  • Pros: A truly robust tray that withstands drops and  constant washing without warping.
  • Cons: The textured surface can take an extra moment to wipe completely dry.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Pier Café in Brighton was struggling with flimsy trays that cracked easily and  stained, making their busy seaside service look untidy. They needed a more durable solution that could handle constant use and  salt-air exposure.

"We switched to the Kristallon DP213 trays six months ago and  the difference is night and  day. They still look brand new despite being used hundreds of times a day. Our wash-up time has genuinely decreased because they're so easy to clean."

Ben Carter – Owner

The café has seen a 90% reduction in tray replacements and  reports a faster table turnover thanks to quicker clearing and  cleaning.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Unpack the trays from the delivery box.
  • Give them a quick wash with warm, soapy water or run them through a dishwasher cycle before first use.
  • Stack them in a clean, dry, and  easy-to-access area near your service point.
  • That's it! They're ready for service.

Keeping It Going

  • For best results, rinse off heavy food debris before placing in the dishwasher.
  • Wipe up any spills promptly to keep them looking their best.
  • Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals, as they can scratch the surface.
  • Regularly check for any signs of damage and  replace if a tray becomes cracked or broken to maintain hygiene standards.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Food Tray

Not sure which tray is the perfect fit for your business? Here are a few things to keep in mind to help you decide.

Size & Shape

Consider what you're serving. A small 345mm plastic serving tray is great for snacks and  drinks, but you might need a larger one for full plated meals. Measure your plates to ensure a good fit.

Material Matters

Polypropylene is a fantastic all-rounder: it's durable, lightweight, and  easy to clean. For a more premium feel, you might look at fibreglass, but for high-turnover environments, polypropylene is hard to beat.

Stackability

If space is tight (and when isn't it?), check that the trays are designed to stack neatly without sticking together. This is a massive space-saver for storage and  transport.

Surface Grip

A smooth tray might look sleek, but a textured or non-slip surface is a practical hero. It helps prevent glasses and  plates from sliding around, reducing spills and  breakages.

Colour & Branding

Colour can be more than just looks. You can use different coloured trays to signify different dietary requirements (e.g., green for veggie) or to simply match your brand's aesthetic.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are these trays flexible or completely rigid?

A: They are made from sturdy polypropylene, so they are very rigid and  designed to resist flexing, even when carrying a full, heavy meal.

Q: Can the Kristallon DP213 tray hold a hot plate from a microwave or oven?

A: Yes, they are designed to handle hot plates as you would find in a typical canteen or fast-food service. They are heat resistant for normal food service temperatures.

Q: Does the red colour fade after many washes?

A: The colour is integrated into the polypropylene material, making it very resistant to fading from regular commercial dishwashing.

Q: Will strong-smelling foods like curry leave a scent on the tray?

A: Thanks to the non-porous material, the trays are odour-resistant. A standard wash is enough to remove any lingering food smells.

Q: Do they become slippery when wet?

A: The textured surface is specifically designed to provide grip for crockery, even when the tray itself is damp.

Q: How many trays can you comfortably stack?

A: They are designed for efficient stacking. You can easily stack 20-30 high without them becoming unstable, depending on your storage space.

Q: Are the corners sharp?

A: No, the trays feature rounded corners for safety and  to make them easier and  quicker to wipe clean.

Q: Do things like tomato sauce or mustard stain the surface?

A: The polypropylene is stain-resistant. As long as spills are cleaned in a timely manner, they won't leave permanent marks.

How a Non-Porous Surface Keeps Your Service Hygienic

Ever noticed how some plastic items get a bit smelly or stained over time? That’s because they're 'porous', meaning they have microscopic holes that can trap food particles, liquids, and  odours. The Kristallon DP213 tray, however, is made from non-porous polypropylene. Think of it like the difference between a raincoat and  a woolly jumper. Rain (or a spilt drink) will bead up and  roll right off the raincoat, but it'll soak straight into the jumper.

This non-porous quality means curry sauces, tomato ketchup, and  coffee spills can't seep into the material. They simply sit on the surface until they're wiped or washed away. This not only prevents stubborn stains and  lingering smells but also makes the tray far more hygienic, as there's nowhere for bacteria to hide and  multiply. It's a simple feature that has a huge impact on food safety and  keeping your equipment looking professional for longer.

Who Should Buy This?

  • School & University Canteens: Perfect for handling high volumes of daily student traffic with its robust, easy-clean design.
  • Fast Food Restaurants: The ideal small red restaurant tray for serving up meal deals quickly and  efficiently.
  • Workplace Cafeterias: A durable and  stackable solution for busy office lunch hours, keeping service organised and  swift.
  • Food Courts & Service Stations: A reliable choice for self-service environments where durability and  ease of carrying are essential.
