Expert Review and Insights
It’s easy to overlook something like a glass rack, but the Cambro DW563 is a prime example of how a small detail can have a massive impact on your bottom line. It’s not just a plastic box; it’s an engineered tool for asset protection. The rigid construction and individual compartments mean fewer breakages, which directly translates to cost savings and a smoother, less stressful service.
Oliver Bennett – Catering Equipment Expert View Profile →
- Top Pick: Its rigid design significantly reduces costly glassware chips and cracks.
- Consideration: The fixed compartments are less suited for unusually wide or bulky glassware.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Harbour Lights Brasserie in Falmouth, Cornwall, was experiencing constant chipping and breakages of their delicate wine glasses, especially during the hectic summer tourist season. Their old, flimsy racks offered little protection, leading to frustrating losses and delays.
"We were losing several expensive glasses a week. The Cambro racks changed everything. They are solid, they stack perfectly, and the glasses come out sparkling and, most importantly, in one piece. Our staff can work faster and with more confidence."
Ben Carter – Restaurant Manager
After switching to the Cambro DW563, the brasserie reported an 85% drop in glassware breakages, saving them hundreds of pounds within the first quarter.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Before first use, run the empty rack through a rinse cycle to remove any dust from shipping.
- Ensure your glassware fits comfortably within the compartments without being too loose or tight.
- Load glasses upside down to ensure they drain properly and to prevent water pooling.
- Confirm the 500x500mm dimensions are compatible with your dishwasher's tray guides.
Keeping It Going
- Regularly check the rack for any debris that could clog dishwasher jets.
- If you're in a hard water area, occasionally run the rack through a cycle with a descaling agent.
- When stacking, ensure the racks are interlocked correctly for maximum stability.
- Avoid dropping the rack, especially when fully loaded, to maintain its structural integrity.

The Cambro Commitment: An Investment in Efficiency
When you choose a Cambro product, you're investing in more than just a piece of equipment; you're investing in a smarter workflow. For decades, Cambro has been a trusted name in professional catering for one simple reason: their products are built to last and designed with the user in mind. This Cambro DW563 glass rack is a perfect embodiment of that philosophy. It's not just about preventing breakages. It's about creating a seamless system—wash, transport, store—that reduces handling, minimises staff time, and upholds hygiene standards. The long-term value comes from its sheer reliability. You won't be replacing it next year. This is a durable asset that quietly pays for itself by protecting your more fragile ones, allowing your team to focus on service, not on cleaning up shattered glass.
Explore more from CambroWhy Being 'High-Temp Resistant' Actually Matters
Seeing that a rack can withstand temperatures up to 93°C might seem like just another technical detail, but it's crucial for any professional kitchen. Commercial dishwashers use extremely hot water to sanitise glassware properly, meeting food safety standards. A standard domestic plastic would warp, crack, or go brittle under this daily thermal stress, rendering it useless and potentially dangerous.
Think of it like this: it's the difference between a chocolate teapot and a proper ceramic one. One melts under heat, the other is designed for it. This Cambro rack's specialised polypropylene construction ensures it maintains its shape and strength, wash after wash, year after year. This means you can confidently use high-temperature sanitation cycles to ensure your glassware is not just visibly clean, but hygienically safe for every single customer.
Who Should Buy This?
- Busy Pubs & Bars: Protect your pint glasses, wine stems, and tumblers during the fastest, most demanding services.
- Event Hire Companies: Ensure safe and secure transport of large quantities of glassware to and from functions.
- Hotels & Conference Centres: Streamline your entire warewashing process for banquets, meetings, and room service operations.
- Fine Dining Restaurants: Safeguard your investment in premium, expensive stemware and reduce replacement costs significantly.
