Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The team at 'The Swan Inn', a popular gastropub in York, were struggling with significant glassware breakage during their hectic weekend service, slowing down their bar's turnaround.

"We were losing money on broken glasses every single weekend. These racks are solid, they fit our washer perfectly, and  the staff find them much easier to handle. It's a small change that's made a big difference to our bottom line and  reduced a lot of stress for the team."

David Knight – General Manager

After switching to the Cambro Camracks, the pub reported a reduction in glassware breakage by over 70% and  a 20% faster glass washing cycle during peak hours.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Give the rack a quick rinse with warm water before its first use.
  • Check your tallest glass against the 257mm max height to ensure a good fit.
  • Confirm your dishwasher can accommodate a standard 500x500mm rack.
  • For best results, stack only with other compatible Cambro Camracks to ensure stability.

Keeping It Going

  • Rinse out any food debris or sediment from the rack after each wash cycle.
  • For tougher stains, use a non-abrasive commercial cleaner and  a soft brush.
  • Periodically check handles and  the base to ensure there's no damage.
  • Store in a clean, dry area when not in use to prolong its life.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Glass Rack

Not sure which rack is right for your needs? Here are a few key things to consider before you buy.

Measure Your Tallest Glass

Always measure your tallest and  widest glassware to ensure it fits comfortably within the compartments and  below the rack's maximum height. A little wiggle room is ideal!

Consider Compartment Count

A 36 compartment glass washer rack is perfect for standard tumblers and  wine glasses. For larger balloon gins or bulky glasses, you might need a rack with fewer, larger compartments.

Think About Stacking

If storage space is tight, choosing racks from the same brand like Cambro is a smart move. They are designed to inter-stack securely, preventing dangerous slips and  saving floor space.

Material Matters

Polypropylene is the professional choice for a reason. It’s tough, resistant to cleaning chemicals, and  handles high temperatures, guaranteeing a long and  reliable service life.

Plan for Transport

If you move racks often (e.g., for event catering), look for features like sturdy, easy-to-grip handles and  a solid, enclosed design to minimise accidents and  protect your stock on the move.

Why Compartments and  Closed Walls Mean Fewer Breakages

Ever tried to carry a jumble of loose glasses? It’s a recipe for disaster. Think of this rack's individual compartments like a custom-made protective case for each glass. They stop glasses from clinking and  clattering against each other during washing or transport, which is the number one cause of chips and  cracks. The closed outer walls add another layer of safety, acting like a bumper to prevent accidental knocks and  keeping stray hands or contaminants away from your clean glassware. It's a simple, clever design that directly saves you money and  hassle in the long run.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Busy Pubs & Bars: Protect your pint glasses and  stemware during high-volume washing, reducing costly breakages on busy nights.
  • Hotels & Conference Centres: Ensure a constant supply of sparkling, unchipped glassware for guest rooms, restaurants, and  event functions.
  • Event Caterers: Easily transport and  wash large quantities of glassware securely, from your kitchen to the venue and  back again.
  • Schools & Large Canteens: A durable and  safe solution for washing hundreds of tumblers daily, standing up to institutional demands.
