Diverse Styles & Sizes
Our definitive and versatile collection of plate storage boxes includes the following storage products, all in varied capacities and adjustable dividers for all plate sizes.
Plate Storage Crates
Maximise space efficiency by storing your everyday dishes in a lay-flat or an upright position with our plate storage boxes. This range has a solid-wall box for every plate size, including charger plate storage boxes, making it easy to load and unload plates safely.
Slotted Plate Boxes
For delicate or expensive plates and other chinaware, extra protection is needed. Our slotted plate storage boxes have specially designed individual compartments, providing additional cushioning for these high-value plates. Each box with dividers is available at different heights and comes in two footprints: 600 x 400mm and 400 x 300mm.
Plate Wash & Store Crates
Our "load and go" plate wash and store crates also offer outstanding protection, helping you secure your plates as well as streamline operations. Wash, transport and store a full load of plates in these superb conveyor wash crates to reduce handling significantly and avoid subsequent breakages. This minimum contact solution streamlines the cleaning process, making it perfect for crockery hire companies where efficiency is essential.
Ventilated Plate Crates
Our 600x400mm Euro-ventilated plate storage crates can stack with other Euro containers, keeping your stock centralised. They have ample ventilation slots for easy inventory checks and curved edges for functionality. Euro-ventilated plate storage crates are ideal for outdoor caterers, event-hire companies and event venues.
Universal Plate Boxes
Our transparent universal plate storage boxes help to quickly recognise stock in industrial kitchens. They have click-close lids and removable inserts and can hold up to 200kg of stock. Universal boxes can be used to store food and various sizes of plates and smaller crockery. When not in use, they can be nest-stacked to save storage space.
Dishwasher Plate Racks
Our dishwasher plate racks are part of the Austrian-engineered FRIES Rack System and are ideal for commercial and conveyor dishwashers. You can use these racks to hold both flat dinner plates and deep soup plates simply by rotating the rack 90 degrees.
Robust Design & Material
Our plate storage boxes are extra strong, made with a reinforced base and walls to hold heavy crockery. They feature comfortable grip handles for easy handling and transport. Even when fully loaded with dinner plates, starter plates, side plates, bowls, saucers, charger plates, and many other dishes, our plate crates remain reliable.
Engineered for long-lasting performance, these storage crates can withstand repeated use in demanding environments like the event-hire industry.
Euro-Standard Size Options for Various Plate Sizes
The majority of the boxes in this range are of Euro-standard dimensions that stack with other Euro containers. All sizes of our chinaware storage solutions with a Euro footprint can slot in together, allowing you to organise and manage your plate collection more efficiently.

FAQs About Our Commercial Plate Storage
Be secure in your plate storage box order by reviewing our answers to common questions.
Do I need different plate crates to store various types of plates?
With clever use of customisable insert dividers, you can use the same open container to transport different styles of chinaware, such as saucers and dinner plates.
If you're dealing with large quantities of the same item, as is common in event hire operations, using dedicated crates for each type can improve efficiency. Assigning specific containers to individual plate styles helps streamline packing, transport and setup.
For instance, charger plate storage often doesn’t require compartments, as these are typically made from plastic or metal and are less fragile. In contrast, fine dinnerware benefits from dinner plate storage with individual slotted compartments. Slotted plate boxes will prevent movement and minimise the risk of chipping during transport or storage.
