Specialist Areas

There are specialist areas we can help you with. Again, our service to you as a "one-stop-shop". Here's a sample.

Buffet Items

This is a huge area and one we are constantly asked about. In fact, after we finish our new website section on Induction, we will be working on one for Buffets. We carry everything you could possibly need for your buffet, from the latest speccy serving containers to all your dispensing needs. We do the latest induction technology and other hot/cold equipment too (have a look in the Display, Holding & Serving Equipment section). Here are some ideas to start you off.

Buffet Ideas No 1     Buffet Ideas No 2     Buffet Ideas No 3     Buffet Ideas No 4

Here is an expansion of the Bauscher FUNction Range from Buffet Ideas No 1.

Garibaldi Buffet Line

Buffets also featured in our Top 5 "What's Hot" for 2006. This is in our Feb 06 eZine.

February 2006 eZine

You can also have a look at the new Hammered Metal pieces.

GIBPAT Hammered Tableware Collection

Glass Plates and Platters

Following on from buffet items a little, but a specialty area of it's own, is our glass plates and platters collection. These pieces are stunning, and some absolutely humongous. You can use them as face plates, perhaps something different for salad, tapas and petit fours displays, and the sky's the limit on the buffet. We've even got a fabulous lattice style you could use to hold food above melting ice. You'll certainly stand out from the crowd whatever you choose. We have our new Glass Plates & Platters section (on the left) up and running now, plus here are a couple of pdfs that are also new, with more to follow during the year.

General Large Glass Platters     General Medium Glass Platters

Asian Style Tableware

The latest shapes and all the usual pieces your customers expect to find on the table. Check out the brochure below for a very small start. There is also a fantastic new array of dipping containers and chopstick holders in glass (part of our glass plates and platters collection brochure we are currently working on). We also have the Bauscher and Narumi ranges for your 4 and 5 star requirements, very classy items indeed. Also, new to the mid range, is our new GIBPAT Chinaware Collection which has a large range of Asian style pieces. Remember, we can source just about anything!

Metal Tabletop

(as featured in Open House Foodservice Magazine and Hospitality Magazine)

As already mentioned, this is our range of Hammered Metal. Very much still a specialist area, it's all part of the global Mixed Media trend. Metal, combined with glass and porcelain, will not only help you create your own unique look, but do it with little outlay compared to replacing an entire setting.

GIBPAT Hammered Tabletop Collection

Day Spa and Poolside

Well, where do we start. There is such a fantastic range of plastic that looks like glass these days, and gorgeous melamine plates that don't look at all 60s. Give us a call and we will find a product to match your current decor, or we can simply just give you some ideas on what's available. We don't charge for advice.

Have a look at our August 2006 eZine (page 2) for some plastic to go around the pool.

Coming soon . . . our new Day Spa and Poolside page.

Other Items

We can source a number of other tableware items for you, ranging from budget pieces, to the high end silverplate. Items include butter dishes, vases, candelabras, dome covers, bread baskets, table crumbers, cruet sets, toothpick holders, table numbers and holders, toast racks and wine buckets, to name a few.
