Easier packing – thanks to lightweight polypropylene construction
Polypropylene moulding produces a rigid plate at a mass of 135 grams and dimensions of 230 x 275 x 30 mm, keeping bulk low while retaining usable strength. A slim profile tucks alongside cookware without awkward protrusion.
Reduced weight and compact shape free up space and cut carried load on multi-day treks. Less bulk on the rucksack means one less compromise on kit selection.
Quick cleanup – with a smooth, dishwasher-compatible finish
A smooth interior finish minimises food sticking and allows effective cleaning by hand or in a dishwasher. Washable polypropylene resists stain retention that can occur with textured plastics.
Minimal scrubbing after meals saves time and water when camping. Using a dishwasher at home keeps plates hygienic between trips.
Spill control – with a raised lip that prevents food runoff
A moulded rim around the plate edge creates a shallow containment area to reduce food and liquid spillage on uneven surfaces. The grip-loop on the side offers an attachment point for secure stowage.
Meals stay on the plate even when placed on a rucksack or lap on rough ground. The side loop enables hands-free carrying when clipped to gear.
