Matfer Bourgeat Exoglass Sieve Strainer 200mm

The Matfer Bourgeat Exoglass Sieve Strainer is a 200mm professional kitchen sieve combining a heat-resistant Exoglass frame with a fine triple-layer stainless steel mesh. The triple-layer construction gives a noticeably finer and more consistent filtration than single-mesh alternatives, making it a practical choice for finishing sauces, stocks, custards, and similar preparations where clarity and texture matter.

Exoglass is a composite material developed specifically for professional kitchen use. It handles high temperatures and repeated dishwasher cycles without warping, cracking, or absorbing flavours and odours — common failure points with nylon or wooden-handled sieves in high-throughput kitchens. The stainless steel mesh maintains its tension and shape under repeated use, which is not always the case with cheaper pressed-mesh sieves that can distort with regular forcing.

In practical terms, this sieve earns its place in any kitchen where quality of finish matters:

• Triple-layer mesh delivers fine, consistent filtration for sauces and stocks
• Exoglass frame withstands repeated high-temperature use without degrading
• Dishwasher safe — resists warping and odour absorption through repeated cycles
• Lightweight at 357g, reducing fatigue during prolonged straining tasks
• Stainless steel mesh holds its shape under normal forcing and pressing

At 200mm this is a mid-size sieve suited to à la carte and small-batch production. It works well for individual portions or finishing smaller quantities. Kitchens producing large volumes of sauce or stock in one pass may find a larger-diameter sieve more practical for the task.

If you are unsure whether this size suits your production volumes or you are looking to build out a set of sieves for different applications, we are happy to help you work through the options.
