Product Description
The Steelite Willow Mid Rim Plate is a 270mm white tableware plate manufactured from alumina vitrified ceramic — a dense, reinforced ceramic composition that is commonly specified in professional food service environments precisely because of its resistance to chipping, crazing, and the general wear that comes with continuous commercial use. The raised surface texture sits beneath a gloss glaze finish, giving the plate a clean, light-reflective appearance that works well across a range of plating styles without competing with the food.
In a busy service environment, tableware takes a considerable amount of punishment — stacking, dishwasher cycling, and handling across multiple covers every day. Alumina vitrified ceramic holds up well under these conditions. It maintains its glaze integrity and appearance over extended use, which matters when you are running consistent covers and need a plate that looks presentable from the first service of the day to the last. The 270mm diameter makes this a practical all-round plate, suitable as a main course plate in most standard and contemporary covers.
Practical advantages for operators include:
- Durable alumina vitrified ceramic construction resists chipping under daily commercial use
- Gloss glaze finish is straightforward to clean and maintains its appearance through repeated machine washing
- Mid rim profile suits a wide range of plating presentations and service styles
- White finish integrates easily with existing tableware, reducing the complexity of mixed covers
- Supplied in a pack of 24, practical for building or refreshing par stock without over-ordering
There are no particular installation or infrastructure requirements for tableware, but it is worth considering storage. A pack of 24 plates at the combined weight of 17.28kg needs appropriate shelving. Stacking height should follow standard front-of-house practice to avoid undue pressure on lower plates and reduce the risk of rim damage over time.
This plate is well suited to restaurants, hotels, contract catering operations, and any professional kitchen where a reliable, presentable white mid rim plate is needed in quantity. For operations running very high covers with rapid turnaround, it is worth reviewing the full Steelite Willow range, which includes additional piece types and sizes that may complement this plate within a coordinated table setting. If you are specifying tableware across a larger opening or a refurbishment and want to talk through quantities or compatibility with your existing range, the team is happy to help.
