How Super Vitrified Black Line Tableware Works
Super Vitrified tableware gets its exceptional properties through an advanced firing process where clay bodies are heated to extreme temperatures (over 1200°C)—creating a glass-like, non-porous surface that bonds with the black coloration. This super-vitrification process eliminates the microscopic pores where bacteria might hide, making it more hygienic than standard ceramics. The result? Black Line pieces that resist chips, cracks, and thermal shock when moving between freezer and hot lamps. The smooth, sealed surface prevents moisture absorption and staining, so your elegant black tableware maintains its rich colour and pristine appearance even after years of intensive commercial use.

Top Tips for Using Super Vitrified Black Line Tableware
To maintain your Black Line collection's striking appearance, we recommend using microfibre cloths for final buffing to prevent water spots and fingerprints that show more prominently on black surfaces. Though incredibly durable, avoid metal scourers that can dull the finish—stick with non-abrasive cleaning tools. For dramatic food presentation, consider lighter-coloured foods that create striking contrast, and pair with high-quality napkins and cutlery for a cohesive premium feel across your table settings.
