The Med Tiles pattern is drawn from the geometric tilework found in the coastal cities of Spain, Portugal, and North Africa, and is applied using a reactive printing process. Because of how that process works, each plate carries a subtly unique, aged appearance — a deliberate design choice rather than an inconsistency in production.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnderneath the finish, the plate is made from Churchill's Super Vitrified ceramic body, which is well regarded in commercial foodservice for its resistance to rim chipping and glaze crazing. Both are common failure points in heavy-use operations, particularly where plates are cycled through mechanical dishwashers repeatedly across a long service period. The material holds up reliably in that environment without the finish degrading quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe triangle format works well for operators who want to move beyond round plates for specific courses.
