Delivery Information

Price Match

The Steelite Pompeii range offers a slate-effect melamine bowl that delivers the aesthetic of natural slate without the weight or fragility associated with the real material. Each bowl measures 140mm in diameter and carries a capacity of 377ml — a practical size for starters, sides, dips, sauces, and small dessert servings.

Melamine is the material of choice in many casual and high-turnover dining environments precisely because it absorbs the knocks and drops of busy service far better than ceramics or genuine stoneware. It is noticeably lighter to handle, which matters during extended service periods when staff are clearing and resetting tables at pace. The slate-effect finish holds up well to repeated use without the surface dulling quickly, making it a practical choice where presentation consistency across covers matters.

  • Suitable for both hot and cold food service
  • BPA-free construction
  • Lighter weight than ceramic equivalents, reducing handling fatigue
  • Coordinates with other pieces in the Steelite Pompeii range for a coherent table setting
  • Resistant to chipping, making it well suited to high-turnover environments

These bowls are best suited to casual dining, street food concepts, farm-to-table restaurants, and operators looking to build a rustic or Mediterranean-influenced table aesthetic without investing in heavier ceramic tableware. They work well in environments where a degree of informality is part of the concept. For operations requiring a more formal table setting or full ceramic durability, a different range may be more appropriate.

If you are specifying tableware across a full cover count or coordinating with a broader table concept, it is worth having a conversation with us before ordering quantities — we are happy to help make sure the range works together as intended.

Frequently asked questions

Are these bowls suitable for use in a commercial dishwasher?

Melamine tableware is generally compatible with commercial dishwashers, though repeated high-temperature cycles can gradually affect the surface finish over time. It is worth checking the manufacturer's care guidance and running a test cycle before committing to a full service wash programme.

Can these bowls be used for hot food service, such as soups or warm sides?

Yes, the melamine construction is suitable for both hot and cold food service. However, melamine should not be used in microwave ovens, so any reheating would need to happen before plating rather than in the bowl itself.

How do these bowls fit into a broader Pompeii table setting?

The Pompeii range is designed to coordinate across multiple piece types, so these bowls are intended to sit alongside slate-effect plates and other items in the same collection. If you are building out a full table concept, we can advise on which pieces work together and help you plan quantities against your cover count.
