When it comes to sourcing china, glass and silver, it’s safe to say that the tables have turned.

Procurement priorities hit differently in 2021. Outdoor dining has become a focal point, where it once was an afterthought.

Our clients are carefully curating their wares, coming to Singer’s team of tabletop consultants for fresh ideas and patio-perfect products.

The idea of making the switch to plastic drinkware might make some operators cringe. We, too, love the look and feel of glass. That’s why we’ve partnered with Drinique. They manufacture Tritan copolyester drinkware that looks just like glass but will withstand a summer’s worth of outdoor dining, and then some!

Unlike most shatter-resistant products on the market, Drinique’s products are made in the USA and are 100% BPA-free, so you can feel extra good about the safety of your beverage service.

Cut down on long term operating costs by making the switch for your outdoor service today. According to G.E.T. Melamine, plastic drinkware is replaced at a rate of 10-20% annually, compared to a whopping 50-100% replacement rate in glassware.

Our manufacturer partners have made strong strides in shatter-resistant tableware design. We’re excited about Cal-Mil’s new Hudson line; a collection of stackable, high-walled melamine bowls and plates in a refreshing array of matte pastels and muted tones.

Pompeii by Steelite is a true trendsetter in melamine design; we’re seeing some of the most stylish operators nationwide adapting this collection to their rooftop and poolside service. Now available in both slate and stone colorways, Its popularity is sure to grow.
