At 140mm in diameter, these round trays are a practical serving piece suited to starters, sides, small plates, and desserts across a range of food service settings. This listing supplies twelve trays per pack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlumina vitrified construction gives the Messina trays good resistance to the day-to-day stresses of a working kitchen — repeated dishwasher cycles, knocks during plating, and the temperature variation that comes with freezer-to-pass service. The glaze holds up well against staining and surface wear, which matters when presentation consistency is expected across a long service period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFrom an operational standpoint, the trays offer a few practical advantages worth noting:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStackable design reduces storage footprint in tight prep and pass areas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with dishwashers, microwaves, and freezers, supporting flexible service prep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUniform size and shape aids consistent plating across a section\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteelite's Lifetime Edge Chip Warranty provides reassurance against edge damage in normal service use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThere are no unusual installation considerations with tableware of this kind. The main practical question is quantity — for high-volume or multi-outlet operations, it is worth calculating cover numbers against likely turnaround time to determine how many packs are needed to maintain a working float without shortfall during peak service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese trays are well suited to casual dining, café operations, hotel food service, and small plates or tapas menus where a compact, stackable ceramic piece is preferable to a full plate. Operations requiring a larger surface area or a different format will find alternative sizes and shapes available within the Steelite range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are specifying tableware across a new opening or a full cover count and would like guidance on quantities or format options, the team is happy to help you work through it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Steelite Performance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58198604513662,"sku":"VV5186","price":111.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1753\/9017\/files\/vv5186_npi26-1.jpg?v=1791822556","url":"https:\/\/www.advantage-catering-equipment.co.uk\/products\/steelite-messina-round-stacking-trays-blue-140mm-12-pack","provider":"Advantage Catering Equipment","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
