  • Top Feature: The Safedge® rim guarantee is a huge operational plus for busy venues.
  • Heads Up: Remember these aren't CE stamped, so they're for spirits, not draft.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Orchard Inn in Bath recently revamped their cocktail menu and  wanted glassware that matched their new, premium offering. Their old glasses were a mix of styles and  prone to chipping, which looked unprofessional and  was costing them money.

"We were tired of constantly throwing away chipped glasses. We switched to the Libbey Perception tumblers for their stylish look and  the brilliant chip guarantee. They feel solid, look fantastic, and  our staff handle them with more confidence."

Robert Green – Bar Manager

The switch resulted in a 70% reduction in glassware breakage and  replacement orders in the first quarter alone.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Always run a full wash cycle in your glasswasher before the first use to remove any dust or residue.
  • To prevent thermal shock, avoid pouring ice-cold liquids into a glass straight from a hot wash cycle.
  • Never stack glasses directly inside one another, as this creates pressure points and  can lead to cracking.
  • Inspect each glass upon unboxing to ensure they have arrived in perfect condition.

Keeping It Going

  • Use a purpose-built glass rack in your dishwasher to prevent glasses from knocking against each other.
  • Polish with a clean, lint-free microfibre cloth to remove any water spots for a crystal-clear finish.
  • Regularly check the rims for any damage and  immediately remove any compromised glass from service.
  • Avoid using glasses to scoop ice – always use a dedicated ice scoop to prevent chips and  cracks.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Glassware

Not sure which glass best fits your establishment's vibe? Here are a few key things to consider when choosing your next set of commercial old fashioned glassware.

Look for Durability

Your glassware will be washed hundreds of times. A feature like Libbey's Safedge® rim guarantee is a sign of commercial quality and  saves you money on replacements.

Match Capacity to Serves

Ensure the glass size is right for your drinks menu. A 350ml capacity is wonderfully versatile for cocktails, doubles with mixers, or large soft drinks.

Consider Your Storage

While great for saving space, stacking can damage glassware. These tumblers are best stored side-by-side on shelves or in a glass rack for safety.

Let Aesthetics Reflect Your Brand

The glass is a key part of the customer experience. A clean, elegant design like this complements both modern and  traditional decor beautifully.

Understand CE Marking

Remember that non-CE marked glasses are for unprescribed measures. They are perfect for spirits and  cocktails, but not for selling wine or beer by the glass.

What Libbey's Safedge® Rim Guarantee Really Means for Your Business

You've seen the 'lifetime chip guarantee', but what does it actually cover? This isn't a promise that the glass will never break if dropped – it’s something far more practical for a busy bar. It's a guarantee specifically against the tiny nicks and  chips that happen to the rim of a glass during everyday use like washing, storage, and  service. These small imperfections are what make glassware look tired and, more importantly, can be a safety hazard.

Think of it like the reinforced corners on a high-quality suitcase. While the whole case is strong, the corners are built to take the most knocks from baggage handlers. Libbey's Safedge® rim is thermally treated to be incredibly resistant to chipping, ensuring your glasses maintain a perfectly smooth, safe edge for years. It's a small detail that protects your investment, ensures guest safety, and  keeps your service looking sharp.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Pubs & Bars: An ideal and  durable choice for serving premium whiskies, bourbons, and  classic cocktails.
  • Hotels & Restaurants: A stylish, robust option for serving table water, soft drinks, or for in-room beverage trays.
  • Cocktail Lounges: The perfect vessel for showcasing craft cocktails that use large ice spheres or intricate garnishes.
  • Event Caterers: A reliable and  elegant glassware workhorse that withstands frequent transport and  washing cycles with ease.
