The deep grey colour provides a sophisticated backdrop that complements diverse culinary styles. Chefs appreciate the flat central area and subtly curved edge, which allow complex dishes to take centre stage. You can deploy these 280mm dishes at formal gala dinners, award ceremonies, and corporate networking lunches. They also suit menu tastings at wedding receptions.
The high-quality ceramic material resists chipping and scratching during busy service periods. This tableware maintains its pristine appearance across multiple courses. It withstands frequent handling by waiting staff and kitchen porters.
Catering large events requires logistical planning, so we apply our "Send It Back Dirty" policy to all crockery orders. Your team can return the items unwashed after the event, saving valuable time during the breakdown phase. Every order also features a free minor damage waiver to cover accidental breakages. No other UK hire company offers this waiver at no extra cost.
This 280mm plate forms part of our Graphite crockery hire range. You can match it with coordinating bowls and side plates to create a cohesive dining setup.
