Arcoroc, an Arc Cardinal brand, is reinventing barware in the hospitality industry with over 80-plus new barware items being introduced this month. Raising the bar first and foremost in American-Made Barware with 40-plus new SKUs—Triborough, Urbane, Skyscraper and Facets collections—designed and produced in the USA, competitively priced and rim-tempered for everyday bartender demands.

These American-Made collections compliment Arcoroc’s entire new 2017 barware portfolio of stylish glasses, bar tools and unique fully tempered barware designs. “We’re really proud of what our team has accomplished at our USA site,” says Fred Dohn, CEO North America. “Last year, we announced that we had become the only North American producer of lead-free crystal. This year, we’re adding a larger variety of barware to our portfolio showing the world that we can make the best products in the world right here in the U.S. in our own facility—one of the cleanest glassware manufacturing facilities in the world. These new collections are just the start to our mission of reinventing barware with new designs, stronger attributes and made-in-the USA.”

Produced on state-of-the-art modern forming lines in Millville, NJ, Arc Cardinal’s new products are extra tough. New ArmoRIM technology strengthens glass rims to reduce chipping adding up to 5X more resistance at the rim than annealed glass.

“The stackability of Triborough and Urbane keeps the shelves full and solves for ill-equipped or lack of space for supply of glasses at the bar,” says Elliot Mizuki, Bartender at Polite Provisions in San Diego. The new stackable Arcoroc Barware collections include shot, rocks, double old-fashioned, hi-ball, beverage and cooler glass styles. All collections feature heavy bottoms for fast mixing of cocktails. Individual collection features include:

Subtle paneled designs in Triborough glasses refract light and provide excellent grip. 13 SKUs

Skyscraper is sleek and ready for its social media close-up, with clean lines and a gently tapered base. 12 SKUs

Urbane has a simple inner horizontal ledge made for stacking and space saving and features heavy base stability with sleek clean lines.  8 SKUs

Facets brings a diamond cut glass style that combines a modern and classical look. 10 SKUs

“Our new barware collection significantly extends our support for bartenders across all segments of the industry. Those collections have been designed by bartenders for high volume restaurants with the objective of improving their efficiency and the guest experience,” says Alexandre Bollengier, Arc Cardinal COO. “And that’s what Arc Cardinal and our brands are all about.”
