Product Description
The Steelite Asteria Stack Plate is a rimless, 255mm round plate produced in alumina vitrified ceramic. Its profile is deliberately flat and open, removing the raised rim found on conventional plates so that the entire surface is available for plating. The defining visual detail is a deep black band around the edge, set against a clean white ground, which frames the dish without competing with it.
In a busy service environment, presentation plates need to perform reliably night after night. Alumina vitrified ceramic is a well-established body in commercial tableware — it fires at high temperatures to produce a dense, low-porosity surface that resists chipping and crazing under the stresses of repeated handling, racking, and commercial dishwashing. The Asteria range is built to the standards expected of a supplier who serves high-volume restaurant and hotel operations.
For kitchen and front-of-house teams, the practical advantages of this plate centre on its plating geometry and durability:
- Fully rimless profile maximises the usable plating surface
- Contrast black band creates a natural frame that focuses the eye on the food
- Dense vitrified ceramic body withstands commercial dishwasher cycles
- Consistent white ground reproduces reliably across batches for a matched table lay
- Stacks efficiently for storage and pass organisation
Supplied in a box of 12, this plate is sized for main course service in a restaurant context. It sits comfortably within a broader Asteria collection, so operators building a full table setting can match across courses and formats. If your operation runs very high covers or requires a larger plate for sharing or composed dishes, it is worth reviewing the wider Asteria range for complementary sizes.
If you are building out a full table setting or want to confirm this plate works with your existing Steelite pieces, the team is happy to help you put the right combination together.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes. Alumina vitrified ceramic is a proven body for commercial tableware and is commonly specified in restaurants, hotels, and contract catering where plates go through heavy daily use and high-temperature dishwasher cycles. The Asteria range is produced by Steelite, a supplier with long-standing experience supplying high-volume hospitality operations.
- Without a raised rim, the full 255mm surface is available to the chef, which suits composed plating styles where elements are arranged across the whole plate. On the pass, the flat profile also means plates stack cleanly and stably, which helps with organisation during a busy service.
- The Asteria Stack Plate is part of a broader Steelite Asteria collection, so it can typically be combined with other formats and sizes within the range for a consistent table lay. If you are specifying across courses or building a full setting, it is worth speaking with the team to confirm which pieces are available and how they work together.
