The magic of Super Vitrified Pavilion Crockery lies in its manufacturing process. These pieces undergo two firing stages—initially at 900°C before receiving a special glaze and a second firing at a scorching 1200°C. This creates a glass-like surface that's bonded with the clay body, making it significantly denser and more resilient than standard porcelain or stoneware. The result? A virtually non-porous surface that resists staining, bacteria growth, and moisture absorption. Even under intense daily use in commercial dishwashers and handling by busy staff, this restaurant-grade tableware maintains its pristine appearance and structural integrity for years—a brilliant investment for any serious hospitality business.

While virtually unbreakable in normal use, maximize your investment by implementing smart handling practices. Use proper storage racks rather than stacking too high, and train staff to handle with care despite the durability. Consider plate warmers for hot food service to enhance the dining experience. Though dishwasher-safe, avoid abrasive cleaners that might dull the glaze over time. Complete the professional look by pairing with quality cutlery and crystal glassware for a cohesive table setting that impresses discerning guests.
Having supplied hospitality tableware for half a century, we've seen what works. 'Super Vitrified Pavilion is the workhorse of fine dining,' notes Emma, our tableware specialist. 'Many of our clients report 3-5 times longer lifespan compared to standard porcelain, making it incredibly cost-effective despite the higher initial investment.'
The Riverside Brasserie in Bath transformed their dining experience after switching to Super Vitrified Pavilion. Before, they were replacing standard porcelain every few months due to chips and cracks, costing them a fortune. 'We invested in the full Pavilion range alongside quality cutlery, and two years later, 95% of our original order is still in perfect nick,' says Head Chef Marcus. 'The consistency in presentation has improved our TripAdvisor ratings, and we've actually saved nearly £2,000 in replacement costs. Best business decision we've made.'
