Govino: The answer to stylish "plastic" picnic glasses


Although not locally made this product is so awesome and environmentally friendly that we can forgive the fact that it is an imported product. 

govino - 100% recyclable, shatterproof and reusable


Weighing a 10th of the weight of traditional glass it is shatterproof and 100% recyclable. Loved by Wine Spectator and Martha Stewart, govino is wines new best friend.
The govino "go anywhere wine glass" allows for enjoyment of fine wine in settings where breakable glass is not allowed or fine stemware is not available.

The stemless, unbreakable "glass" is not made of glass at all, but from a flexible, BPA-free, odourless polymer, which reflects a wine's colour and projects its aromatics much like expensive crystal.

Designed into the glass is an ergonomic thumb notch on the side, giving the user a secure and comfortable grip for swirling and drinking wine. The notch also acts as a stem without a stem, preventing heat transfer into the beverage and potential finger smudging on the crystal-clear surface of the glass.  Govino is made from PET, is shatterproof, reusable and 100% recyclable, and also works for other cold beverages such as cocktails and water.
govino was designed for commercial use and can withstand most industrial glass sanitation systems (1-2 minutes at 65°C).

Since domestic dishwashers are so widely varied, we cannot claim our product is 100% "dishwasher safe."

Reuse it, abuse it, but eventually recycle it! 100% recyclable &  SA’s greenest glassware.

The govino wine glass is meant to be replaced after an extended period of use. Please inspect your govino wine glass before each use.

Our personal favourite is the govino champagne flute. For us the perfect picnic always include a bottle of local bubbly and now one can still enjoy it in style with a govino champagne glass.
