The best materials for your dinner plates

Keep an eye out for the different materials our dinner plates are made out of, which include:

• Ceramic: Our ceramic dinner plates tend to be split between two styles, stoneware and porcelain. Stoneware has a matte finish, is thick and durable and feels heavy like true stone. Porcelain is thin, light and often translucent, and is usually decorated with beautiful and intricate designs. Both come in a great range of colours and patterns!
• Melamine: This resin-based material creates a hard, durable plate that is easy to clean. Its resistance to breaking and easy washing makes it a favourite for families with young children.
• Polypropylene: Light and durable, plates made from polypropylene are great for picnics, outdoor eating and other forms of casual dining. They can be reused and washed, but are also recyclable for when you're finished using them.

Dinner plate FAQ

What are dinner plates?

Dinner plates are moderately-sized, flat plates used for eating meals, no matter the time of day. They are designed for repeat use, and so should be durable and easy to both hand and machine wash after every use.

How big are dinner plates?

Dinner plates can come in a variety of sizes, but the most common size is a 25cm diameter. They can be as large as 30cm, although once they get too small, like 20cm, they become more of a dessert or salad plate.

How do I clean dinner plates?

Almost all dinner plates are designed to be washed in a dishwasher - as one of the most-used pieces of dinnerware, you'll be washing them several times a week. More delicate plates that scratch easily should be hand washed instead.
