Why this strainer earns its place
The 180mm diameter is the working size. Large enough to drain a serious batch of pasta, sift flour for a whole production run, or strain a full pan of stock into a container in one movement. The polypropylene frame keeps the weight right down—you can use this all service long without hand fatigue—while the stainless steel mesh handles the actual work.
This size sits in the practical sweet spot for most kitchens. It's not so large that it dominates storage or becomes awkward to handle; it's not so small that you need to work in batches. Whether you're running a busy kitchen doing twenty covers a night or a catering prep kitchen processing bulk ingredients, this is the sieve that earns its space.
The polypropylene frame won't shatter or dent. If you drop it, it bounces. If you throw it in a sink, it won't damage the enamel. It's built for speed and volume, not for show. After service, rinse it or throw it in the dishwasher (top rack is safest for the frame, though it's commercial-rated). The mesh is pure stainless steel—it won't corrode, won't clog, won't degrade.
