Steelite Willow Mid Rim Plate 157.5mm (Pack of 36)

The Steelite Willow Mid Rim Plate is a compact side or starter plate from Steelite's Willow range. At 157.5mm in diameter, it sits in the classic mid rim format — a shallow, defined rim surrounding a broad well — and is finished in a gloss white glaze that carries a subtle raised texture across the surface. The result is a plate that reads as clean and professional on the table without requiring elaborate presentation to carry it.

Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, the Willow range is engineered specifically for the demands of commercial table service. Alumina enrichment increases the density and impact resistance of the body, which matters in high-turnover operations where plates are stacked, racked, and handled at speed throughout a long service. The gloss glaze is resistant to cutlery marking and maintains its appearance through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles, which is a practical consideration in any operation running a fast table turn.

For front-of-house teams, the consistent finish across the Willow range supports a uniform table presentation without relying on careful plate matching. The 157.5mm size works well as a side plate, bread plate, or starter in more considered service formats. Key operational characteristics include:

• Alumina vitrified body for improved chip and crack resistance in daily service
• Gloss glaze resists cutlery marks and staining over repeated use
• Consistent white finish supports uniform table presentation across covers
• Compatible with commercial dishwashers and standard plate racking systems
• Supplied in a pack of 36 to support batch stocking for active service sections

The pack-of-36 format suits operators looking to stock or top up a section without committing to a full case order of a single size. The Willow range extends across multiple plate sizes and complementary pieces, so it is worth considering the full service requirement before ordering individual sizes in isolation.

If you are specifying tableware for a new opening or refreshing an existing cover, the team is happy to talk through quantities, size selection, and how the Willow range fits alongside your current service style.
