Churchill Opal White Platters 220x130mm (Pack of 12)
£147.00(£176.40 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Churchill Opal platter is a compact oblong serving piece finished in white, designed to complement a wide range of plating styles from casual bistro dishes to more composed restaurant presentations. At 220x130mm it sits comfortably as an individual starter or sharing plate, and the clean, gently organic profile suits both modern and traditional table settings without drawing attention to itself.
Churchill's Super Vitrified body means the ceramic does not absorb moisture during service, which matters in a busy kitchen where plates cycle through the dishwasher repeatedly across a long shift. The material also resists thermal shock, so moving platters between a hot pass and a cooler dining room is unlikely to cause the cracking that can affect lower-quality ware. The Eco Glaze surface helps resist staining and metal marks, which keeps the white finish looking presentable through extended use.
- Dishwasher safe — handles the repeated high-temperature cycles of commercial glasswashers and dishwashers
- Microwave safe — useful for reheating individual portions at the pass
- Non-porous body — reduces moisture absorption and maintains hygiene standards
- Resistant to staining and metal marks from cutlery contact
- Backed by Churchill's 5-year edge-chip guarantee
This platter is well suited to restaurants, hotels, cafés, and contract catering operations looking for dependable everyday tableware that holds up under continuous service. The pack of 12 makes it straightforward to build sufficient cover counts without overcommitting budget. For operations running very high covers or particularly rough handling environments, heavier-gauge alternatives within the Churchill range may be worth considering.
If you are building out a full table setting or matching across a range, our team are happy to advise on quantities, complementary pieces, and what holds up best in different types of operation.
Frequently asked questions
How does this platter hold up in a high-volume dishwasher environment?
Churchill's Super Vitrified body and Eco Glaze finish are specifically developed for the repeated high-temperature cycles found in commercial dishwashers and glasswashers. The non-porous construction resists moisture ingress, and the surface coating helps prevent the dulling and staining that can affect standard ceramic ware over time.
Is a pack of 12 sufficient for a typical restaurant service?
That depends on your covers, menu format, and how quickly platters cycle back through the wash. For a small café or a restaurant using these as a starter plate, 12 is a reasonable starting point, but most operators running 40 or more covers will want two or three packs to maintain a comfortable buffer during peak service.
Are these platters suitable for use under heat lamps or on a heated pass?
The thermal shock resistance of the Super Vitrified body makes these platters well suited to environments where temperature varies — moving from a heated pass to a cooler dining room, for instance. If you plan to hold them directly under high-intensity heat lamps for extended periods, it is worth confirming suitability with our team, as prolonged direct radiant heat differs from normal pass conditions.
