Steelite Simplicity White Slimline Plates 202mm (Pack of 24)

The Steelite Simplicity White slimline plate is a straightforward, versatile side or starter plate made from alumina vitrified ceramic — a dense, vitrified body that Steelite uses across its commercial ranges for its resilience in high-turnover environments. At 202mm, this is a practical all-rounder that sits comfortably across hotel breakfast settings, café lunch covers and pub dinner service without looking out of place on any of them.

In day-to-day service, the slimline profile keeps the plate light enough to handle comfortably at pace during busy covers, while the white glaze provides a clean, neutral backdrop that works across most menu styles and plating approaches. The ceramic body holds heat reasonably well once pre-heated, which supports consistent presentation during service without relying on insulated plate covers.

From an operational standpoint, the Simplicity range is designed to cope with the stacking, dishwashing cycles and general handling that commercial use demands. Key practical points include:

• Dishwasher safe — suitable for commercial rack and conveyor machines
• Microwave and freezer compatible for flexible kitchen workflow
• Alumina vitrified ceramic body offers good chip and crack resistance under daily use
• Backed by Steelite's Lifetime Edge Chip warranty
• Supplied in a pack of 24, practical for bulk replacement and stock management

These plates require no special storage or handling beyond standard crockery practice. The 202mm size works well as a side plate, starter plate or dessert plate depending on the operation. For venues running high-volume covers where a larger main plate is the primary requirement, larger sizes within the Simplicity range are available. Equally, operations needing a smaller bread or butter plate will find that option within the same family.

If you're building out a full table setting or want to confirm the right plate sizes for your service style, the team is happy to talk it through.
