Stainless Steel Bowls, Plates, Trays & Servingware
Bowls, plates, thalis, trays and serving dishes are the core of India's steel utensil industry, deep-drawn or spun from sheet in standard and custom sizes.
We specify thickness, rim and finish, match the product to the right forming unit and inspect it before export, for retail, e-commerce and hospitality buyers.

Tableware specification essentials
- Thickness
- Specified in millimetres with a tolerance. It drives weight and dent resistance.
- Rim
- Rolled, curled or flat. Rims must be smooth and burr-free.
- Forming
- Deep drawing or spinning, which determines achievable shapes and depth.
- Finish
- Mirror, satin, matte or hammered, approved physically.
- Stability
- Flat bases that sit level, without rocking.
- Nesting
- Nesting dimensions, to cut freight volume.

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
Standard sizes from existing tools allow moderate minimums. New sizes or shapes need tooling, and decorative finishes add setup.
Every programme can be produced under your own brand, with your labels and packaging. Read about private label manufacturing in India.

Market-specific sizing, labelling and testing notes for this category are covered in the stainless steel houseware buyer guide.
Buyer questions
Which grade should I specify?
SS 304 (18/8) suits most food-contact products. SS 430 (18/0) is cheaper and magnetic. SS 201/202 lowers cost but resists corrosion less well. We name the grade in the specification and check it on production.
Can you make nesting bowl sets?
Yes. We specify the nesting dimensions so sets stack cleanly and ship efficiently.
Do kids' plates need special testing?
For the US, children's tableware needs third-party lead testing and a Children's Product Certificate. We arrange testing at a CPSC-accepted lab.
