About Our Dinner Plates
AMERICAN-MADE DINNER PLATES FOR PROFESSIONAL FOODSERVICE
The dinner plate is the foundation of every table setting and the surface on which every dish is judged. In professional foodservice, it must perform under conditions that consumer dinnerware cannot survive: thermal shock from commercial dishwashers running at 180F, repeated stacking and handling by kitchen staff, and thousands of service cycles without visible wear.
HF Coors commercial dinner plates are manufactured from a high-alumina vitrified ceramic body fired at 2,380F, producing a plate that is denser, less porous, and more chip-resistant than standard porcelain. Every plate is certified lead-free, cadmium-free, and rated for commercial dishwasher use.

The Standard
WHY DINNER PLATE SELECTION MATTERS IN COMMERCIAL FOODSERVICE
A dinner plate is not a commodity. It is the primary presentation surface for your culinary program, and the piece of tableware your guests interact with most directly. The wrong plate chips within months, stains from repeated use, and degrades under commercial wash cycles.
The right plate maintains its surface integrity, resists thermal shock, and presents consistently across thousands of covers. HF Coors dinner plates are specified by chef-driven restaurants, hotel dining programs, and institutional foodservice operations that cannot tolerate replacement cycles driven by breakage and wear.

Common Questions
DINNER PLATES FAQS
What sizes of commercial dinner plates does HF Coors offer?
HF Coors manufactures commercial dinner plates in sizes ranging from 6.5 inches to 12 inches in diameter. Standard sizes include 6.5 inch, 7.5 inch, 9 inch, 10.5 inch, and 12 inch. Custom sizes can be developed through our Bespoke program for operations with specific plating requirements.
Are HF Coors dinner plates safe for commercial dishwashers?
Yes. Every HF Coors dinner plate is rated for commercial dishwasher use at temperatures up to 180F. The vitrified ceramic body and high-fired glaze resist degradation from repeated high-temperature wash cycles, maintaining surface quality over thousands of cycles.
What edge profiles are available for commercial dinner plates?
HF Coors offers multiple edge profiles including rolled edge for stacking durability, narrow rim for a classic presentation, wide rim for fine dining plating, and coupe (rimless) for modern culinary aesthetics. Each profile is available across all standard sizes.
Can HF Coors dinner plates be customized with a restaurant logo?
Yes. HF Coors offers logo imprinting on all standard dinner plate shapes. Logos are applied under the glaze and fired at full temperature, making them permanent and dishwasher-safe. Proprietary glaze colors and fully custom shapes are also available.
How do HF Coors dinner plates compare to imported commercial plates?
HF Coors dinner plates are fired at 2,380F compared to 1,800 to 2,200F for typical imports. This higher firing temperature produces a denser, less porous body with superior chip resistance. All HF Coors plates are certified lead-free and cadmium-free, manufactured in Tucson, Arizona, and available with 2 to 4 week lead times versus 8 to 16 weeks for imports.
What is the minimum order quantity for commercial dinner plates?
HF Coors does not impose high minimum order quantities on standard catalog items. For custom programs including logo imprinting, signature glazes, or bespoke shapes, minimums vary by program level. Contact our commercial team for specific program details.
