Frequently Asked Questions

Swish Plastic’s drinkware is made from tritan plastic which is significantly stronger than acrylic plastic. Whereas acrylic glasses are known to break and shatter easily, their tritan counterparts will easily outlast them. Tritan is equivalent in strength to polycarbonate but is ultra-dishwasher durable and does not contain the chemical component BPA which is present in polycarbonate.

This video illustrates just how strong polycarbonate is compared to acrylic plastic:

Yes, Tritan glasses can withstand a harsh combination of heat, hydrolytic and chemical attack that is typical for commercial and residential dishwashers and are top-rack dishwasher safe.

Swish Plastic tritan glasses are recyclable. Its copolyester is less dense than materials such as polycarbonate meaning less material is used to make the same products. Since they are virtually unbreakable they don’t have to be replaced as often, which also contributes to a better environment.

Yes, tritan is free of bisphenol-A (BPA).

Our plastic drinkware is virtually unbreakable. It has a longer life span than real glass which dramatically reduces re-order frequency.

The glasses are highly scratch resistant and have proven more scratch resistant than polycarbonate glasses in several performance tests. However, just like traditional glasses, they will scratch over time through general wear and tear. If you drop the glasses against a hard or abrasive surface, or hit them against different surfaces, they may scratch.

For best results wash the glasses in warm soapy water in a dishwasher (top rack only). Avoid contact with abrasive brushes when washing the glasses, as this may lead to scratches on the surface of the glass.
