Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Ridings School in Leeds was constantly replacing metal cutlery that went missing or was damaged and  wanted a more sustainable, budget-friendly option for their 1,500 students.

"We switched to the Olympia Kristallon range and  the difference was immediate. They're colourful, the students find them easy to use, and  our replacement costs have plummeted. They just don't break, no matter what the kids throw at them!"

David Chen – Catering Manager

The school reported an 85% reduction in annual cutlery replacement costs and  a significant decrease in canteen waste.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Give them a good wash in warm, soapy water or run them through a dishwasher cycle before first use.
  • If you're colour-coding your kitchen, assign specific colours to different food types (e.g., green for vegetarian) and  brief your staff.
  • Stack them neatly in cutlery trays or dispensers for easy access in your self-service area.

Keeping It Going

  • While dishwasher safe, avoid using abrasive scouring pads as they may scratch the surface over time.
  • Always keep the cutlery away from direct heat sources like open flames or oven hobs to prevent damage.
  • Check periodically for any deep gouges that could be difficult to clean, and  replace if necessary.
  • For sterilisation, simply follow your autoclave's standard cycle for plastic instruments.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Cutlery

Not sure what cutlery fits your business best? Here are a few things to consider before you buy.

Consider Your Customers

Who is using the cutlery? For schools, care homes, or prisons, lightweight, shatterproof plastic like this is ideal for safety. For fine dining, you'll want polished stainless steel.

Think About Waste & Costs

Are you trying to reduce your environmental impact and  overheads? A reusable green plastic fork is a huge step up from single-use disposables, saving both money and  landfill space.

Hygiene is Key

If you're in healthcare or another sensitive setting, look for materials that can be fully sterilised or autoclaved, like this polypropylene fork, to ensure maximum cleanliness.

The Power of Colour

Coloured cutlery isn't just for fun. It's a brilliant and  simple tool for preventing allergen cross-contamination, for example, by using specific colours for different dietary needs.

Balance Price and  Durability

While disposables seem cheap initially, the cost adds up quickly. Investing in a durable option like the Kristallon DL120 fork means a higher initial outlay but significant long-term savings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this fork really unbreakable?

A: It's made from highly durable polypropylene, making it 'virtually' unbreakable under normal, everyday use. It is designed to bend rather than snap and  will not shatter like standard plastic.

Q: Can I use this for very hot food, like soup?

A: Yes, it's rated for safe use with foods and  liquids up to 100°C, so it's perfectly fine for serving hot meals, soups, and  drinks.

Q: Will the green colour fade in a commercial dishwasher?

A: No, the colour is integral to the material itself, not a coating. It's designed to remain vibrant through countless high-temperature dishwasher cycles.

Q: Is it a good size for children to use?

A: Absolutely. Its 17cm length, light weight, and  shatterproof design make it a much safer and  easier-to-handle option for schools and  nurseries than heavier metal cutlery.

Q: What does 'microwave safe for reheating' actually mean?

A: It means you can safely use the fork to heat a plate of food in a microwave. It is not, however, intended for primary cooking in a combination or conventional oven.

Q: How many forks are in one pack?

A: This product, SKU DL120, is sold in a convenient box of 12 forks.

Q: The name says polycarbonate but the material is polypropylene. What's the difference?

A: They are slightly different plastics, but both are chosen for their exceptional durability. This fork uses polypropylene for its great balance of toughness, heat resistance, and  flexibility.

Q: Do they stack neatly for storage?

A: Yes, they are designed to nest together, allowing them to be stacked compactly in cutlery trays and  drawers to save valuable space.

What Makes This Fork So Incredibly Tough?

You see 'Polypropylene' listed in the specs and  might just think 'plastic', but it's a bit more clever than that. Think of it like a super-durable, flexible material that refuses to crack under pressure. Unlike brittle plastics that snap when bent, polypropylene can flex and  return to its shape, which is why this durable polycarbonate fork is virtually unbreakable. It's the same kind of resilient polymer used in rugged toolboxes and  even car parts. This means it can handle being dropped on a hard floor, chucked in a washing basket, and  used day after day without showing signs of stress, making it the perfect material for the toughest catering environments.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Schools & Universities: A safe, durable, and  colourful alternative to metal cutlery for busy canteens.
  • Hospitals & Care Homes: Easy to sterilise and  lightweight, meeting strict hygiene and  patient safety needs.
  • Outdoor Caterers & Events: A reusable, cost-effective solution that eliminates disposable waste at festivals and  functions.
  • Prisons & Secure Facilities: The tough, shatter-resistant design provides a safer cutlery option in high-security environments.
