Plastic dinnerware

Plastic dinnerware in bulk for restaurants, caterers, event suppliers, retail chains and importers: plates, bowls, cups and cutlery at wholesale quantities, in stock sizes and colours or made to your own specification, with OEM and private-label options.

What we supply. Plates in PP and PS for dinner, dessert and party use — sizes, grams per piece and rim options are set out in the heavy-duty plates guide. Bowls for soup, salad and dessert. Cups and drinkware including 9 oz party cups, coffee cups with gold or silver trim and cold cups with lids — lid fitment is explained in cup and lid rim diameter. Cutlery in PS and PP, bulk or pre-packed (plastic cutlery). Party sets that combine plate, cup, napkin and cutlery for one theme — see party tableware sets and colour matching.

Material choice. PP, PS and PET differ on heat tolerance, breakage behaviour, clarity and cost; the comparison is in PP vs PS vs PET dinnerware. We make no PVC dinnerware. Food-contact documentation and the questions worth putting to any supplier are covered in food-contact materials, with the wider overview on tableware materials.

Sizes, colours and packing. Standard plate diameters run from 4 in to 12 in and bowl capacities from about 8 oz to 44 oz; how to choose sizes and portions is in disposable plates and bowls by size. Colours are matched across plates, bowls, cups, cutlery and tablecloths, so a full set can ship in one carton. Packing is quoted as pack count per carton with carton dimensions and gross weight, so freight can be costed before you commit.

OEM and private label. Dinnerware can be supplied under your own brand, with colour matching to a reference, custom pack counts, printed sleeves and cartons, and mixed containers that combine dinnerware with tablecloths, napkins and cutlery. See OEM and ODM tableware and sourcing solutions.

Ordering, MOQ and lead time. MOQ is set per item rather than per order, and stock items start lower than custom colours. Samples can be sent for evaluation, and custom work runs an approval sample that defines the specification for production. Lead time is quoted per line from deposit and confirmed artwork, and seasonal programmes are planned backwards from your in-store date. Terms are FOB, CIF or delivered, with the port and what is included stated on the quotation — the full picture is on how we quote.

Questions buyers ask. Can plates, cups, cutlery and tablecloths ship together? Yes, and most parties do — mixed cartons reduce freight per item. What is the minimum order? It depends on the item and whether it is a stock line or a custom colour; the exact per-item MOQ comes back on the quotation. Can you match our colours and pack? Yes — send a colour reference and the pack count you sell in, and we confirm what can be matched before quoting. How do I get a price? Send the item list, quantities, pack requirements and destination port through the contact form.
