Harfield Tableware Joins the Foodservice Equipment Association (FEA)
Strengthening Our Commitment to the UK Foodservice Industry
We are delighted to announce that Harfield Tableware is now an official member of the Foodservice Equipment Association (FEA), the UK’s leading trade association representing the foodservice equipment industry.

What is the FEA?
The Foodservice Equipment Association (FEA) represents more than 190 companies involved in manufacturing, supplying and supporting foodservice equipment throughout the UK. The organisation works closely with government, industry bodies and businesses to promote best practice, provide technical guidance and support innovation across the sector.
Membership allows businesses to collaborate with other industry leaders, stay informed about regulatory developments and contribute to shaping the future of commercial catering and foodservice.
Why Harfield Joined the FEA
For over 65 years, Harfield Tableware has been manufacturing durable, reusable plastic tableware designed to withstand demanding environments. From schools and universities to hospitals, care homes, restaurants and cafés, our products are trusted for their quality, safety and long service life.
Joining the FEA reflects our commitment to:
- Supporting the UK foodservice industry.
- Staying at the forefront of legislation and technical developments.
- Working alongside other respected manufacturers and suppliers.
- Continuing to improve sustainable, reusable tableware solutions.
- Sharing knowledge and best practice with industry professionals.
As highlighted in FEA’s New Member Spotlight, Harfield was attracted by the association’s strong industry influence, its work representing members at government level and the opportunities it provides for collaboration across the sector.
Supporting a More Sustainable Future
Reusable tableware continues to play an increasingly important role as organisations look to reduce waste, improve durability and move away from single-use products.
Harfield has long championed reusable alternatives that help organisations lower replacement costs while reducing environmental impact. Our extensive product range includes reusable plates, bowls, tumblers, mugs, trays, jugs and specialist healthcare products, all manufactured to meet the demands of busy catering environments.
Being part of the FEA allows us to contribute to wider industry discussions around sustainability, food contact materials, product safety and the future of foodservice equipment.
Looking Ahead
As an FEA member, we look forward to building new relationships across the industry, participating in events and forums, and continuing to support customers with innovative, reliable tableware solutions.
Whether you’re supplying schools, healthcare facilities, hospitality venues or commercial caterers, our goal remains the same – to provide reusable tableware that delivers exceptional performance, outstanding value and long-lasting quality.
We are excited about the opportunities that FEA membership brings and look forward to playing an active role within the association for many years to come.
