How to choose the right Steelite Performance Tableware

  • Start by listing the courses you serve most often and select plate and bowl sizes that match your menu, from starters to large mains and sharing dishes.
  • Consider the style of your venue, choosing shapes and rim designs that suit casual cafes, hotel restaurants or fine dining rooms.
  • Check stackability and storage space in your kitchen or wash-up area, especially for high volumes of plates, mugs and bowls.
  • Match mug capacities to your coffee and tea offer, ensuring they work with your saucers, trays and beverage service equipment.
  • Plan for peak service by ordering enough pieces to cover multiple sittings, allowing for breakages and dishwashing turnaround.
  • Look at how Steelite Performance pairs with existing crockery ranges so you can extend or refresh your tableware without a full changeover.

Care and maintenance

  • Wash all items in a commercial dishwasher using catering-grade detergents and follow manufacturer guidelines for temperature and cycle length.
  • Avoid abrasive pads and harsh chemicals on glazed surfaces to reduce the risk of scratching and dulling the finish.
  • Stack plates, bowls and mugs carefully using appropriate racks or plate storage systems to minimise chipping.
  • Allow crockery to cool between oven, microwave or heat lamp use and washing to prevent thermal shock.
  • Inspect regularly for chips or cracks and remove damaged pieces from service to maintain safety and presentation standards.
  • Train staff on correct handling, stacking and transport of tableware, especially during clearing and polishing, to extend product life.
