  • Outstanding Durability: This spoon will likely outlast every other piece of plastic cutlery you own.
  • Basic Feel: It lacks the premium weight and  feel of stainless steel for fine dining.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

A busy community leisure centre in Cardiff was constantly replacing flimsy plastic cutlery in its café, creating unnecessary waste and  expense. They needed a robust, reusable solution that could handle hundreds of daily customers, including children's parties.

"We were fed up with broken cutlery and  the sheer volume of plastic waste. Switching to these Kristallon spoons has been fantastic. They've been dropped, thrown in the dishwasher countless times, and  still look brand new. They are tough as old boots!"

Robert Davies – Café Manager

The switch resulted in a 90% reduction in their cutlery re-ordering budget and  completely eliminated their single-use spoon consumption within three months.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon arrival, give the spoons a quick check to ensure all are present and  correct.
  • Wash thoroughly in a dishwasher or by hand with warm, soapy water before their first use.
  • That's it! They are ready to be put straight into service.

Keeping It Going

  • These spoons are fully commercial dishwasher safe for easy cleaning.
  • To prolong their life, avoid direct contact with extreme heat sources like an oven element or open flame.
  • While stain-resistant, rinse off highly pigmented foods like curry or tomato sauce before washing.
  • For clinical environments, these spoons can be safely sterilised using an autoclave.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Canteen Cutlery

Need a hand picking the perfect cutlery for your setup? Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Material vs. Use

Polycarbonate, like this Kristallon DL122 catering spoon, is king for durability and  safety in casual or high-risk settings. For a more formal dining experience, you might consider stainless steel.

Consider Your Customer

Who will be using the cutlery? Lightweight, unbreakable spoons are ideal for children, festival-goers, and  care home residents, ensuring safety and  ease of use.

Hygiene Requirements

Does your environment demand the highest level of cleanliness? Look for materials that are not only dishwasher safe but also sterilisable or autoclavable for peace of mind.

The Power of Colour

Don't underestimate colour! It can be used to brighten up a dining hall, reinforce your brand identity, or, most importantly, implement a colour-coded system to prevent allergen cross-contamination.

Cost Over Time

While the initial outlay for durable reusables is higher than for a pack of disposables, the long-term savings are significant. A spoon that lasts for years is far more economical.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are these spoons flexible or completely rigid?

A: They are very rigid and  sturdy, but have enough flex in the polycarbonate material to prevent them from snapping under pressure.

Q: Can I use this spoon for serving very hot soup?

A: Absolutely. They are rated safe for use with foods and  liquids up to 100°C, making them perfect for soups, stews, and  hot drinks.

Q: Will the red colour fade or leach out after many washes?

A: No, the colour is stable within the polycarbonate and  is designed to withstand repeated commercial dishwashing without fading.

Q: Are they suitable for children to use?

A: Yes, they are an excellent choice for children as they are lightweight, easy to handle, and  virtually unbreakable, making them very safe.

Q: What does 'autoclavable' mean?

A: It means the spoons can be sterilised in an autoclave, which uses high-pressure steam to kill bacteria and  viruses, making them suitable for clinical or hygiene-critical environments.

Q: Can I use these to stir food in a pot on the stove?

A: We don't recommend it. While heat resistant up to 100°C, they should not be exposed to direct heat sources like a hot pan or hob, which can exceed this temperature and  cause damage.

Q: How many spoons come in one pack?

A: These are sold in a convenient box of 12 spoons.

Q: Is polycarbonate BPA-free?

A: Modern food-safe polycarbonate used in high-quality catering products like this is manufactured to meet European safety standards, which includes being BPA-free.

What Makes Polycarbonate So Tough?

Think of polycarbonate as the superhero of plastics. It belongs to the same family of tough polymers used to make things like motorcycle helmets and  safety goggles. Unlike standard, brittle plastic that shatters on impact, polycarbonate has an incredible ability to flex and  absorb energy, which is why it's often described as 'virtually unbreakable'. When you drop a Kristallon spoon, it won’t crack or send sharp fragments flying. This molecular resilience is what allows it to withstand the daily rigours of a commercial dishwasher, clumsy hands, and  constant use, giving you a much safer and  longer-lasting product.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Schools & Nurseries: A safe, unbreakable, and  colourful option for serving meals to children of all ages.
  • Hospitals & Care Homes: The sterilisable material makes this ideal for environments where hygiene and  safety are paramount.
  • Outdoor & Event Caterers: A lightweight, durable alternative to disposables for festivals, food trucks, and  mobile catering.
  • Workplace Canteens: A cost-effective, heavy-duty commercial polycarbonate dining spoon for high-traffic staff dining areas.
