Introducing coloured crockery may be beneficial for your patients.

In the healthcare sector it is crucial to provide the most suitable plating and serving solutions. This is as much about creating a friendly environment as it is about improving the quality of life of patients with special needs.

Studies have shown that using plates with colour can be beneficial within a healthcare environment. The Alzheimer’s Society noted that by providing dementia patients with a colourful plate, it becomes easier for them to distinguish between the plate, the food itself and other surfaces. Small steps like this can have a great impact on the quality of life of patients, giving them much needed confidence and independence in their day-to-day lives.

The Opal Brush range from Arcoroc is a great example of how colours can be implemented into tableware design to create a more user-friendly result. This range is shock, scratch and dishwasher resistant, as well as hygienic and food safety compliant. Made from 100% recyclable materials, the Opal Brush range also boasts high heat retention, making it perfect for any commercial kitchen environment.
