Steelite Willow Mid Rim Plate 230mm (Pack of 24)

The Steelite Willow Mid Rim Plate is a 230mm all-purpose plate designed for use across a wide range of hospitality covers. The mid rim profile gives it enough border to support neat plating and sauce work, while keeping the well proportioned for standard starter and side portions. The surface carries a raised textural pattern beneath a gloss glaze, which gives the range a degree of visual distinction without straying into decorative excess.

Steelite's alumina vitrified ceramic construction is the practical detail that matters most in a busy operation. Alumina enrichment improves the density and impact resistance of the body, which translates to a plate that holds up better against the daily handling, stacking, and mechanical wash cycles that a high-turnover kitchen puts tableware through. These are not display pieces — they are working plates built to a commercial standard.

From an operational standpoint, the Willow range offers a few practical advantages worth noting:

• Gloss glaze resists staining and supports quick turnaround through commercial dishwashers
• Consistent weight and profile makes stacking and service handling straightforward
• Neutral white finish suits a wide range of food styles and plating approaches
• Pack of 24 provides a sensible opening quantity for most service sections
• Mid rim format works across starters, sides, and sharing portions

At 230mm this plate sits in a versatile mid-size bracket. It works well as a starter plate in most table service settings or as a side plate in more substantial cover configurations. Operators running high-volume covers or looking to build a larger opening stock may want to consider higher-quantity formats. The Willow range also extends into other plate sizes and shapes, which is worth bearing in mind if you are building a coordinated tabletop.

If you would like guidance on quantities, range coordination, or which plate sizes best suit your menu format, the team is happy to help you think it through.
