Named after the Picardie province in northern France which is rich in history and is the heartland of French gothic architecture, these tumbler glasses are attractive and authentic French glasses. Bring a little bit of France to your establishment with these Duralex Picardie glass tumblers. Manufactured with shock resistant thermal glass, these glasses are freezer, microwave and dishwasher safe.
During the manufacturing process, the glass is heated to around 700ºC before it is suddenly cooled by cold air ventilation.
The process not only gives the finished product a perfect transparency and lasting clarity, it makes it practically unbreakable as well. Duralex glassware is at least 2.5 times more shock and chip resistant than ordinary glassware, making it perfect for everyday use. The tempering process also improves the glassware's thermal properties. Duralex products can withstand thermal shock of 130oC, while ordinary glass breaks from thermal shock at about 40oC.
Once described as 'the ultimate drinking vessel created by man', these famous Duralex glasses are just as popular now as when they were first manufactured.
Steeped in history and with a retro vibe the Duralex glasses create a nostalgia feel reminiscing of old school days. Suitable for hot and cold drinks and extremely tough, the iconic Duralex glasses are great for schools, cafes, pubs, bars & restaurants.
