Product Overview

Here’s a real workhorse for any bustling service environment. The Kristallon C560 is a classic, no-fuss rectangular non-slip serving tray designed to make life easier for your front-of-house team.

Crafted for busy pubs, school canteens, cafes, and  restaurants, this 510mm catering tray provides ample space for full orders or quick table clearing.

  • Impressive Grip: The textured surface genuinely works, providing excellent grip even with condensation from glasses.
  • Hand-Wash Only: Not being dishwasher safe is a small operational niggle for high-turnover sites.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Old Ship Inn, a busy pub in Cardiff, needed to replace its ageing fleet of serving trays. Their old ones had become cracked and  slippery, leading to a noticeable increase in dropped glasses during the hectic weekend rushes.

"These Kristallon trays have been absolutely brilliant. They're rock solid and  the non-slip surface gives our newer staff members so much more confidence carrying drinks through a crowded bar. No more wobbly glasses or near-misses."

Liam O'Connell – General Manager

The pub reported that switching to the Kristallon C560 helped reduce their glassware breakage costs by nearly 40% in the first three months.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before first use, give each tray a quick wash with warm, soapy water.
  • Peel off any stickers or labels from the manufacturer.
  • Dry them completely and  stack them in a dry, easy-to-reach location.
  • They're ready for service straight away – no complex setup needed!

Keeping It Going

  • Always wash by hand. Do not place in a commercial dishwasher.
  • Use a soft cloth or sponge to avoid scratching the surface.
  • Avoid abrasive scouring pads as they can wear down the non-slip texture.
  • Ensure trays are fully dry before stacking to maintain hygiene and  prevent sticking.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Serving Tray

Not sure what fits your business best? When you're in the market for a new set of trays, here are a few key things to keep in mind to make the right choice.

Surface Grip is Key

For any venue carrying drinks or clearing tables in a hurry, a non-slip surface isn't a luxury, it's a must-have to prevent costly and  messy accidents.

Consider the Size

Think about your primary use. A large 510mm catering tray is perfect for clearing multiple place settings, while smaller trays might suit individual customer orders.

Material & Strength

Polypropylene, as used in this black polypropylene food tray, offers a fantastic balance of durability and  low weight, preventing that annoying flex under a heavy load.

Check for Stackability

If storage space is at a premium (and where isn't it?), trays designed to stack neatly without jamming together are an absolute lifesaver.

Ease of Cleaning

Be realistic about your cleaning process. A non-porous, wipe-clean surface is fantastic for quick turnarounds, even if it's hand-wash only.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the non-slip surface a coating that will peel off?

A: No, it's a texture that is physically moulded into the tray's surface during production, so it is extremely durable and  won't peel or flake away.

Q: Will this tray bend or flex if I carry heavy plates on it?

A: This tray is made from strong, rigid polypropylene specifically designed to resist flexing and  provide a stable platform for carrying heavy items.

Q: What exactly is polypropylene?

A: It's a highly durable, lightweight, and  food-safe thermoplastic that is prized in catering for its strength and  resistance to chemicals and  stains.

Q: Can I place very hot plates directly onto the tray?

A: It is designed for standard serving temperatures. We advise against placing items straight from an oven onto it to ensure the tray's longevity.

Q: How much does the tray weigh on its own?

A: It weighs just 1.19kg, making it lightweight and  easy for staff to handle throughout a long shift.

Q: Will the black colour fade or scratch off?

A: The colour is integral to the material itself, not painted on, so it's highly resistant to fading and  scratching from normal, everyday use.

Q: Are these suitable for outdoor use in a beer garden?

A: Absolutely. The polypropylene material is robust and  weather-resistant, making it perfect for outdoor service.

Q: How do you recommend I clean it after service?

A: A simple wash with warm water, a bit of washing-up liquid, and  a soft cloth is all that's needed to keep it clean and  hygienic.

How the Non-Slip Surface Grips Without Stickiness

Ever wondered how a 'non-slip' surface actually works? It’s not a sticky coating that can wear off. Instead, the Kristallon C560 has a fine, textured pattern moulded directly into the polypropylene during manufacturing. This creates a clever, high-friction surface that works brilliantly to prevent items from sliding.

Think of it like the tread on a brand-new tyre. It's not gluey, but the pattern is designed to create thousands of tiny grip points. When you place a glass with condensation on this tray, the texture helps to channel away the moisture and  gives the base of the glass something physical to hold onto. It’s this smart, simple engineering that stops that dreaded, heart-stopping slide across the tray.
