Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Clifton Arms Hotel in Lytham St Annes was looking to upgrade its room service equipment. Their old plastic trays were showing their age with cracks and  stains, which didn't reflect the hotel's premium image. They needed a durable and  professional-looking solution.

"We switched to the Olympia stainless steel trays and  the difference was immediate. They look sleek, they're incredibly easy for the team to clean, and  they feel substantial. Our guests notice the little details, and  this was a simple but effective improvement to our service quality."

Robert Davies – Head of Housekeeping

The switch completely refreshed their room service presentation and  cut down on staff cleaning time, allowing for a faster turnaround between guest requests.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon delivery, remove all packaging and  inspect the tray for any dings from transit.
  • Give the tray a thorough wash with warm, soapy water before its first use.
  • Dry completely with a soft cloth to ensure a perfect, streak-free finish.

Keeping It Going

  • This tray is fully commercial dishwasher safe for your convenience.
  • To avoid water spots, dry the tray promptly after washing, rather than letting it air dry.
  • Use non-abrasive cloths and  cleaners to maintain its polished surface.
  • Stack carefully to prevent surface scratches between the trays.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Service Tray

Not sure which service tray is right for your business? Here’s what to consider before you buy.

Material Matters

Stainless steel offers the best mix of durability and  hygiene for most commercial uses. Plastic is a budget-friendly option, while wood or slate offer a rustic aesthetic but require more care.

Size and  Shape

Consider what you'll be carrying most often. A large round tray like this is perfect for drinks and  multiple small plates. Rectangular trays are often better for carrying larger, single meal plates.

Safety Features

A raised edge, like the one on this model, is a simple but crucial feature for preventing spills and  items sliding off, especially in a fast-paced environment.

Storage Solutions

If space is tight, always check if the trays are stackable. It's a non-negotiable feature for most kitchens and  storerooms to maintain an organised space.

Ease of Cleaning

Is the tray dishwasher safe? This will save your team a huge amount of time and  effort compared to hand-washing, ensuring a faster turnaround during service.

Why Stainless Steel is the Professional's Choice

You see 'stainless steel' everywhere, but what does it actually mean for your business? Think of it as armour for your equipment. Unlike plastic which can absorb odours and  stains, or wood that can warp and  harbour germs, stainless steel is non-porous. This means it provides a completely hygienic surface that’s incredibly easy to clean and  sanitise, which is vital in any food environment. Its natural resistance to corrosion means you can send this Olympia DM194 serving tray through a hot, steamy commercial dishwasher day after day without a hint of rust. It's the ultimate 'fit and  forget' material for busy catering operations.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Cafés & Tea Rooms: Perfect for delivering afternoon tea sets, coffee, and  cake orders elegantly to tables without fuss.
  • Hotels & Conference Centres: An essential for reliable room service delivery, conference refreshments, or clearing tables efficiently.
  • Restaurants & Bistros: A durable restaurant serving tray round for waiters carrying multiple plates or clearing tables during peak hours.
