping It Going

  • Regularly wash the rack to prevent any build-up of residue or limescale.
  • When stacking, ensure the racks are aligned properly to create a stable, secure tower.
  • Periodically check for any cracks or damage, especially if used heavily, to ensure continued protection.
  • Store in a dry area away from direct sunlight to maximise the lifespan of the polypropylene.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Glass Rack

Not sure what fits best for your business? Picking the right warewashing rack is simple when you know what to look for. Here are a few tips to get it right the first time.

Measure Your Glasses First

The most important step! Measure the height and  widest diameter of your most-used glasses. Make sure they fit comfortably inside the rack's compartment dimensions to avoid damage.

Count Your Compartments

Do you need to wash 16, 25, or 36 glasses at a time? Choose a rack with a compartment count that matches the volume and  speed of your operation.

Check Your Dishwasher Size

Virtually all UK commercial dishwashers use a standard 500x500mm rack. This Cambro rack is that size, but it's always worth double-checking your machine's specifications.

Think About Stacking

If storage space is tight, a rack designed for secure stacking is a non-negotiable feature. It turns floor space into vertical, organised storage.

Consider Handling and  Transport

Racks with handles on all four sides, like this one, are far easier and  safer for staff to carry, especially when navigating a busy kitchen or bar area.

The Cambro Standard: Engineered for the Real World

When you buy a Cambro product, you're not just buying a piece of plastic; you're investing in decades of food service innovation. The Cambro Camrack glassware rack is a prime example of this philosophy. It’s engineered to solve real-world operational headaches. Think about the hidden costs it eliminates: the constant re-ordering of chipped glasses, the staff time wasted on careful manual handling, and  the reputational risk of serving a customer with a damaged glass. This rack is designed for durability and  a long service life, reducing waste and  the need for frequent replacements. Cambro's trust within the industry is built on creating products that deliver tangible value day in, day out. This isn’t just storage; it’s an investment in a smoother, safer, and  more profitable service.

More Than Just a Box: Why Closed Walls Matter

Ever wondered why the Cambro Camrack has solid outer walls instead of an open grid all around? It’s a small detail that makes a massive difference. Those closed walls act as a protective shield for your clean glassware during transport from the washer to the shelf or service area.

Think of it like a reinforced bumper on a car. It keeps stray fingers, dirty cloths, and  other contaminants from accidentally touching your sparkling clean glasses. This is crucial for hygiene and  professional presentation. Furthermore, this design adds huge structural strength, preventing the rack from flexing or twisting when it's fully loaded with heavy glasses, ensuring a safer journey through a busy kitchen.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Busy Pubs & Bars: Streamline your glasswashing process from bar to cellar, drastically cutting down on breakages during peak hours.
  • Event Caterers & Hire Companies: Safely transport and  store large quantities of glassware, ensuring they arrive clean and  intact every time.
  • Hotels & Conference Centres: Manage high volumes of tumblers for breakfast service, meetings, and  events with professional efficiency.
  • Restaurants & Bistros: Keep your delicate wine glasses and  tumblers protected in the wash and  neatly stacked away in storage.
