Product Description
The Dudson Evo Jet flat plate is a 318mm vitrified stoneware plate from the Evo range, finished in a deep matt black that references the look of hand-thrown pottery. It is sold in packs of four, making it a practical choice for operators looking to build or supplement a consistent cover set.
Vitrified stoneware is a well-regarded material in commercial tableware. The vitrification process compresses the clay body at high temperature, producing a plate that is denser and more chip-resistant than standard earthenware, and better able to withstand the daily handling of a busy service environment — repeated trips through commercial dishwashers, stacking, and the general wear of a working kitchen.
In practical terms, the Evo Jet suits operations where presentation matters as much as durability. The textured, craft-influenced finish works well with contemporary plating styles and sits comfortably in casual dining, gastro pub, and bistro settings. At 318mm, it is a generous main course plate, giving chefs adequate space to compose dishes without crowding the rim.
- Craft aesthetic that complements modern plating presentations
- Vitrified stoneware body offers good chip resistance in daily service
- Suitable for commercial dishwasher use
- Consistent finish across the pack supports uniform table presentation
- Pack-of-four format suits phased stock building or replacement
One consideration worth noting is weight. At 1.57kg per plate, the Evo Jet is a substantial piece — as expected with stoneware — and some front-of-house teams find heavier plates add to fatigue over a long service. It is worth factoring this in if staff are carrying multiple covers at once. For operations needing a lighter plate of similar aesthetic, alternatives within the broader Dudson range may be worth considering.
If you are building a full cover set or matching the Evo Jet plates to other pieces in the range, the team is happy to help you work out the right quantities and combinations before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Vitrified stoneware is more durable than standard earthenware because the clay body is fired to a higher density, which improves chip resistance and reduces porosity. In a busy commercial setting it performs well through repeated dishwasher cycles and regular handling, though no ceramic tableware is immune to breakage if dropped on hard kitchen floors. Most operators find it a reliable choice for mid- to high-end casual dining.
- At 318mm, this is a large main course plate — noticeably more generous than the 270–285mm plates common in more casual settings. It suits operations where presentation and plating space are a priority, such as bistros, gastro pubs, or contemporary restaurants. If your service style involves sharing plates or smaller portions, a smaller size from within the range may be a better fit.
- It is worth factoring in. Stoneware plates are inherently heavier than porcelain equivalents, and at 1.57kg per plate, staff carrying two or three covers at once will notice the weight over a long service. This is rarely a dealbreaker, but if your front-of-house team regularly carries large multi-plate loads, it is a practical point to raise with your team before committing to a full cover set.
