Food Plates
About this grade

What it is.

Plates live or die on rigidity at the rim. A plate that flexes when it is carried one-handed with a hot meal on it will be remembered for the wrong reason, so wall profile and fibre weight are chosen against the food load rather than the diameter alone.

Plain and compartment formats are both produced. Diameter, compartment layout and barrier requirement are set with you before tooling.

Typical applications — Plain and compartment plates for catering, canteens, events and takeaway
