Product Information
Full details
The Olympia Buckingham Teaspoon is an ideal choice for professional caterers, cafe owners, and hospitality staff looking for a reliable, high-shine cutlery option. Its key benefit lies in the durable 18/0 stainless steel construction, which provides a professional, polished aesthetic while withstanding the rigors of high-volume service. A notable caveat is that the 18/0 grade stainless steel contains no nickel, meaning it requires prompt drying after washing to maintain its luster and prevent water spots.

FAQs
What does 18/0 stainless steel mean?
It refers to the composition of 18% chromium and 0% nickel. This makes the cutlery durable and magnetic, but slightly more prone to corrosion than 18/10 grades if left wet.
Is this teaspoon dishwasher safe?
Yes, it is designed for commercial dishwashers, but you should avoid leaving them in the machine after the cycle is complete.
How long is the teaspoon?
The Olympia Buckingham Teaspoon is 145mm in length.
Can these be used in fine dining settings?
Yes, the highly polished silver finish is versatile enough for most professional dining presentations.
Do I need special cleaning agents?
No, standard high-quality commercial dishwashing detergents are sufficient for maintenance.
Troubleshooting
Water spots appearing on the surface
This is due to mineral content in the water; ensure the spoons are dried immediately with a soft cloth after washing.
Surface dullness over time
Use a professional stainless steel polish or a vinegar-based solution to restore the mirror finish.
Surface rust spots
Ensure they are not being cleaned with steel wool or abrasive brushes, as these damage the protective finish and lead to oxidation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To integrate these teaspoons into your service, ensure you have an adequate storage area for polished flatware to prevent scratching. The spoons are compatible with standard commercial cutlery baskets for dishwashing. To maximize longevity, follow these care steps: 1. Rinse immediately after use to remove acidic food residue. 2. Place in the dishwasher using the correct detergent levels. 3. Remove immediately after the cycle ends to hand-dry with a lint-free cloth. This simple maintenance routine prevents the surface from developing minor surface rust or mineral deposits commonly associated with stainless steel.
