How are BarLuxe glasses different than other plastic drinkware made from polycarbonate or acrylic?
BarLuxe drinkware is made from new Eastman Tritan, a new co-polymer that is ultra-dishwasher durable so unlike drinkware made from polycarbonate or acrylic, they won’t crack or craze even after hundreds of dishwashing cycles.

Eastman tested products made with Tritan in dozens of commercial and residential dishwashers. Samples of Tritan and other materials were subjected to multiple washings simulating overloaded dishwashers. Results demonstrated that Tritan’s unique balance of properties allows molded items to withstand hundreds of cycles in commercial and consumer dishwashers with no visible crazing or cracking, a vast improvement over polycarbonate.
