Cutlery Holders

The Olympia Kristallon large cutlery tray is a polypropylene tray sized to the GN 1/1 footprint, designed to organise and present loose cutlery at service points, counters, or in preparation areas. It features four open compartments, allowing knives, forks, spoons, and a fourth item type to be separated and kept accessible during service.

In a working kitchen or front-of-house environment, the GN 1/1 sizing is a practical advantage. It drops neatly into standard gastronorm frames, trolleys, or counter cutouts, meaning it can be integrated into existing service infrastructure without modification. The stackable design allows trays to be nested when not in use or when transporting cutlery from the wash area to the counter, which keeps storage tidy and reduces handling steps during setup.

• Four compartments keep cutlery sorted and accessible throughout service
• GN 1/1 format fits standard gastronorm frames and trolleys
• Stackable design simplifies storage and back-of-house transport
• Smooth polypropylene construction wipes down quickly between covers
• Lightweight build reduces fatigue during frequent repositioning

Being polypropylene, the tray is straightforward to clean — it can be wiped down at the counter or put through a dishwasher, which suits operations where cutlery stations are refreshed between sittings. The material is robust enough for daily commercial use without being heavy to handle.

This tray is well suited to restaurants, cafés, canteens, and hotels where cutlery is displayed or distributed at a self-service or staffed counter. For sites with very high throughput or where multiple stations run simultaneously, it is worth considering whether a larger quantity of trays in rotation would better suit the operation than a single unit.

If you are unsure how many trays your service setup needs or how they will fit into your existing counter arrangement, our team is happy to talk it through.

The Olympia Square Cutlery Basket is a simple, practical plastic basket designed to hold cutlery upright after washing, allowing it to drain and air-dry before service. It is a straightforward piece of tabletop smallware commonly used in commercial kitchens, cafés, and front-of-house areas where cutlery is washed and sorted in volume on a daily basis.

In a working kitchen environment, keeping post-wash cutlery organised and draining properly reduces handling time and helps maintain hygiene standards. A basket like this sits neatly on a draining rack or counter, keeping forks, knives, and spoons separated and upright so air can circulate and water drains away cleanly rather than pooling at the bottom of a tray.

• Keeps washed cutlery upright and separated for effective draining
• Lightweight plastic construction — easy to move, rinse, and stack
• Square profile makes efficient use of limited counter or rack space
• Suitable for use in pass areas, wash stations, and front-of-house setups

At 60g, the basket is light enough to handle easily during a busy turnaround. Its compact footprint means several can be used together to sort cutlery by type without taking up excessive space on a prep bench or draining area.

This basket is well suited to smaller operations — cafés, staff canteens, and small restaurants — where cutlery volumes are modest. Larger or higher-volume sites processing significant covers per service may find it more practical to use larger-capacity or multi-compartment alternatives. It is also worth considering how many baskets are needed in rotation to keep up with wash cycles during peak periods.

If you are unsure how many baskets your operation needs or whether a different size would work better for your setup, we are happy to help you work that out.

The Olympia Kelso combo deal brings together a 240-piece cutlery set and a matching plastic dispenser tray in a single purchase. The set comprises 60 table knives, 60 table forks, 60 dessert spoons, and 60 teaspoons, all produced in 18/0 stainless steel. The 18/0 grade indicates the steel contains no nickel, which gives it a slightly less lustrous finish than higher-grade cutlery but makes it well suited to high-turnover environments where replacement cost matters as much as appearance.

In a busy canteen, café, or casual dining setting, a set of this size can comfortably cover a single service seating without running short, though operations running multiple seatings back-to-back will likely need additional stock to allow for turnaround and washing time. The included cutlery tray keeps flatware organised at a service point or counter, helping front-of-house staff maintain a tidy, accessible setup during a busy lunch or dinner period.

Key practical points for this set:

• 18/0 stainless steel construction — durable and cost-effective for high-turnover use
• Balanced mix of 60 pieces per type suits standard cover configurations
• Plastic dispenser tray included — no separate purchase required
• Suitable for commercial dishwasher use in typical catering environments
• Compact enough for counter, servery, or front-of-house display

It is worth noting that 18/0 cutlery can be more prone to surface marking over time compared to 18/10 grades, and it may not be the most appropriate choice for fine dining or establishments where presentation is a priority. For those operations, a higher-grade option would be worth considering.

This set is most suited to staff canteens, café counters, fast-casual restaurants, and similar settings where practicality and cost-efficiency take precedence. If you are fitting out a larger operation or need to assess the right quantity for your covers and service pattern, the team is happy to help you work that out before you order.

This APS cutlery dispenser is a straightforward, practical piece of service equipment designed for self-service and buffet-style operations. Made from plastic, it features six individual compartments that keep knives, forks, spoons and serving utensils sorted and accessible at the point of service. The design is stackable, which means multiple units can be combined vertically where a wider cutlery range needs to be presented, or stored compactly when not in use.

In a working service environment, the value of a well-organised cutlery station is easy to underestimate until it goes wrong. This dispenser keeps cutlery upright and separated, allowing customers or staff to retrieve what they need cleanly without disturbing other items. It suits canteen lines, staff restaurants, buffet counters, and any setting where cutlery is laid out for self-service rather than table service.

• Six compartments keep cutlery sorted and easy to access during service
• Stackable design allows units to be combined for wider cutlery ranges
• Dishwasher safe, making end-of-service cleaning straightforward
• Lightweight construction at 640g keeps it easy to move and reposition
• Compact footprint works well on buffet counters and service stations

At this level of product, there is not a great deal of complexity to consider — but it is worth confirming the number of compartments suits your cutlery range, and that the footprint works within your service counter layout. For higher-volume operations requiring a larger capacity or a more substantial unit, alternatives are available within the range.

If you are fitting out a new service counter or refreshing an existing setup, feel free to get in touch — sometimes a quick conversation helps ensure you order the right quantity and configuration first time.

The Pujadas Cutlery Tray is a straightforward, well-made tray designed to keep knives, forks and spoons separated and easy for guests to pick up at self-service points. It forms part of the wider Pujadas Cubic Buffet Display range, meaning it sits neatly alongside matching serving dishes, risers and display accessories from the same collection.

In practice, this sort of tray earns its place at breakfast stations, buffet counters, carvery setups and hospitality events where organised, tidy cutlery presentation makes a real difference to service flow. Guests can locate what they need without rummaging, which keeps the queue moving and reduces handling of the wrong items.

• Separates cutlery types to prevent mix-up and tangling
• Sits neatly on buffet counters without taking up excessive surface space
• Coordinates with the Pujadas Cubic Buffet Display range for consistent presentation
• Easy to lift and refill during service without disturbing the display layout
• Straightforward to clean between service periods

It is a simple piece of kit, but one that gets used constantly in the right setting. There are no installation requirements — it sits on any flat surface and needs nothing more than a wipe-down between uses.

If you are setting up a full buffet display or breakfast station and want to check which combination of Pujadas pieces works best together, the team is happy to help you put the right selection together.

The Classeq small cutlery holder is a simple plastic insert designed to sit within open warewasher baskets, keeping loose cutlery contained and upright during the wash cycle. Without a dedicated holder, cutlery tends to lie flat or fall through basket gaps, leading to inconsistent wash results and handling issues at the unloading stage.

In a busy kitchen pass or pot wash area, small details like this have a practical effect on throughput. Cutlery that is loaded correctly through the machine comes out cleaner and requires less re-washing or hand polishing, which adds up across a full service. The holder clips in and out of compatible open baskets without tools, so it can be added or removed depending on what is being washed.

• Keeps cutlery upright and separated for more consistent wash coverage
• Reduces handling time at the unloading and sorting stage
• Lightweight plastic construction — easy to clean and handle
• Fits and removes without tools, adapting to the basket as needed

This holder is sized for smaller cutlery items and is best suited to operations already using compatible Classeq open baskets. It is worth confirming basket compatibility before ordering, particularly if your warewasher setup uses a mix of basket types from different suppliers.

If you are unsure whether this fits your existing basket configuration, the team is happy to help you check before you order.

This Olympia cutlery holder is a straightforward, well-made front-of-house storage solution for sorted cutlery. Constructed from 18/0 stainless steel, it is built to withstand the daily wear of a busy dining environment and is easy to keep clean to the standard expected in commercial food service.

The angled fascias are a practical detail worth noting — they allow staff to retrieve cutlery quickly during service without having to reach into upright compartments, which helps maintain pace at the pass or on a buffet counter. In a high-turnover setting, small ergonomic advantages like this do add up across a full service.

Stainless steel construction keeps this holder hygienic and easy to wipe down between services. It won't corrode or stain under normal front-of-house conditions, and its neutral finish sits comfortably in most dining room or servery environments.

• Angled fascias for faster, easier cutlery retrieval during service
• Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and cleans easily
• Suitable for countertop use at a pass, buffet station, or servery
• Compact footprint for environments where counter space is limited

This holder is well suited to cafés, restaurants, staff canteens, and hotel dining rooms that need a reliable, presentable cutlery storage solution. For operations running very high covers or extended buffet-style service, a multi-compartment or higher-capacity alternative may be worth considering.

If you are fitting out a new servery or reviewing your front-of-house setup, the team is happy to talk through what works best for your layout.

This three-section cutlery tray from Olympia is a straightforward front-of-house storage solution, made from natural acacia wood. It keeps knives, forks and spoons separated and within easy reach for service staff, whether on a counter, sideboard or buffet setup.

In a busy service environment, having cutlery sorted and accessible reduces the small but cumulative delays that slow table turns. A tray like this works well at a host station, behind a bar, or alongside a carvery or buffet where guests or staff need to pick up cutlery quickly without rummaging through a mixed pile.

The acacia wood construction gives it a warm, natural appearance that sits comfortably in settings where a rustic or informal aesthetic is part of the look — casual dining, farm-to-table concepts, or café-style service. It is worth noting that wood requires a little more care than melamine or stainless alternatives; it should be kept dry and wiped down rather than submerged, and is not suitable for use in a dishwasher.

• Three separate compartments keep cutlery types sorted and accessible during service
• Natural acacia wood suits informal or rustic front-of-house presentations
• Compact footprint fits most countertop, sideboard or buffet setups
• Easy to lift and reposition between service periods

This tray is well suited to low- to mid-volume operations where appearance matters and counter space is at a premium. For higher-volume sites or back-of-house cutlery sorting, a larger or more durable alternative may be more practical. If you are unsure whether this fits your service layout, we are happy to help you think it through.

This APS rectangular rattan-style basket is a straightforward front-of-house cutlery holder made from polypropylene. The woven-effect exterior gives it a warmer, more decorative appearance than a plain container, making it a practical choice where operators want a presentable finish on tables or counters without investing in more expensive materials.

At a compact 270x100mm footprint and weighing just 90g, it sits neatly on a table setting or service station without taking up unnecessary space. The polypropylene construction means it tolerates repeated handling, regular washing, and the general wear of a busy service environment. It is not intended for heavy-duty back-of-house use — its value is in how it presents on the pass or at the table.

Practically, it suits a range of settings where cutlery is laid out for self-service or pre-set on tables:

• Lightweight and easy to restock during turnaround between covers
• Polypropylene construction wipes clean quickly and tolerates dishwasher cycles
• Rattan-effect finish provides a warmer aesthetic than plain plastic holders
• Compact rectangular footprint fits standard table settings without crowding
• Consistent appearance across multiple units on a busy floor

There are no installation requirements — it is a freestanding piece of tableware. For operations needing larger capacity holders or different form factors, alternative sizes and styles are available within the APS range.

If you are unsure which size or style suits your service layout, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

This APS cutlery tray is made from acacia wood and is designed to sit on a counter or buffet surface, keeping cutlery organised and accessible during service. It is a straightforward, practical piece with no mechanical components — its value is in presenting cutlery neatly and keeping it within easy reach for both staff and guests.

Acacia is a dense, close-grained hardwood commonly used in food service environments for its durability and resistance to the wear that comes with daily handling. It holds up reasonably well to regular wiping down, though like all natural wood items it should not be submerged in water or run through a dishwasher, as this will cause swelling and cracking over time.

This tray suits front-of-house counters, self-service stations, and casual dining or café settings where a natural material finish is appropriate. It works well on buffet lines where guests serve themselves, or as a countertop organiser in smaller operations where drawer storage is limited.

It is worth bearing in mind that acacia wood requires occasional oiling to maintain its condition, particularly in environments with fluctuating humidity or air conditioning. For high-turnover operations where the tray will be handled constantly and cleaned many times daily, a stainless steel or polypropylene alternative may offer a longer service life with less maintenance.

If you are unsure whether this tray suits the finish or workflow of your front-of-house setup, the team is happy to talk through the options.

The Araven Stackable Cutlery Tray is a straightforward, practical storage solution for organising cutlery in commercial kitchens, serveries, and front-of-house operations. Sized to the GN 1/1 standard, it fits neatly into existing bain marie frames, prep tables, and storage systems without modification.

Finished in granite grey, the tray is designed to stack cleanly when not in use, helping kitchens manage limited storage space more efficiently. The stackable design means multiple units can be stored compactly during quiet periods and deployed quickly at service time — a small but useful practical advantage in busy operations.

For operations running a self-service or assisted cutlery station, this tray keeps presentation tidy and allows staff to replenish quickly without disrupting service flow. It is equally useful in kitchen prep areas where organising cutlery by type helps speed up plating and covers.

• GN 1/1 sizing integrates with standard catering equipment without adapters
• Stackable design reduces storage footprint between services
• Granite grey finish suits both back-of-house and front-of-house use
• Straightforward to clean and quick to rotate through a dishwasher cycle
• Lightweight construction makes handling easy during busy service periods

This tray suits cafes, canteens, contract catering operations, and hospitality venues that need a reliable, low-maintenance cutlery storage solution. For sites with very high cutlery volumes or specific compartment requirements, it is worth checking whether a divided or higher-capacity tray would better suit the workflow.

If you are unsure whether this fits your existing setup or you need to match it to other GN equipment, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

This APS cutlery tray is a straightforward, practical storage solution for sorted cutlery in front-of-house and service counter environments. The fitted cover keeps cutlery protected between service periods, helping to maintain hygiene standards and reducing the need to re-polish before each sitting.

It is commonly used on buffet counters, service stations, and in self-service areas where cutlery needs to be presented neatly and kept covered when not in active use. The tray is well suited to cafés, canteens, hotels, and casual dining operations where a simple, reliable cutlery management system is needed without complexity.

• Fitted cover protects cutlery from dust and handling between service periods
• Keeps sorted cutlery organised and readily accessible during service
• Suitable for front-of-house counters, buffet lines, and self-service stations
• Easy to wipe down and maintain as part of a regular hygiene routine

This is a practical smallware rather than a high-complexity piece of equipment, but choosing the right size and quantity for your layout does matter — if you are equipping a larger service counter or multiple stations, it is worth thinking through how many trays your covers require at any one time. If you are unsure whether this size works for your setup, the team is happy to help you think it through.
