Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Paddock Grill, a popular farm-to-table restaurant in Chester, wanted to switch from plain white crockery to something that better reflected their rustic, locally-sourced menu and ingredients.
"Our old plates were just... boring. The Churchill Stonecast plates feel like they were made for our food. They’re colourful, earthy, and our customers constantly comment on how lovely they are. Plus, they're tough as old boots, which is exactly what we need."
Mark Jennings – Head Chef
The new presentation helped to boost their social media engagement, with a noticeable increase in customers sharing photos of their dishes online.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Before first use, give the plates a thorough wash with warm, soapy water to remove any dust from transit.
- Inspect each plate upon arrival to appreciate the unique hand-finished pattern that makes each one special.
- Ensure your dishwasher racks are suitable for this size to prevent rattling and potential damage during cycles.
- The glazed foot allows for immediate, safe stacking in your storage areas, saving you valuable space.
Keeping It Going
- While fully dishwasher safe, avoid using abrasive scouring pads which can dull the beautiful glaze over time.
- To prevent 'metal marking' (those faint grey lines), try to use good quality 18/10 stainless steel cutlery.
- Stack carefully, even with the protective glazed foot, to maximise the lifespan of your tableware investment.
- Remember, your plates are covered by Churchill's 5-year edge chip warranty for normal food service use.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these plates all identical?
A: No, each Churchill Stonecast plate is finished by hand, so there will be slight, unique variations in the pattern and colour speckle, which adds to their rustic charm.
Q: What does 'super vitrified' mean?
A: It means the ceramic has been fired at a very high temperature to make it non-porous and incredibly strong. This makes it resistant to moisture, stains, and chipping.
Q: What are the exact dimensions?
A: This oval plate measures 197mm at its widest point and 160mm deep (approximately 7.75" x 6.25").
Q: Can these plates handle a commercial dishwasher?
A: Absolutely. They are designed for constant use in busy catering establishments and are completely commercial dishwasher safe.
Q: Will the colour fade over time?
A: The pattern is applied under the final glaze, not on top of it. This process protects the colour and ensures it won't fade, even with thousands of washes.
Q: What is a 'glazed foot'?
A: The base ring of the plate is glazed and smooth. This is a premium feature that prevents it from scratching the surface of other plates when they are stacked.
Q: How many plates come in a box?
A: These plates are supplied in a box of 12.
Q: Can I use these plates in a microwave or oven?
A: Yes, they are microwave safe, making them perfect for reheating. They can also be used for warming in an oven, but are not designed for cooking at high temperatures.
The Churchill Stamp: A Legacy of British Quality
For over 200 years, Churchill has been a cornerstone of the British pottery industry, and that history isn't just a talking point—it's baked into every single plate. Choosing Churchill isn't just about buying crockery; it's an investment in consistency and operational trust. This Stonecast range perfectly marries that rich heritage with modern culinary trends. While the 5-year edge chip warranty gives you immediate peace of mind, the real value comes years down the line when these plates still look fantastic, having survived thousands of services without staining or fading. It’s about reducing long-term replacement costs and maintaining a premium look that reflects the quality of the food you serve, day in, and day out. That's the strategic advantage of choosing a brand trusted by chefs worldwide.
Explore more from ChurchillWhat Does 'Fully Vitrified' Actually Mean for Your Kitchen?
Ever wondered why some ceramic plates chip easily while others seem almost indestructible? The secret is often vitrification. During manufacturing, the ceramic is fired at an extremely high temperature until the clay body becomes glass-like (vitrified). This process makes the stonecast ceramic oval plate non-porous, so it won't absorb water, oils, or odours from food. Think of it like turning a porous sponge into a solid piece of glass – nothing can get in. For your business, this means a stronger, more hygienic plate that's far more resistant to the chips, cracks, and stains that are inevitable in a busy commercial environment.
