Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Give the plates a thorough wash in a commercial dishwasher before their first use to ensure they're pristine.
  • Take a moment to check each plate upon arrival to appreciate its unique reactive glaze finish.
  • The consistent size and  stackable design allow for easy integration into your existing plate warmers and  storage racks.

Keeping It Going

  • These plates are fully vitrified and  commercial dishwasher safe for fast, hassle-free cleaning.
  • To protect the beautiful glaze, avoid using abrasive metal scourers or harsh cleaning powders.
  • Although incredibly tough, always handle with care to maximise their long lifespan and  prevent drops.
  • Remember, the Lifetime Edge-Chip Warranty provides extra peace of mind against accidental knocks during service.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Tableware

Not sure what fits best? Here are a few key things to consider when choosing your next set of commercial plates.

Size & Portioning

Think about your menu. A 280mm plate like this is a versatile choice, perfect for generous main courses without the food looking lost or the plate seeming overcrowded.

Colour as a Canvas

The plate is the frame for your art. A darker, textured plate like these grey ceramic plates 280mm makes vibrant food colours pop and  adds a touch of drama.

Material Matters

In a commercial setting, durability is non-negotiable. Vitrified porcelain is the industry standard for a reason—it’s non-porous, resistant to thermal shock, and  built to last.

The Feel of Quality

Never underestimate the feel of a plate. A reassuring weight often translates to a feeling of premium quality for the customer, enhancing their overall dining experience.

Shape and  Style

Consider the overall aesthetic. The flat base of these plates is ideal for creative plating, while the embossed rim draws the eye inward to the food itself.

What Makes a 'Reactive Glaze' So Special?

Ever wondered why some pottery has such a deep, unique, and  almost living finish? That's often down to a 'reactive glaze'. Unlike a standard, uniform coating, a reactive glaze is formulated with various minerals and  oxides that behave differently when fired at incredibly high temperatures inside a kiln.

Think of it like a beautiful, natural chemical reaction frozen in time. As the glaze melts and  cools, the elements within it swirl, pool, and  crystallise in unpredictable ways. It’s the reason why no two of these Olympia Corallite dinner plates are exactly identical. You aren’t just getting a set of plates; you're getting a collection of individual, subtly unique pieces of art for your table, adding a layer of authenticity that mass-produced plates simply can't replicate.
