Product Description
The Dudson Evo Granite flat plate is a 318mm vitrified stoneware plate with a textured, hand-thrown aesthetic. The earthy granite-style glaze gives it an informal, tactile character that sits comfortably in casual dining rooms, bistros, and café environments where a relaxed, rustic table setting is part of the overall experience. It is sold in packs of four.
Vitrified stoneware offers a practical balance of durability and appearance for busy foodservice operations. It handles repeated dishwasher cycles well, holds its finish over extended use, and provides reasonable chip resistance compared to standard earthenware. The Evo Granite range is designed to perform reliably in both the back-of-house wash cycle and front-of-house service — it is working tableware, not purely decorative.
At 318mm, this is a generously sized plate for plated main courses, sharing starters, or presentations where space around the food matters. The flat profile stacks cleanly and is straightforward to handle and store during a busy service.
- Textured granite glaze suits casual and bistro dining concepts
- Flat profile stacks efficiently in storage and on pass
- Vitrified stoneware construction withstands regular commercial dishwashing
- 318mm diameter gives good presentation space for main course plating
It is worth noting that vitrified stoneware is heavier than porcelain at comparable sizes — at 1.57kg per plate, front-of-house staff will feel the difference during a long service, which is worth factoring in if staff workload is a consideration. Ensure your dishwasher racks accommodate larger-diameter plates without overcrowding, as this affects wash quality and can increase breakage rates over time.
This plate is well suited to independent restaurants, gastropubs, hotels, and café operators looking for an artisan feel without the fragility or cost of hand-made ceramics. If your concept calls for a lighter plate, a higher-gloss finish, or a different size profile, it is worth reviewing the wider range before committing to a full order.
If you are building out a table setting or need to match across a range, we are happy to talk it through before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Vitrified stoneware performs well in most commercial foodservice environments and handles regular dishwasher use reliably. For very high-volume operations running multiple sittings a day, it is worth factoring in the weight of the plate — at 1.57kg each, staff will notice this over a long service compared to a lighter porcelain equivalent. If throughput and staff handling are priorities, it is worth discussing whether a lighter range would be a better fit.
- The vitrified stoneware construction is designed to withstand repeated commercial dishwasher cycles without significant glaze degradation. As with any textured surface, ensuring plates are not overcrowded in dishwasher racks will help maintain wash quality and reduce the risk of chipping from plates knocking together during the cycle.
- This range works well in casual dining restaurants, gastropubs, bistros, and cafés where an informal, tactile table setting is part of the concept. It is less well suited to fine dining environments that call for a high-gloss, refined finish, or operations where plate weight is a key consideration for front-of-house staff.
