Revol Basalt Rectangular Plates 300 x 160mm (Pack of 6)

Revol's Basalt range offers a slate-effect presentation plate made entirely from culinary-grade porcelain paste. The aesthetic closely references natural slate — the dark tone, the textured surface finish, the angular rectangular form — but without the practical drawbacks that come with genuine stone. Natural slate chips, scratches, and absorbs fats and bacteria over time. These plates do not. The porcelain construction keeps the surface non-porous and food-safe regardless of how many covers they go through.

In service, that durability matters. Plates that look like slate but behave like quality porcelain hold up well under the repeated handling, stacking, and mechanical dishwashing that is normal in a busy kitchen. The finish does not degrade with regular commercial use, and the surface remains hygienic without requiring the sealing or special treatment that natural stone demands.

For front-of-house, the Basalt plate works across a broad range of dishes. The rectangular format suits sharing plates, starter portions, and structured plating styles where a more formal round plate would feel at odds with the presentation. The dark basalt tone provides strong contrast against lighter sauces, garnishes, and ingredients, which is a practical consideration when visual presentation is part of the offer.

• Non-porous surface — will not absorb fats, odours, or bacteria
• Resistant to chipping and scratching under normal service conditions
• Compatible with Revol's broader range of porcelain containers and vessels
• Suitable for mechanical dishwashing in commercial environments
• Consistent slate-effect aesthetic without the maintenance of natural stone

These plates are sold in packs of six, which suits trial use or supplementing an existing Basalt cover set. For operations building out a full cover count from scratch, it is worth considering quantities carefully against expected service volume and dishwash turnaround time before ordering.

If you are unsure how the Basalt range fits alongside your existing tableware or want to discuss quantities for a new opening, the team is happy to help you work through it.
