Melamine and Infinium
April 2022
From patios to poolside
Your guests love spending time drinking and dining al fresco – but the great outdoors aren’t always so great for the lifespan of your tableware.
If breakage is a top concern, glass and other materials (like porcelain) might not be the right fit for your outdoor or high-traffic space. That’s why we’ve developed alternatives that make durability a priority and offer guests the high-end experience they expect, too.
Our outdoor-ready drinkware and dinnerware look good and perform even better, made of break-resistant, shatterproof copolyester and melamine with finishes that mimic indoor counterparts like natural wood or crystal-clear glass.
Libbey® may have made its name in glassware, but our goal is always to give you products that set you up for success, no matter the material. This year, give your outdoor space an upgrade with these beautiful, durable Libbey products:
Infinium
On first glance, you’d never know that Infinium premium plastic drinkware is, well, plastic. But with stunning clarity even after hundreds of dishwasher cycles, Infinium shines with glass-like beauty.
Made of 100% BPA-free Tritan copolyester, Infinium drinkware is nearly unbreakable, with a lighter weight that’s easier to carry for staff and guests. Infinium also resists cracking and odors and can withstand both extreme hot and cold temperatures.
And with dozens of shapes to choose from – including stemware, barware and everyday tumblers – you’ll be able to fully stock your bar or restaurant.
Infinium DX
New Infinium DX boosts the durability and performance of Infinium premium plastic drinkware with added resistance to damaging citrus juices and sunscreens commonly found at pools, patios and resorts.
Developed especially for outdoor environments like cruise ships, resorts and theme parks where durability is essential, Infinium DX was designed to combat the top two stressors common to these settings.
Melamine
Serve up confidence with durable, lightweight melamine, always a versatile choice for high-traffic and outdoor environments.
Available in a rainbow of colors and faux finishes, our melamine dinnerware and serveware offers the look of porcelain, marble, wood and other materials, giving entrees and appetizers an elevated look and feel without risk of breakage.
Melamine is an easy-to-clean option, dishwasher safe and resistant to the elements. And with several patterns also made in porcelain, it’s easy to coordinate your indoor and outdoor service.
