  • Practical Durability: The melamine build is genuinely tough, surviving drops and  daily knocks with ease.
  • Functional Aesthetics: While very practical, its basic design won't suit premium, style-led venues.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Salty Dog pub in Whitby, North Yorkshire, constantly battled with their seaside terrace tables. The coastal winds would whip ash from standard trays, creating a continuous cleaning job for staff and  a poor impression for diners. They needed a weather resistant ashtray that could cope.

"It was a constant headache. Our team spent half their shift sweeping up after customers. We switched to these Olympia ashtrays and  the problem vanished instantly. They stay put, they keep the ash in, and  they look smart. It's one less thing to worry about."

Robert Green – General Manager

The switch significantly reduced outdoor cleaning tasks, freeing up staff time equivalent to an estimated 30 minutes per shift.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • No assembly needed! Simply unbox the ashtrays and  they are ready for use.
  • Place them on any stable, flat surface like a patio table or ledge.
  • Ensure they are distributed conveniently for customers in your designated smoking areas.

Keeping It Going

  • Empty regularly by lifting the top lid off the base and  disposing of the contents.
  • Wipe clean with a damp cloth and  a mild, non-abrasive cleaning agent.
  • For a thorough clean, the durable melamine material is safe to put in a commercial dishwasher.
  • Periodically check them over, but rest assured, they're built to withstand daily wear and  tear.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Outdoor Ashtray

Not sure what fits your needs best? Here are a few pointers to help you choose the right ashtray for your business.

Assess Your Location

Is your outdoor area exposed and  windy? A dedicated windproof design like the Olympia CD751 is non-negotiable to prevent mess.

Material Matters

For outdoor use in the UK, durability is key. Melamine and  stainless steel are excellent choices as they resist breakage, rust, and  stains from the elements.

Consider the Capacity

A busy beer garden will fill ashtrays faster than a quiet café corner. Factor in footfall to decide how many you need and  how often they'll need emptying.

Prioritise Easy Cleaning

Look for models with smooth, simple designs. The easier an ashtray is for your staff to empty and  clean, the more likely it is to be done properly.

Match Your Aesthetic

Does the ashtray need to blend with your furniture? A neutral colour like black is a safe and  professional bet for almost any setting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this ashtray completely unbreakable?

A: It's described as 'virtually unbreakable'. The tough melamine material is incredibly resilient and  designed to withstand the drops and  knocks of a busy commercial environment without shattering.

Q: How does the windproof feature actually work?

A: It uses a two-part design. The lid has a small opening that allows ash to fall into the base but shields the contents from gusts of wind, preventing it from being blown out.

Q: Can the melamine withstand heat from cigarettes?

A: Absolutely. Melamine is engineered to be heat-resistant, so it can handle extinguished cigarettes without being damaged, burned, or warped.

Q: Can I use this indoors?

A: While designed for outdoor use, its excellent odour-trapping properties make it a suitable choice for any designated indoor smoking rooms or areas.

Q: Is it heavy enough not to get blown off a table?

A: Yes, weighing 0.91kg, it has enough heft to remain stable on a table, even during gusty conditions.

Q: How many ashtrays are in one box?

A: The Olympia CD751 ashtray is supplied in a convenient box of 6 units.

Q: Is it safe to clean in a dishwasher?

A: Yes, the high-quality melamine is perfectly safe for cleaning in a commercial dishwasher, which is great for ensuring proper hygiene.

Q: Will the black colour fade over time in the sun?

A: The material is UV resistant, which helps it to maintain its deep black colour and  professional finish even when used outdoors for long periods.

How a Simple Lid Keeps Your Terrace Tidy

Ever wondered how this windproof outdoor ashtray actually stops the mess? It’s all down to a clever but simple two-part construction. The lid features a small central hole, sitting above a deep, protected base. When ash and  cigarette ends are dropped through the hole, they fall into the chamber below, shielded from the elements. Think of it like a secure postbox for ash – once it's posted through the slot, the wind simply can't get inside to blow it back out. This basic mechanical barrier is what makes this patio cigarette ashtray so effective at keeping your outdoor areas spotless, even on a blustery day.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Pubs & Bars: An absolute essential for beer gardens and  smoking shelters to keep tables clean.
  • Cafés & Bistros: Perfect for pavement seating, ensuring a pleasant, tidy experience for all your guests.
  • Hotels & Venues: A must-have for designated outdoor smoking zones and  terrace bars to maintain a smart appearance.
  • Restaurants: Keep your alfresco dining spaces looking immaculate and  free from wind-blown debris.
