Product Overview

Here’s a piece of kit that’s less about glamour and  more about being an unsung hero in your kitchen. Introducing the Cambro FD074, a brilliantly simple and  robust 30 compartment glass rack. Designed for the relentless pace of professional bars, bustling restaurants, and  high-turnover event caterers, this rack is your first line of defence against chips, cracks, and  the general chaos of a busy service. It’s the smart way to handle your glassware from washer to shelf and  back again.

Specifically created for businesses that value efficiency and  protecting their assets, this commercial dishwasher glass rack holds up to 30 glasses, each safely nestled in its own compartment.

Ultimately, the Cambro FD074 is about making your operation smoother, safer, and  more cost-effective. By drastically reducing breakages and  speeding up your wash-to-serve cycle, it pays for itself in no time.

It’s a small investment for a huge improvement in your daily workflow.

In any busy pub, the speed at which you can turn around clean glasses directly impacts your bottom line. The Cambro rack isn't fancy, but it excels at its core job.

  • Rock Solid: The build quality is excellent; it doesn't flex or warp, even when fully loaded.
  • Standard Sizing: Won't fit wider-based craft beer glasses or bulky cocktail tumblers.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Swan Inn, a popular riverside pub in Norwich, was facing a constant battle with glass breakages during their hectic weekend services. Their old, mismatched racks offered poor protection, leading to costly replacements and  slowing down the bar team.

"We were practically throwing money in the bin with the number of glasses we lost each month. Service was getting held up because we couldn't get clean glasses out to the bar fast enough. It was a real headache."

Liam O'Connell – Pub Manager

After investing in a set of Cambro FD074 racks, The Swan Inn saw a dramatic improvement. Their monthly glass breakage costs plummeted by over 75%, and  the organised, stackable system allowed the bar staff to keep well ahead of demand, even during peak hours.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • It’s good to go! This rack is ready to use straight from the box, with no assembly required.
  • Before its first official use, we recommend running it through an empty wash cycle to ensure it's perfectly clean.
  • Confirm the rack's 500x500mm footprint is compatible with your make and  model of commercial glasswasher.
  • Load your glasses, making sure they are shorter than the 133mm maximum height for a safe and  secure fit.

Keeping It Going

  • After a busy service, give the rack a quick rinse to remove any food debris or lime deposits.
  • The polypropylene is incredibly tough, but try to avoid dropping it when fully loaded to prevent damage.
  • When stacking, ensure the corners are properly aligned for stability and  to prevent them from toppling over.
  • If you get any stubborn grime, a quick scrub with a soft brush and  standard kitchen detergent is all you need.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Glass Rack

Not sure what fits best for your business? Choosing the right glass rack can make a huge difference. Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Measure Your Glassware

The most important step! Measure your tallest, most frequently used glass. Ensure the rack's maximum height clearance (this one is 133mm) is sufficient to prevent chipping the rim.

Check the Width

Height isn't everything. Check the maximum glass diameter the rack can hold. This ensures your glasses fit snugly without rattling around or being too tight to remove easily.

Consider Your Storage Space

If space is at a premium (and when isn't it?), a stackable design like this 30 compartment glass rack Cambro is non-negotiable. It helps you use vertical space efficiently and  keeps your storage areas tidy.

Match Rack to Machine

The vast majority of commercial dishwashers and  glasswashers use a standard 500x500mm rack size. However, it's always a good idea to quickly double-check your machine's manual.

How Many Compartments?

A 30-compartment rack is fantastic for high-volume, uniform glasses like wine or hiball glasses. For larger, bulkier items like cocktail shakers or pint mugs, you might need a rack with fewer, larger compartments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will this Cambro FD074 glass washer rack fit my dishwasher?

A: This rack has a standard 500x500mm footprint, which fits the vast majority of commercial glasswashers and  dishwashers. It's always best to measure your machine's internal dimensions if you're unsure.

Q: What material is the rack made from?

A: It's constructed from high-quality, durable polypropylene, which is resistant to chemicals, detergents, and  high temperatures found in commercial wash cycles.

Q: Can I safely stack these racks when they're full of glasses?

A: Absolutely. They are specifically designed with interlocking corners for secure stacking, whether they are empty or full, helping you save valuable space.

Q: Is this rack suitable for standard UK pint glasses?

A: It depends on the glass. As long as the pint glass is shorter than 133mm and  has a diameter less than 79.4mm, it will fit perfectly.

Q: How do the compartments protect the glasses?

A: Each glass sits in its own individual compartment, which prevents it from knocking, jostling, or rubbing against other glasses during washing and  transport, the main cause of chipping and  breakage.

Q: Does the open design really make a difference to drying times?

A: Yes, significantly. The open walls allow for maximum air circulation around the glasses after the wash cycle, which speeds up evaporation and  helps prevent water spots.

Q: Is the rack heavy to lift?

A: When empty, the rack is very lightweight and  easy to handle. The final weight, of course, depends on how many glasses you have loaded into it.

Q: Can I buy extenders for this rack if I have taller glasses?

A: Yes, Cambro produces extenders that can be added to this base rack to accommodate taller glassware. These are typically sold separately.

The Cambro Advantage: An Investment in Efficiency

For decades, Cambro has been a cornerstone of the foodservice industry, building a reputation on products that are intelligently designed and  incredibly durable. This rack is a perfect example of that philosophy. The long-term value isn't just in the rack itself, but in the money it saves you day after day. Fewer broken glasses, less staff time spent re-washing or hand-polishing, and  faster turnaround all contribute directly to a healthier bottom line. It’s a solution engineered to reduce waste and  inefficiency, freeing up your team to focus on customer service rather than back-of-house frustrations. This is equipment designed not just to do a job, but to make your entire operation run better.

More Than Just a Grid: Why the Open-Compartment Design is Key

You might look at the open walls of this rack and  think it’s a simple design choice, but there’s some clever science behind it. This open-compartment structure is engineered specifically to improve cleaning and  drying performance in a commercial setting. It’s all about maximising the effectiveness of your glasswasher.

Think of it like this: trying to clean something behind a solid wall is tough. A closed-wall rack can create 'shadows' where water jets from the washer can't reach, leaving residue or water spots behind. The Cambro’s open design acts more like a scaffold, holding glasses securely while allowing hot water and  detergent to spray them from every possible angle. This guarantees a thorough, hygienic clean. Afterwards, that same openness lets air circulate freely, slashing drying time and  leaving you with sparkling, streak-free glasses ready for service much faster.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Pubs & Bars: Keep pint and  wine glasses cycling through the wash quickly and  safely during the busiest shifts.
  • Restaurants & Bistros: Protect delicate and  expensive stemware from chips and  scratches, from dishwasher to table service.
  • Event Caterers: A must-have for safely transporting large volumes of clean, ready-to-use glassware to and  from venues.
  • Hotels & Function Venues: Essential for maintaining a high standard of glassware hygiene and  organisation for bars and  events.
