Delivery Information

Price Match

This Dalebrook rectangular melamine tray is a compact, practical serving piece suitable for cafés, staff canteens, buffet counters, and light food service operations. The white high-gloss finish gives an appearance close to china or porcelain, making it a presentable option where aesthetics matter but full crockery service is impractical or unnecessary.

Melamine at this quality level is well suited to environments where trays see repeated daily handling. The material resists scratching and chipping under normal commercial use, holding its appearance over time better than lower-grade plastics. It is straightforward to clean and handles the general demands of a busy service counter without issue.

In practical terms, this tray suits:

  • Café and coffee shop counter service
  • Staff restaurant and canteen environments
  • Buffet and self-service setups
  • Light hospitality and event catering

The compact footprint makes it appropriate for individual meal service, starter plates, or snack presentation rather than full multi-dish tray service. Operators needing a larger format for full meal trays should consider higher-capacity options within the range.

Melamine should not be used in microwave ovens or conventional ovens, and is not suitable for direct contact with very high-temperature items for extended periods. It is dishwasher safe under normal commercial warewasher conditions, though prolonged high-temperature cycles may affect finish over time.

If you are equipping a new service area or sourcing in volume and want to confirm the right size and finish for your setup, our team is happy to help.

Frequently asked questions

Is this tray suitable for use in a commercial dishwasher?

Yes, melamine trays of this type are generally compatible with commercial warewashers under normal operating conditions. Prolonged exposure to very high-temperature or high-chemical cycles can affect the gloss finish over time, so standard programme settings are advisable.

Can this tray be used in a microwave or heated pass-through unit?

Melamine is not microwave-safe and should not be placed in conventional ovens. It is suitable for ambient and cold service but is not designed for direct contact with high heat sources.

Is this size appropriate for full meal tray service in a canteen?

At 160x240mm, this tray is best suited to individual snack, starter, or light meal service rather than full multi-dish meal trays. If you need a larger format to carry a main course alongside sides and a drink, a larger tray from the range would be more appropriate — worth confirming before ordering in volume.
