The blue colourway gives the range a distinctive Mediterranean character that works well on menus built around pasta, risotto, grain dishes, or any plate where a deeper, wide-rimmed bowl serves both function and aesthetic. The 270mm diameter offers a generous serving surface suited to main course portions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade from alumina vitrified china, the Messina range is built to withstand the daily cycle of service, dishwashing, and stacking that commercial tableware goes through repeatedly. The vitrification process produces a dense, low-porosity body that resists staining and glaze wear over time, which is a practical consideration for any operation running the same pieces through multiple covers daily. Thermal shock resistance means the bowls handle the transition from dishwasher heat to ambient temperatures reliably, reducing the risk of crazing or cracking under normal service conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResists staining and glaze wear through regular dishwasher cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood thermal shock resistance for reliable day-to-day service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with dishwashers, microwaves, and freezers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBacked by Steelite's Lifetime Edge Chip Warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied in a pack of 12, suited to building or topping up a cover set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese bowls are well suited to restaurants, bistros, hotel dining rooms, and contract catering operations where a consistent, coloured tableware range is required. The pack of 12 makes them practical for adding to an existing cover count or replacing attrition losses across a section. For operations running very high covers, it is worth considering how many packs are needed to maintain a working float through a full service without relying on mid-service washing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you are building a new tableware set or matching into an existing Messina range, we are happy to talk through quantities and pack configurations to suit your cover numbers and service style.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Steelite Performance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58197420900734,"sku":"VV5183","price":154.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1753\/9017\/files\/vv5183_npi26-1.jpg?v=1791808226","url":"https:\/\/www.advantage-catering-equipment.co.uk\/products\/steelite-messina-pasta-bowls-blue-270mm-12-pack","provider":"Advantage Catering Equipment","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
