Delivery Information

Price Match

The Steelite Alina range is a fine-china-style tableware collection built on alumina vitrified porcelain — a material chosen by Steelite specifically for its durability in demanding commercial environments. The oval coupe format at 230mm makes these plates well suited to starter and main course plating where a clean, uncluttered rim is preferable. The subtle embossed detail at the centre of each plate gives chefs a natural focal point for composed dishes without competing with the food itself.

In everyday service, alumina vitrified ware holds up reliably under the thermal stresses that come with commercial kitchens — passing from chill storage through a hot pass and back through a commercial dishwasher repeatedly without the crazing or chipping that affects lower-grade porcelain. The fully glazed base reduces wear during stacking and on plate slides, which matters in high-turnover operations where plates cycle dozens of times per service. Steelite backs the range with a lifetime edge chip warranty, which reflects both the build quality and the confidence operators can reasonably place in the product.

  • Clean oval coupe profile suits modern plating styles
  • Alumina vitrified construction for durability under commercial use
  • Fully glazed base reduces chipping and wear during stacking
  • Tested for temperature retention — suitable for both hot and chilled courses
  • Lifetime edge chip warranty from Steelite

These are a practical choice for restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and banqueting operations looking for a consistent, durable plate across a mid-to-large cover count. For very high-volume sites with significant daily throughput, it is worth discussing whether a heavier-gauge or more utilitarian alternative would offer better long-term cost-in-use.

If you are specifying tableware across multiple plate sizes or building out a full Alina cover, we are happy to talk through what quantities and formats make sense for your service style.

Frequently asked questions

Are these plates suitable for daily use in a high-cover restaurant?

Yes — alumina vitrified porcelain is a widely used material in commercial tableware precisely because it handles the repeated thermal cycling and mechanical handling of busy restaurant service. The fully glazed base and Steelite's lifetime edge chip warranty both reflect this. For very high-volume operations running multiple sittings daily, it is worth assessing total cover count against pack quantities to ensure you hold adequate stock.

Can these plates go through a commercial dishwasher?

Steelite's alumina vitrified ware is designed for commercial dishwasher use and is tested accordingly. The glaze is formulated to resist the detergent concentrations and temperatures typical of rack and conveyor machines in commercial kitchens.

Are the Alina plates available in other sizes to build a full cover?

The Alina collection spans multiple plate formats and sizes, so it is possible to specify a consistent look across starters, mains, and sharing plates. If you are building out a full cover or need guidance on quantities for your service style, our team can help you work through the right combination.
