Product Information: Stainless Flatware
The stainless flatware is a high-quality product designed for
everyday use. It is made from durable stainless steel, which is
resistant to corrosion and staining. The flatware consists of
utensils with tines, bowls, and blades, suitable for various dining
purposes.
Product Usage Instructions:
Care and Handling:
- Use slotted cylinders in a rack suitable for sink or dishwasher
use to wash, transport, and dispense flatware with minimum
handling. - In a system where flatware is washed and stored in the same
cylinder, sort the flatware into the cylinders with the utensil
side down to prevent hand contamination after cleaning. - In a system where flatware is transferred from the cleaning
cylinder to a storage cylinder by inversion, sort the flatware in
the cleaning cylinder with the utensil side up so that it will
eventually be stored utensil side down.
Washing:
- After pre-soaking, immediately load the flatware loosely into
vertical cylinders. Never wash flat. - Wash the flatware in hot water and a good cleaning agent.
- Use a nonabrasive or noncorrosive cleaning agent to avoid
damage to the stainless steel. - Check the dishwasher temperature twice daily and ensure it is
above 130 degrees Fahrenheit.
Rinsing:
- Rinse the clean flatware in water of at least 180 degrees
Fahrenheit. - Add a wetting agent to the rinse to prevent minerals in the
water from staining the flatware. - If you have very hard water, it is recommended to use a
softener. - Ensure the flatware in cylinders is loosely packed to allow air
drying. - Shake the racks to remove any water.
- To prevent corrosion and film build-up, thoroughly rinse the
flatware and dry it immediately after rinsing.
Storing:
- Always store the stainless flatware in a dry area to prevent
moisture-related issues. - Store the flatware with tines, bowls, and blades facing down to
avoid potential damage. - Ensure the flatware is clean and dry before storing it.
- Make sure you have an adequate amount of flatware for rush
periods to meet your dining needs.
