The Olympia Kristallon Fairground bowls are a melamine alternative to traditional china, designed for catering environments where durability and safety are a higher priority than fine dining presentation. The distinctive colourful patterned rim gives them a recognisable character without being garish, making them a practical choice where cheerful, robust tableware is appropriate.
Melamine performs well in high-turnover settings because it resists chipping and cracking under the kind of repeated handling that would quickly degrade standard ceramic. It is also considerably lighter than china, which matters in environments where staff are handling large quantities of covers or where service is carried out by people who may struggle with heavier crockery.
These bowls are commonly used in:
- School canteens and education catering
- Care homes and assisted living facilities
- Staff restaurants and welfare catering
- Outdoor and event catering where breakage risk is high
It is worth noting that melamine is not suitable for microwave use, and prolonged exposure to very high temperatures can affect the surface over time. It is dishwasher safe under normal commercial conditions, though aggressive detergents used at high frequency may dull the finish over extended periods.
This pack of twelve suits smaller operations or those looking to supplement an existing set. For higher-volume sites running multiple sittings, larger pack quantities are worth considering to keep pace with dishwasher turnaround.
If you are equipping a new facility or refreshing tableware across a large site, it is worth speaking with us about quantities and mix before ordering — we are happy to help you work out what you actually need.
