Whiteware

Whiteware Crockery is the classic choice for professional dining rooms, cafes and hotels that want clean, timeless presentation. This range covers plates, bowls, mugs, cups, saucers, jugs, teapots, roasters and specialist dishes for hot and cold service. Ideal for restaurants, coffee shops, hotels and contract catering, it delivers a neutral backdrop that lets your food and drinks stand out. Strong vitrified construction and a bright white glaze support hygiene, durability and fast, efficient service in busy Irish venues.

• Comprehensive selection of plates, bowls, mugs, cups and saucers for everyday table service.
• Specialist pieces including milk and cream jugs, sugar bowls, teapots and soy dishes for hot beverage and Asian service.
• Oven-safe lasagne dishes and eared roasters for cooking, baking and direct-to-table presentation.
• Stackable designs that save space on shelves and in plate racks while speeding up service.
• Classic white finish that suits casual cafes, fine dining restaurants, hotels and banqueting.
• Hardwearing commercial-grade porcelain designed to withstand frequent washing and heavy use.

How to choose the right Whiteware Crockery

• Match plate and bowl sizes to your menu portions so dishes look full without wasting food or table space.
• Consider cup and mug capacities for espresso, cappuccino, lattes and teas to suit your drinks menu.
• Choose oven-safe dishes and roasters if you plan to cook, bake or reheat food and serve straight to the table.
• Check stackability and storage footprint to ensure your shelves, plate racks and dishwashers can handle peak service.
• Select shapes and ranges that complement your existing crockery, cutlery and table presentation style.
• For high-volume sites, prioritise heavy-duty vitrified porcelain that resists chipping and thermal shock.

Care and maintenance

• Wash whiteware crockery promptly after service to prevent staining from coffee, tea, sauces and oils.
• Use commercial dishwasher detergents approved for porcelain and avoid overly harsh or abrasive chemicals.
• Stack plates, bowls and cups carefully, using plate racks where possible to reduce chipping and edge damage.
• Avoid sudden temperature shocks by not moving items directly from freezer to oven or from oven to cold water.
• Inspect regularly for chips or cracks and remove damaged pieces from service to maintain safety and presentation.
• Periodically use de-staining or soak solutions to keep the glaze bright and maintain a consistent white finish.

Pair your whiteware with complementary plates, bowls, glassware, cutlery and table presentation ranges to complete your front-of-house setup.
