Price Match

The Steelite Performance Flora coupe plates are a 280mm round flatware option finished in a distinctive blue colourway. Made from high alumina vitrified china, this is a robust tableware choice aimed at commercial hospitality operations where durability and consistent presentation both matter. Coupe plates — characterised by their shallow, rimless profile — work well for plated starters, main courses, and composed dishes where presentation space and clean sightlines are a priority.

High alumina vitrified construction is a well-regarded choice for front-of-house tableware in busy venues. The material is noticeably harder and more chip-resistant than standard vitrified china, which matters when plates are being cleared, stacked, and run through commercial glasswashers or dishwashers multiple times a day. It also retains heat reasonably well once warmed, which helps dishes hold their serving temperature from pass to table. The blue colourway is consistent across the Flora range, so building a coordinated table setting across multiple plate sizes is straightforward.

Practical considerations for operators include:

  • High alumina vitrified body offers strong resistance to chipping and cracking under daily commercial use
  • Dishwasher safe and suitable for commercial warewashing cycles
  • Good thermal retention once pre-heated at the pass
  • Consistent glaze and colourway across the Flora range aids uniform presentation
  • Supplied in a pack of 12, practical for service cover planning

These plates are well suited to restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and casual dining venues looking for a coloured flatware option that holds up to the pace of a busy service. The 280mm size is appropriate for main course portions in most settings. For very high-volume operations with rapid turnaround requirements, it is worth considering whether a larger opening quantity makes sense from a stock perspective.

If you are building out a full cover for a new venue or want to discuss how the Flora range fits with your existing tableware, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

Frequently asked questions

How well do these plates hold up to daily commercial dishwashing?

High alumina vitrified china is a recognised step up from standard vitrified ware in terms of hardness and chip resistance, which makes it a practical choice where plates are being loaded, stacked, and machine-washed multiple times per service. Provided they are handled and racked correctly in a commercial dishwasher, these plates are designed to withstand the demands of regular high-volume warewashing.

Is the 280mm size appropriate for main course portions?

280mm is a widely used main course plate size in restaurant settings and works well for most plated portion sizes. The coupe profile means most of that diameter is usable surface area, which gives chefs reasonable space for composition. If you are serving particularly generous portions or elaborate plated dishes, it is worth checking the plate size against your typical presentation before committing to a large opening order.

Can I mix these plates with other sizes in the Steelite Flora range for a coordinated table setting?

Yes — the Flora range is produced with a consistent blue glaze and design language across multiple plate sizes, which makes it straightforward to build a coordinated cover using different plate sizes from the same range. If you need guidance on which sizes are available or how to plan cover quantities across a full table setting, the team can assist.
