Yanco NA-109BK Nature Art Melamine 9" x 1" Round Plate

The Yanco NA-109BK Nature Art 9" Round Melamine Plate is a break-resistant dinnerware plate designed for busy restaurant service, catering, and outdoor dining where you want the look of upscale tableware without the fragility of china. Crafted from durable melamine resin, this 9" x 1" plate delivers a modern black surface with a brown accent rim that elevates plated entrées while helping reduce replacement costs in high-traffic food service environments.

Durable Melamine Construction (Built for Commercial Use)

The break-resistant construction helps withstand drops and bumps better than traditional china or porcelain, making it a smart choice for restaurants, hotels, cafes, and buffet lines. Melamine dinnerware is intended for serving—avoid high-heat cooking applications.
