- Aesthetic Wear: Like all metal barware, it will inevitably show surface scratches with heavy use.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Queen's Arms, a historic pub in the heart of Cardiff, was struggling with frequent drink spills during its packed weekend evenings. Their old, smooth-surfaced trays were causing accidents, leading to lost revenue and a messy service area.
"These Beaumont trays immediately sorted out our problem. The team are so much more confident weaving through a crowded bar with a full tray now. The drop in breakages has been brilliant, and the bar floor is staying much cleaner and safer."
Michael Davies – General Manager
The pub reported an 80% reduction in dropped drinks and broken glassware within the first two weeks of use, significantly improving operational flow.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon delivery, remove all packaging.
- Before its first use, give the tray a good wash with warm, soapy water.
- Rinse and dry it thoroughly with a soft cloth.
Keeping It Going
- Always wipe clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent after service.
- Important: This tray is not suitable for commercial dishwashers as high heat can damage the non-slip surface.
- Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals, which can scratch the aluminium and the grip coating.
- Stack carefully with other trays to prevent unnecessary scratches and dinks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this drinks tray dishwasher safe?
A: No, we strongly advise against putting it in a commercial dishwasher. The high temperatures and harsh detergents can degrade the non-slip surface over time. A simple wipe with a soapy cloth is all it needs.
Q: How do you recommend cleaning the non-slip surface?
A: Use a soft cloth with warm water and a mild detergent. Avoid abrasive sponges or scouring pads as they can damage the grip and scratch the tray.
Q: What is the tray made from?
A: The main body of the tray is lightweight and durable aluminium, while the grip surface is a specially bonded, high-friction PS plastic.
Q: How heavy is the tray by itself?
A: It's very light, weighing just 0.41kg, which helps reduce staff fatigue during long shifts.
Q: Can these trays be stacked for storage?
A: Yes, they stack neatly to save space. We recommend careful stacking to minimise scratches to the surface.
Q: What is the actual diameter of the usable surface?
A: The total diameter is 330mm (approx. 13 inches), providing a generous flat surface for carrying drinks and plates.
Q: Is the silver colour a coating or the raw material?
A: It is the natural finish of the aluminium, giving it a smart, professional, and long-lasting appearance.
Q: How many pint glasses can it typically hold?
A: Depending on the style of glass, it can comfortably and safely hold 3 to 4 pints, making it perfect for serving small groups.
The Beaumont Standard: Reliability Behind the Bar
In the world of professional barware, Beaumont isn't a brand that shouts; it's one that performs. With decades of experience supplying the UK's hospitality trade, they understand that reliability trumps gimmicks every single time. This commercial drinks tray aluminium is a perfect example of that philosophy. It's not designed to be flashy; it's designed to endure the relentless pace of a busy pub, night after night. Investing in a Beaumont tray isn't just about buying a piece of metal; it's about investing in operational smoothness. It means fewer accidents, less money wasted on breakages, and a more confident, efficient service team. This is the long-term value that doesn't show up on a spec sheet—the peace of mind that comes from using a tool that is purpose-built for the job and trusted by professionals across the country.
Explore more from BeaumontWhy a Proper Non-Slip Surface Matters
You might think 'non-slip' just means a layer of rubber, but it’s a bit more clever than that. The surface on the Beaumont tray is a specially formulated, bonded PS plastic designed to create maximum friction. It’s not just sticky; it actively grips the base of a glass.
Think of it like the tread on a performance car tyre in the wet. While a normal surface would let condensation create a slippery film, this material is engineered to maintain its hold. This means your staff can carry a tray of ice-cold drinks with confidence, knowing the glasses won't start hydroplaning towards the edge the moment they pick up speed.
