Price Match

These Utopia Spanish Tile side plates are melamine tableware finished with a distinctive multi-coloured mosaic effect around the rim on a white body. At 160mm in diameter, they sit in the standard side plate range and are supplied in a pack of 48, making them practical for operators who need to stock a full service without placing multiple smaller orders.

Melamine is a long-established choice in contract catering environments where breakage rates matter. It is significantly more resistant to chipping and cracking than ceramic, and the material is lightweight enough to reduce fatigue in high-turnover service settings. The Spanish Tile pattern gives a degree of visual character without being overtly themed, which means they can sit comfortably in a range of dining environments.

  • Resistant to chipping and cracking under daily commercial use
  • Lightweight construction reduces handling fatigue during service
  • Mosaic rim design adds visual interest without a strong theme dependency
  • Pack of 48 supports full-section stocking in one order
  • Easy to clean and suitable for commercial dishwasher use

These plates are well suited to care homes, schools, hospital catering, staff restaurants, and similar contract catering environments where durability and cost of replacement are practical concerns. They are not intended for fine dining or establishments where ceramic or porcelain is expected by guests.

If you are equipping a larger site or need to match these with a broader range of melamine pieces, our team can help you assess quantities and coordinate across the range — feel free to get in touch before placing a large order.

Frequently asked questions

Are these plates suitable for use in a care home or hospital setting?

Yes, melamine tableware is commonly specified in care homes, hospitals, and school catering precisely because it withstands the rigours of daily institutional use. The material is hygienic, easy to clean, and far more resistant to breakage than standard ceramic plates, which is an important consideration in environments where crockery is handled by a wide range of staff and service users.

Can these plates go in a commercial dishwasher?

Melamine plates are generally compatible with commercial dishwashers, though it is worth avoiding excessively high-temperature cycles over prolonged periods, as sustained heat can affect the surface finish over time. Standard commercial dishwasher settings used in catering environments are typically suitable for everyday use.

Is a pack of 48 the right quantity for my operation?

For a smaller site running one sitting at a time, 48 plates may be sufficient as a working stock. Larger operations or those running multiple sittings in quick succession will often need additional packs to maintain service without waiting on dishwasher turnaround. If you are unsure how many covers to stock for, our team are happy to advise based on your service model.
