Premium 18/10 Stainless Steel Flatware
Premium flatware is defined by weight, balance, edge finishing and polish, not by the grade stamp alone. Buyers in this segment check every piece in the hand.
We source 18/10 flatware with specified weight and balance, forged or two-piece knives and hand-finished polishing, and inspect it piece by piece against the golden sample.

Inspection follows our five checkpoints — factory audit, pre-production, during production, pre-shipment and loading — against the sealed golden sample. See quality control in India.
Minimums, sampling & private label
Premium patterns often need custom dies and hand finishing, so minimums are set per pattern.
Every programme can be produced under your own brand, with your labels and packaging. Read about private label manufacturing in India.

Buyer questions
How can I tell 18/10 from 18/0?
18/0 is magnetic and 18/10 is not, which is a quick first check. We confirm the grade with mill certificates and an analyser or lab report.
Is 18/10 always better than 18/8?
The difference in nickel content is small. Weight, finish and edges usually matter more to the user than 18/10 versus 18/8.
