<p>It seems quite normal to drink from a glass, just like it was once normal to drive around without seatbelts.  As a devotee of plastic glasses I now see normal glassware as a lot more fragile than I used to.</p>
<p>We have tiled flooring and use our plastic glasses as much outdoors as we do indoors.  We don&#8217;t have any glassware that isn&#8217;t plastic and I&#8217;ve lost count of the number of times I&#8217;ve knocked a glass to the floor or bashed one in the sink with a mug.  Considering how drinking glasses are normally used, they are not a very good product.</p>
<p>Most of our customers first buy plastic glasses from us because they don&#8217;t want to lose the pleasure of drinking just because they are drinking from a beaker, but a they have a need for unbreakable glassware &#8211; such as on a boat, around a pool or for elderly relatives.</p>
<p>However, after using plastic glasses, real glassware suddenly seems so fragile and so dangerous.  When you see children running around with a plastic glass in their hand, it&#8217;s only the contents you need to worry about but, as soon as they move anywhere with a glass glass, you see a dozens of scenarios for disaster flash up in your mind.</p>
<p>One day, people will not want to use glasses made from glass if there is a better alternative.  Now you can replace your glassware with heavy, fine, and pleasant to use plastic glassware that leaves no taste of plastic when you drink form it.</p>
<p>Order your dishwasher safe <a title="Plastic Glasses" href="http://www.poshplastics.co.uk">Posh Plastic</a> glasses online today.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s likely that you would use glass to serve your drinks if it were possible, but safety concerns or regulation dictate that you need to use plastic glasses.  Whether you need plastic glasses for the beach, in the house or in a night-club, then the decisions you are about to make will have a lasting impact, for better or worse.</p>
<p>Plastic is a very different product to glass.  You cannot compare the raw materials, productions process or the costs involved with a glass equivalent; just as you cannot compare glass and plastic when it comes to withstanding hammer blows.  The two products are only common in that they share the same utility.</p>
<p>Good quality polycarbonate plastic glasses will last much longer than glass.  A night club may see the initial investment as expensive, but they will spend far less over the first year than they would on replacing glassware.  Polycarbonate is tough and it will last you a long time.  A night club can get 3-5 years use out of a plastic glass, so the initial investment is tiny in comparison to the cost of replacing cheap glassware.</p>
<p>Because of the long-life capacity of plastic glasses, think very carefully about the quality of the plastic glasses you want to purchase.  One way or another, your plastic glasses will be a talking point and will affect the future of your business or the impression on your party guests.  Will your guests be chattering about the light-weight appalling plastic glasses or will they be literally amazed that the glass they are drinking from is in fact plastic and not glass, as they had imagined whilst using it?</p>
<p>Show your class with your plastic glass and leave a long-lasting impression on your guests.  A little extra goes a long way over the years.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are planning to entertain al fresco this summer, you&#8217;ll be thinking of all sorts of wonderful things like food, music, guests and the weather.  You was really impressed by the food your neighbours made for last weeks party, so you want something amazing.</p>
<p>The one area that you can make a huge impact is with your plastic glasses.  With high quality plastic glasses from <a href="http://www.poshplastics.co.uk" target="_blank">Posh Plastics</a>, you get more than a nice drinking glass.  Our glasses are so amazing that your guests will never be short of a conversation-starter.  For anyone that has feigned comfort when presented with a lightweight, scratched plastic glass with rough edges, they are in for a treat.  Often, people don&#8217;t even realise they are not drinking from regular glassware.</p>
<p>If your party needs a lift once the kebabs and sangria have long since gone, then just tell your guests that their glasses are virtually unbreakable.  We do not recommend testing this, as your glasses will scratch, but you will be surprised at the impacts our glassware can withstand.  If you want to save your own glasses, see Richard Hammond trying to break our plastic glasses with a <a href="http://www.poshplastics.co.uk/unbreakable.html" target="_blank">sledge hammer</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m sure you have booked a flight that appeared to be £50, for example, only to finally pay the airline something closer to £80 or £100.  Let me assure you that our business model is based on simplicity and transparency.  The prices we display include VAT and, that price includes delivery, if it is greater than £125.  Otherwise the delivery charge is just £5, regardless of the size of your order.</p>
<p>We have similar thresholds for deliveries to Europe, and outside of Europe.  We have factored in the costs of accepting payments online, marketing, packaging and customer services.  So if you order 1 box of glasses for £24, the total you pay at the checkout is £29, including  the postage fee.  If you order glasses totalling £150, you pay £150, and that includes delivery.  Not one penny is added to your basket.</p>
<p>When you order from <a href="http://www.poshplastics.co.uk" target="_blank">Posh Plastics</a>,  you can be sure that it is easy for you to work out the true cost of your online order &#8211; what you see is what you pay.</p>
<p>We have excellent products and a our customer service aims to exceed expectations.  We do not need to trick our customers into handing over more money &#8211; once you&#8217;ve used our glasses, you&#8217;ll likely be back order more soon or recommending us to your friends.</p>

Most of our sales are for delivery to Spain or the UK, as this is where we have offices.  However, France doesn&#8217;t seem to have any companies dealing with high quality plastic glasses, as we are seeing increasing amounts of orders for France.<br />
It may seem strange ordering from a UK company if you are based in France but at <a href="http://www.poshplastics.co.uk">Posh Plastics</a> we have been working hard to source fast, economical and reliable courier services for orders being delivered to France.  For just £14.50 (or free if you order £250), we&#8217;ll delivery your unbreakable plastic glasses to your door.  We are confident that no other company can offer a service to match ours.<br />
Even if there was a shop somewhere close to you, you would struggle to drive and park there for £14.50.<br />
Order your plastic glasses from the best and spend the next few years enjoying using our amazing plastic glasses.  Instead of annually replacing your plastic glassware, you can use ours for years.</p>
