Why this strainer earns its place
A proper sieve for any catering kitchen. The 140mm diameter is large enough for serious work—draining fresh pasta, sifting flour for pastry, straining stocks and pan sauces—without the bulk of larger frames. The construction is pure stainless steel; no gimmicks, no plastic handles to rot away. You can grab it hot, throw it in the dishwasher (or clean it under a tap), and trust it won't degrade after six months of service.
The weight is negligible—lightweight enough that you'll actually reach for it instead of a bowl and fork when you need one—but the steel is substantial enough to take genuine strain. The rim is smooth, the mesh is tight, and the balance is right. It sits between the fiddly little nesting sieves and the unwieldy ones that live in storage.
Olympia's built for catering, not home kitchens. This sieve is made to be used hard and washed harder. No special care required.
