Product Description
The Steelite Blue Dapple slimline plate is an 8-inch side or starter plate from the Simplicity range, finished in white with a sponged blue rim detail on a rolled edge. It is made from alumina vitrified ceramic, which is the standard material used in professional catering crockery where durability and consistent appearance over time are both important considerations.
In a busy service environment, the quality of the material makes a practical difference. Alumina vitrified ceramic resists crazing and staining better than standard earthenware, holds up well through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles, and maintains its appearance across a long service life. The sponged blue rim finish adds a degree of visual interest without being overly decorative, making it a versatile choice for operators who want something a step beyond plain white.
- Rolled edge reduces the risk of chipping in day-to-day handling and stacking
- Alumina vitrified body withstands high-temperature commercial dishwashing
- Consistent finish supports a uniform table presentation across a full service
- Slimline profile stacks efficiently, reducing storage space requirements
- Backed by Steelite's lifetime edge chip warranty for added reassurance
At 202mm this plate sits comfortably as a side plate, bread plate, or starter course plate in a restaurant or café setting. It is equally at home in a canteen or buffet environment where durability and stackability are valued over formality. The pack quantity of 24 suits operators looking to supplement an existing set or equip a smaller section without committing to a larger order.
If you are specifying crockery across a full cover count or matching to an existing range, it is worth having a conversation about quantities and patterns before ordering. The team is happy to help work through what suits your service.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes. The Blue Dapple sponged rim is applied to an alumina vitrified ceramic body, which is the same material used across Steelite's professional catering ranges. It is designed to withstand the temperature and mechanical stresses of commercial dishwashing in high-turnover operations such as restaurants, cafés, and canteens.
- For most operators, 24 plates covers a modest section or provides a useful top-up quantity. A practical rule of thumb in busy service environments is to hold two to three times your seated cover count in each plate size to allow for dishwasher turnaround. If you are specifying from scratch across a full dining room, it is worth calculating your total requirement before ordering.
- Alumina vitrified ceramic is generally suitable for microwave use, though Steelite's guidance should be checked for this specific pattern if you intend to use them routinely in microwave service. For hot-holding on a pass or under heat lamps, the material performs well and retains heat at the table for a reasonable service window.
