Five Major Trends in the Future Development of the Buffet Tableware Industry

The buffetware industry has changed very quickly in recent years. From the earliest stainless steel plates to various smart tableware, the development speed has exceeded many people's imagination. I think it will develop in the following directions in the future:

The first is material upgrade. Although traditional stainless steel is durable, it is too heavy and not environmentally friendly. Now more and more restaurants are starting to use biodegradable materials such as bamboo fiber and corn starch, which are both light and environmentally friendly. Some high-end hotels have even started to use edible tableware, which is very interesting to eat the tableware directly after eating the food.

The second is intelligence. Now we can see plates with NFC chips, and customers can know the information of the dishes by scanning. In the future, smart plates that can measure temperature may be developed to remind customers whether the food temperature is appropriate. Some technology companies are also developing plates that can automatically calculate the calories of food, which is particularly useful for fitness people.

The third is the increase in customized demand. Different restaurants have very different requirements for tableware. For example, hot pot restaurants need high temperature resistance, and Japanese food restaurants pursue exquisite shapes. In the future, there may be more customized services on demand, allowing restaurants to create unique tableware styles.

There will also be breakthroughs in hygiene and safety. Some manufacturers are now researching self-cleaning coatings, which can automatically sterilize tableware after use. Anti-fall design is also very important, after all, restaurants are most afraid of too high a tableware loss rate.

Finally, the popularization of the rental model. Many small and medium-sized restaurants cannot afford to purchase high-end tableware in large quantities. In the future, professional tableware rental companies may appear to provide regular disinfection and replacement services. This can not only reduce restaurant costs, but also ensure the quality of tableware.

In general, the buffetware industry will pay more and more attention to environmental protection, intelligence and personalization. The era of simply selling tableware has passed. What is being competed now is the ability to provide overall solutions.
