How to choose the right Melamine Tableware

  • Match plate and bowl sizes to your menu portions so mains, sides and desserts are well presented without overcrowding.
  • Consider depth and shape of bowls and dipping dishes for soups, salads, snacks and sauces to minimise spills during service.
  • Select colours and styles that complement your existing tableware, buffet displays and brand image front of house.
  • Plan for storage by choosing stackable pieces that fit your shelving, trolleys and dishwashing workflow.
  • Think about where items will be used, such as terraces or outdoor events, and choose windproof ashtrays or heavier pieces where needed.
  • Estimate daily covers and turnover so you order enough packs to maintain service during peak periods.

Care and maintenance

  • Wash melamine tableware with non abrasive detergents and avoid harsh scouring pads that can dull the surface.
  • Follow manufacturer guidance on dishwasher use and temperature limits to prevent warping or discolouration.
  • Avoid direct heat sources such as ovens, grills or salamanders, and do not use melamine in microwave ovens.
  • Inspect regularly for deep scratches or cracks and remove damaged items from service for hygiene and safety.
  • Store plates, bowls and dipping dishes in stable stacks to prevent chipping and make service setup faster.
  • Rotate stock in use so wear is spread evenly across sets, keeping your presentation consistent for guests.

Explore our wider ranges of buffet display, gastronorm pans, food storage and barware to complement your melamine serviceware.
