France in 1945 was in the midst of reconstruction. Christian Dior shortened skirts and created the New Look, while Saint-Gobain created "tempered glass", an entirely new process that made glass unbreakable. To support this discovery, which marked a new era in the history of tableware, he created the DURALEX brand.
DURALEX is a "tough cookie": its tumblers wobble on every canteen cart in France, but never break. DURALEX is flexible: it will fit into every household, its products stack up, its ranges follow one another, its decorations follow fashion, its prices are accessible.
WHAT IS TEMPERED GLASS?
What makes Duralex glass so resistant is the tempering process. This consists in cooling the entire glass product by ventilation, after it has been heated to a temperature of around 700°C. This treatment creates controlled stresses in the glass that enhance most of its physical qualities: resistance to mechanical stress and thermal shock (sudden temperature change). This makes Duralex glass at least 2.5 times more resistant to mechanical stress than annealed glass. It can withstand a thermal shock of at least 130°C.

Information
-
The Manhattan is designed to last as long as its namesake, the drink served in New York bars since the late 19th century. The grooves provide a comfortable grip for your fingers even if cold contents create slippery condensation on the outside of the glass.
The glass is designed, like other Duralex glasses, to withstand freezer chilling as well as sterilization in hot machines (though not in the immediate vicinity).
Capacity 31 cl.
