A Tale of Two Materials: A5 Melamine vs. Bamboo Fiber

Choosing Your Perfect Square: Understanding the Materials

A5 for Maximum Gloss & Classic Durability, Bamboo Fiber for Natural Matte & Eco-Style.

Selecting the right material is key to achieving the perfect look and performance for your square plates:

A5 Melamine – The Premium Standard:

  • What it is: Pure, high-grade melamine resin.
  • Best for: Achieving the highest gloss finish, mimicking ceramic beautifully. It offers exceptional durability, scratch resistance,
    and is ideal for vibrant, complex print designs. The go-to choice for most demanding restaurant and hotel environments.
    Also available in a great matte finish.
  • Think: Classic, durable, versatile, maximum shine potential.


Bamboo Fiber Blend – The Natural Choice:

  • What it is: A composite material blending melamine resin with sustainable bamboo fiber (plus often corn starch/other fillers).
  • Best for: Achieving a beautiful, tactile matte finish. It has a slightly more natural, sometimes speckled appearance
    that’s very popular for contemporary, organic, or eco-focused brands. It’s still durable and food-safe,
    great for cafes, outdoor lines, and home goods.
  • Think: Modern matte, eco-conscious aesthetic, unique texture.


No matter your choice, both materials offer the break-resistance and practicality melamine is known for.
We can help you decide which best fits your brand and customer needs.

Your Square Melamine Plate Questions Answered

What's the main difference in durability between A5 Melamine and Bamboo Fiber blend plates?

Both are significantly more durable and break-resistant than ceramic. Pure A5 melamine generally offers slightly higher impact resistance and scratch resistance, especially in a glossy finish. Bamboo fiber blends are still very robust for everyday use.

Is the "Bamboo Fiber" plate 100% bamboo?

No. Our bamboo fiber plates are a composite material, primarily melamine resin mixed with bamboo powder (and sometimes other fillers like corn starch) to achieve its unique look, texture, and eco-friendlier appeal while maintaining necessary strength and food safety.

Is the matte finish harder to clean than the glossy finish?

Both finishes are non-porous and relatively easy to clean. The high-gloss finish is exceptionally smooth, making wipe-downs effortless. The matte finish might require slightly more attention to remove oily residues but is still generally easy to maintain and is commercial dishwasher safe.

Can I get a custom size square plate? What's the process?

Yes! You provide the dimensions you need. We quote the mold fee (US$750/design). Upon approval and payment, we create the mold and samples. The fee can be refunded later based on achieving a specific cumulative order volume for that custom item.

Are these square plates safe for use in the microwave or oven?

No, melamine products, including both A5 and bamboo fiber square plates, are not microwave or oven safe. High heat can damage the material. They are intended for serving food, not heating it.

What is the typical Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) for custom printed or custom size square plates?

Our standard MOQ is typically around 3000 pieces per unique design (including size, material, finish, and print). Contact us to discuss your specific project for accurate details.
