How to choose the right Plates and Cutlery
- Match plate size and depth to your menu items, from small sides and desserts to full main courses.
- Choose materials such as bagasse, moulded fibre, paper or foil based on heat resistance and presentation needs.
- Consider eco credentials, opting for compostable or recyclable options to align with your sustainability goals.
- Plan for service style, selecting sturdy plates and cutlery for takeaway and outdoor events where support is limited.
- Check pack sizes and storage space so you can hold enough stock for peak periods without overcrowding your storeroom.
- Coordinate plates, bowls, lids and stirrers to create a consistent look across your food and drink offering.
Care and maintenance
- Store disposable plates and cutlery in a cool, dry area away from moisture and direct sunlight to prevent warping.
- Keep cartons sealed until needed to protect items from dust, pests and kitchen contaminants.
- Rotate stock using a first-in, first-out system so packaging and coatings remain in good condition.
- For foil containers and plates, avoid crushing stacks to maintain rigidity and leak resistance.
- Provide clearly labelled waste and compost bins so staff and customers can dispose of items correctly.
- Train staff on which products are compostable or recyclable to support your waste management procedures.
