Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Corner Pantry, a bustling café in Chester, was tired of constantly replacing chipped and cracked side plates from their previous supplier, which was becoming a noticeable recurring cost.
"We were getting through so many plates it was becoming a real hidden expense. We needed something that looked smart but could handle a busy lunch service, day in, day out. These Olympia plates have been absolutely brilliant."
David Chen – Owner
The result? Since switching to the Olympia FW812 plates six months ago, the café has seen a 95% reduction in breakages and hasn't needed to replace a single plate due to chipping.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon arrival, give all plates a quick wash in warm, soapy water to remove any dust from transit.
- The 150mm size is designed to stack neatly and safely with other Olympia flat round plates (like the CK070).
- There's no complex setup – they are ready for service straight out of the box after a quick clean.
Keeping It Going
- These plates are fully commercial dishwasher safe for easy, hygienic cleaning after a busy service.
- To maintain the glaze, avoid using abrasive scourers like steel wool which can cause fine scratches over time.
- The vitrified body resists staining, but it's good practice to rinse off strong-coloured sauces if plates will be sitting for a while.
- While incredibly tough, try to avoid dropping them from height or exposing them to extreme and sudden temperature changes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What exactly does 'fully vitrified' mean?
A: It refers to a high-temperature firing process that makes the porcelain non-porous (so it doesn't absorb water or smells), much stronger, and more chip-resistant than standard ceramic.
Q: Are these plates really covered by a lifetime edge-chip warranty?
A: Yes, the Olympia FW812 plates are covered by the manufacturer's Lifetime Edge-Chip Warranty, which is a testament to their exceptional durability.
Q: Can I use these plates in a commercial microwave or oven?
A: Absolutely. They are designed from the ground up to be safe for use in commercial ovens, microwaves, and even freezers, giving you maximum kitchen versatility.
Q: How many plates come in one pack?
A: This product is sold as a box containing six small commercial serving plates.
Q: What is the exact diameter of these plates?
A: The plates have a diameter of 150mm, which is approximately 6 inches, ideal for sides or starters.
Q: Are they heavy?
A: They have a reassuring, professional weight without being overly heavy. The entire box of 6 weighs 1.88kg, making them easy to handle in stacks.
Q: Will they stain with things like balsamic glaze or tomato-based sauces?
A: The glazed, vitrified surface is highly resistant to staining and does not absorb odours or flavours, ensuring they stay brilliantly white.
Q: Are the edges reinforced in any way?
A: Yes, they feature durable 'rolled edges', which are specifically shaped to minimise the chance of chipping during busy service, washing, and stacking.

Explore more from OlympiaWhat Does 'Fully Vitrified' Actually Mean for Your Kitchen?
You often see 'fully vitrified' on professional crockery, but what is it? Think of it like turning standard pottery into something much more like glass. During the manufacturing process, the porcelain is fired at an incredibly high temperature, which causes the material to become non-porous and extremely dense. For you, this means it won't absorb water, flavours, or odours—a massive plus for hygiene. More importantly, this process is what makes the plates significantly stronger and far more resistant to the chipping and cracking that plagues standard earthenware in a busy commercial kitchen. It's the secret ingredient that gives professional tableware its long-lasting toughness.
Who Should Buy This?
- Bustling Cafés: Perfect for serving slices of cake, scones, or as reliable white cafe side plates for breakfasts.
- Hotels & Bistros: An ideal choice for bread rolls, appetisers, or small starters, matching any style of decor.
- Pubs & Bars: Great for presenting bar snacks, tapas, or side portions in a professional, durable way.
- Canteens & Contract Caterers: The robust build and stackable design are essential for high-volume service environments.
