Production and logistics
The production process of the Dutch Cups glasses, cups and other products takes place with specially developed moulds and modern injection moulding machines. Production takes place 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 50 weeks a year in a centrally located factory in the Netherlands.
Product development
Dutch Cups regularly develops new products in collaboration with its customers. The entire development process is completed in phases. First, a problem is analysed and ideas are proposed. Then a proposal is presented. The next phase is making sketch and product drawings (2D and 3D), after which a prototype is made. After any necessary corrections, the actual production of a mould can be started. This entire process is completed with a perfect end product within a period of approximately 12 weeks.

Cleaning
The washing centre
The plastic glasses you use can be cleaned in the Dutch Cups Washing Centre in Lelystad. Cleaning is done with modern equipment and according to the strictest requirements in the field of environment and hygiene. The glasses are dried automatically after cleaning, checked manually and neatly returned in your own plastic storage boxes.
These boxes are also machine cleaned, dried and sealed after inspection. After cleaning, your glasses will be delivered to your catering company if desired, or stored in the Dutch Cups warehouse if your event takes place again after some time.
The advantage of outsourcing the rinsing work is that it saves you a lot of work after your event and you are sure that the glasses can be used immediately next time. Ideal for events, entertainment centers, stadiums, theme parks and catering companies. Simple, clean and fast!
Recycling
Good for the environment
At the end of the life cycle, worn or rejected glasses can be taken back by us free of charge via the Dutch Cups Return System. Dutch Cups provides a number of storage boxes free of charge and once full, these are collected free of charge and exchanged for empty boxes. The scrap glass is pulverised and processed into regranulate (= recycled raw material), after which other high-quality plastic products are produced. Examples are trays, crates and light boxes. If you are interested in the Return System, please contact us.
