Full details

FAQs
Are these plates microwave safe?
These plates are designed for short-term food service and are generally not intended for extended microwave use. Use at your own discretion.
What is the exact diameter of the plate?
Each plate measures 178mm in diameter.
Are these plates recyclable?
Recyclability depends on local facility guidelines, as soiled paper products are often excluded from standard recycling streams.
Can I serve soup on these?
No, these are standard paper plates and are not intended for hot liquids or soups, as they will quickly lose structural integrity.
How many plates come in a case?
This product comes in a bulk pack of 1000 plates.
Troubleshooting
Plates sticking together
Gently fan the stack or tap the sides of the pile against a flat surface to introduce air between the plates before placing them on the serving line.
Plate bending under food weight
If serving heavier items, double-stack two plates to increase rigidity and prevent spills.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up for your event is straightforward; simply store the stack in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture absorption. Before service, ensure the stack is placed on a stable, flat surface to prevent tipping. While no special care is needed, it is recommended to keep them in their original packaging until use to maintain hygiene standards. They are compatible with standard flatware and are meant for immediate disposal after the meal is complete.
