Product Information: Necessity is indeed the mother of invention. The govino shatterproof wineglass was originally created as a trade tool to help professional salespeople showcase their wines whenever and wherever proper stemware isn't accessible – which as we learned firsthand, is often! Once we began testing the market, we realized there was an even bigger need for govino in the consumer sector, particularly at settings where breakable glass is an issue. After all, how many times have we all had to endure drinking good wine from bad glasses?
The govino wineglass is made from a proprietary, food/pharmaceutical safe PETG, only it is superior in that it reflects the wine's color and aromatics much like crystal. It is recyclable (#1) but better yet it is reusable. It has been designed to withstand the standard hotel and restaurant bar automatic washer sanitation cycle (1 minute @ 106 degrees F).* We have govino wineglasses on hand that have gone through numerous washing cycles at some of the country’s top restaurants and hotels. These glasses still have clarity and no residual detergent odors!
*govino is not recommended for the bottom rack or heated drying cycle of a domestic dishwasher
Reuse it, abuse it, but eventually recycle it!
The govino wineglass is meant to be replaced after an extended period of use. Please inspect your govino wineglass before each use. Your wine deserves it!.
