Price Match

The APS Asia+ bowl is a melamine serving bowl with a distinctive red and black colour scheme and a dimpled exterior finish. The contrast between the deep red interior and dark exterior gives it a deliberate aesthetic that works well in Asian-themed dining settings, buffet presentations, and styled food displays. It is sold individually, allowing operators to build quantities that match their specific service requirements.

Melamine is a practical choice for busy service environments. It handles the knocks and drops of high-footfall buffet service without chipping or cracking in the way ceramic would, and the 630g weight keeps it manageable when clearing or restacking at pace. The dimpled outer surface provides a more secure grip during service, which is a small but useful detail when staff are moving quickly. It is rated for commercial dishwasher use, so it fits cleanly into standard warewashing routines without special handling.

  • Harder and more impact-resistant than ceramic equivalents
  • Dishwasher-safe for use in commercial warewashing cycles
  • Dimpled exterior improves grip during busy service
  • Consistent colour finish suitable for themed and styled presentations
  • Sold singly, allowing flexible quantity purchasing

There are no gas, electrical, or plumbing considerations with this product. It is worth noting that melamine bowls should not be used in microwave ovens, and they are not suitable for oven or direct heat use. For cold or ambient food presentation, there are no restrictions. Operators running larger buffet lines may want to consider the full Asia+ range for a coordinated look across multiple bowl sizes and serving pieces.

This bowl is well suited to restaurants, hotels, and event caterers serving Asian-inspired menus, as well as any buffet operation looking for durable, visually consistent tableware that can withstand daily commercial use. If you are equipping a full buffet station or want guidance on quantities or complementary pieces, the team is happy to help you work through what you need.

Frequently asked questions

Can these bowls be used in a microwave or oven?

No — melamine is not suitable for microwave or oven use. These bowls are intended for cold or ambient food presentation and standard table service. They should not be exposed to direct heat sources.

Are these bowls suitable for a commercial dishwasher?

Yes, the APS Asia+ range is rated for commercial dishwashing, so they can go through standard warewashing cycles alongside your other tableware. Melamine generally holds up well to repeated high-temperature washing without the colour degrading quickly.

How many bowls should I order for a buffet service?

That depends on your cover count, the pace of your warewashing cycle, and whether you are running a self-serve or staffed buffet line. A common starting point is two to three times your seated cover count to allow for rotation, but if your team is happy to discuss your specific setup we can help you arrive at a more accurate figure.
