Continental China was founded in 1949 by the Rosenthal tableware manufacturer from Germany. The vision was to create a brand of vitrified hotel ware that would be synonymous with affordable quality and style. Today Continental China is not only a respected brand in South Africa, but also exports to North America, Europe, and Africa. To satisfy the demands of today’s diverse dining environment, Continental China has created a wider spectrum of design and innovation.
The Continental China products are manufactured with the finest raw materials, including a high Alumina content which provides strength and durability. These vitrified products have a fully glazed foot, are highly durable, scratch resistant, and carry a 5-year chip warranty.
