Product Information
Full details
The Olympia Heritage Raised Rim Plates are specifically engineered for care environments, focusing on individuals with dementia, mobility challenges, or visual impairments. These durable, vitrified plates feature a deep rim and weighted design to assist with independent eating by making food scooping easier and minimizing mess; however, potential users should note that the 253mm diameter requires adequate table space and storage room compared to standard dinnerware.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these plates suitable for someone with dementia?
Yes, the bright yellow colour is specifically chosen to improve food recognition and contrast, which is highly beneficial for those with cognitive or visual impairments.
Can these be used in a commercial dishwasher?
Yes, the fully vitrified construction is designed to withstand the high temperatures and frequent cycles of industrial and commercial dishwashers.
What is the actual eating surface size?
While the total diameter of the plate is 253mm, the inner eating surface area measures 192mm.
Is the material lead-free and safe for food?
Yes, Olympia Heritage plates are manufactured to professional standards and are safe for direct food contact.
Does the weighted design make it too heavy for elderly users?
The weight is optimized to provide stability without being excessively heavy, striking a balance between ease of use and physical support.
Troubleshooting
Plate sliding on the table surface
Ensure the table surface is dry and clean; if the issue persists, use a non-slip placemat underneath for added grip.
Staining on the surface
Use a standard mild detergent and avoid abrasive scouring pads, which can damage the vitrified glaze over time.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No special setup is required for these plates; they are ready for immediate use. To maintain the integrity of the vitrified ceramic, ensure that the plates are loaded securely in the dishwasher. While they are microwave safe, avoid sudden, extreme temperature changes (thermal shock) to prolong the life of the glaze. When storing, stack the plates carefully to prevent chipping of the raised rim. These plates are compatible with most standard tray sizes used in healthcare facilities.
