Steelite Rio Yellow Service Chop Plates 300mm (Pack of 12)

The Steelite Rio range is a hand-finished ceramic tableware collection designed for operators who want to introduce a relaxed, informal feel to their table setting without sacrificing durability. The yellow colourway is applied as a colour wash rather than a uniform glaze, which gives each piece a slight variation in finish — deliberately so. This is tableware intended to complement a bistro, casual dining, or café environment rather than a formal white-tablecloth setting.

Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, the Rio chop plate is built to perform under the everyday pressures of commercial service. The material is resistant to thermal shock, which matters in kitchens where plates move between holding environments and hot pass areas. The glaze is designed to hold up against repeated commercial dishwasher cycles without significant crazing or fading, and Steelite backs the range with a lifetime edge chip warranty — a reasonable indicator of confidence in long-term durability.

At 300mm these are generous chop or service plates, well suited to sharing presentations, main course service with generous portioning, or as a base plate in more layered table settings. The warm yellow tone works particularly well when mixed with other colours in the Rio range, giving front-of-house teams the flexibility to build a varied, cohesive look across covers.

Practically speaking, these are straightforward to integrate into an existing chinaware setup. They stack efficiently, and the pack quantity of 12 is a sensible starting point for smaller operations or for testing a colour alongside existing stock.

If you are building out a full table scheme or need guidance on mixing Rio colours for a specific cover count, the team is happy to help work through the options before you order.
