About Orion
Orion porcelain is chunky, tough white china widely used in cafeterias, hotels and restaurants. Orion porcelain is vitrified to British Standard BS4034:1990 meaning its designed to last in a commercial environment. It is very resistant chipping, crazing and water absorption. It is able to withstand many dishwasher cycles and is freezer, microwave and oven safe.
The use of non-abrasive materials such as rubber or plastic utensils is recommended when removing excess food as metal utensils may cause lasting damage to glazed surfaces. Furthermore, it is not advised that you wash porcelain items with metal items (such as cutlery) in the dishwasher.
Although our Orion products are designed to withstand many pressures, please avoid sudden temperature changes (e.g. oven to freezer) as thermal shock may occur.
