Churchill Whiteware Nova Plates 202mm (Pack of 24)

The Churchill Nova plate is a straightforward, well-made piece of commercial porcelain from Churchill's established Whiteware range. At 202mm it sits comfortably in the side plate category — suitable for bread, salad, desserts, or as a starter plate depending on how you're running your covers. The clean, undecorated white finish works across a wide range of table settings without dating.

Churchill produce these plates to a high-temperature, two-day firing process that results in a super vitrified body — denser and more resistant to chipping than standard catering porcelain. In busy service environments where plates are stacked, run through commercial dishwashers repeatedly, and handled at pace, that construction makes a practical difference to how long a set remains presentable. The edge and rim chip resistance backs this with a five-year warranty, which is a useful indicator of how these are expected to perform.

A few features worth noting from an operational standpoint:

• Glazed foot reduces scratching and metal marking when plates are stacked or slid across surfaces
• Hygienic base finish — less porous than an unglazed foot, easier to keep clean
• Consistent white finish throughout the Nova range supports easy mixing of plate sizes
• Dishwasher safe for high-frequency commercial wash cycles

These plates are sold in packs of 24, which is a practical quantity for most table-service operations. For smaller venues or supplementing an existing set, the pack size is worth factoring into your order. If you're setting up a larger operation or need multiple sizes to complete a cover, the Nova range runs across several diameters, so consistency across the table is straightforward to achieve.

Well suited to restaurants, hotels, contract caterers, and event operations needing reliable, chip-resistant tableware with a clean, classic appearance. If you're unsure which sizes make sense for your menu format, the team is happy to talk it through.
