Product Description
The Steelite Spyro is a large-format dinner plate finished in white alumina vitrified ceramic, featuring a subtly embossed swirling detail around the rim. At 320mm in diameter, it sits comfortably in the fine dining and formal banqueting bracket, where presentation matters as much as durability. The embossed pattern is part of the fired body rather than an applied decoration, so it holds its appearance through continuous commercial use.
Alumina vitrified ceramic is a well-regarded material in professional kitchens because it combines a dense, low-porosity body with a robust glaze that resists staining and withstands the thermal cycling that comes with dishwasher use, hot plate passes, and cold storage. The Spyro carries a lifetime edge chip warranty, which reflects the confidence Steelite place in the construction — edge chipping being the most common failure point for plates in busy front-of-house environments.
From an operational standpoint, the Spyro plates offer several practical advantages:
- Stain-resistant glaze reduces the risk of discolouration from sauces and dressings over time
- Thermal shock resistance supports rapid transitions between service temperatures
- The embossed detail adds visual character without creating difficult-to-clean recesses
- At 970g per plate, the weight gives a solid, quality feel in service without being impractical to carry
- Sold in packs of six, making it straightforward to build or replenish covers in multiples
These plates are best suited to fine dining restaurants, hotel restaurants, private dining rooms, and banqueting operations where a refined but hardwearing plate is required. For lighter-use or higher-volume casual dining environments, a smaller or more utilitarian plate from the same range may be a better fit for the service style.
If you are specifying crockery for a new opening or a full cover refresh and want to talk through quantities or range compatibility, the team is happy to help.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes. Alumina vitrified ceramic is specifically suited to the thermal demands of commercial dishwashers, where rapid temperature changes are routine. The robust glaze and dense ceramic body are designed to withstand this cycling over an extended service life.
- As a general guide, most operations run two to three plates per cover to allow for dishwasher turnaround and breakage float. For a 40-cover restaurant, that would suggest a starting stock of around 80 to 120 plates, or 14 to 20 packs. The right number depends on your sitting frequency, service style, and wash-up cycle time — it is worth thinking through your throughput before ordering.
- Steelite's lifetime edge chip warranty covers chipping at the rim of the plate under normal commercial use. Edge chipping is the most common failure mode for dinnerware in professional kitchens, so this warranty is a meaningful indicator of build quality. Specific claim conditions are set by Steelite — if you need the full warranty terms before specifying, we can confirm these for you.
