The stainless flatware is a high-quality product designed for

Care and Handling
To maintain the quality and longevity of your stainless
flatware, it is essential to follow the care and handling
guidelines outlined below:
Handling
- Slotted cylinders in a rack are suitable for sink or dishwasher
use, allowing you to wash, transport, and dispense flatware with
minimal handling. - If using 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. - If using 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. Do not wash the flatware in a flat
position. - Wash your flatware in hot water and use a good cleaning agent.
Ensure the dishwasher temperature is above 130 degrees Fahrenheit
by checking it twice daily. - Use a nonabrasive or noncorrosive cleaning agent to avoid
damaging the stainless steel surface.
Rinsing
- Rinse the clean flatware in water with a temperature 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 to prevent mineral deposits on the flatware. - Ensure the flatware in the cylinders is loosely packed to allow
for air drying. Shake racks to remove any excess 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 damage. - Store the flatware with tines, bowls, and blades facing down to
protect the utensil’s working surfaces. - Before storing, make sure the flatware is clean and completely
dry to avoid any potential corrosion or damage. - Ensure you have an adequate amount of flatware for rush periods
to meet your dining needs.
