How durable is 'dishwasher-safe'?

We're proud to call products made with Eastman Tritan™ copolyester "dishwasher safe" - meaning products can be placed on top and bottom racks of a dishwasher. Laboratory and manufacturing testing compared products made with Tritan to products made with polycarbonate (PC), under repeated dishwasher cycles, using a leading powdered detergent. The results:

Polycarbonate glass showing cracks and crazes.


  • Products made with Tritan™  have no evidence of cracking or crazing.
  • PC parts can crack or craze easily unless specially processed to reduce this tendency.
