Bauscher

Welcome to our Bauscher boutique, a German manufacturer of professional porcelain founded in 1881 in Weiden, Bavaria. Brothers August and Conrad Bauscher created the Gebrüder Bauscher Porzellanfabrik with a pioneering insight: to develop porcelain made exclusively for the hospitality and catering industry, which until then had to rely on domestic porcelain poorly suited to intensive use. More than 140 years later, Bauscher remains a recognised benchmark for hotelware and supplies many of the world's leading hotel chains, airlines and starred restaurants.

Bauscher know-how

Bauscher porcelain is fired at over 1400 °C, with a lead-free glaze and deep vitrification that make it particularly resistant to professional dishwasher cycles, stacking and thermal shock. The manufacturer covers all the formats required for restaurant service.

• Professional porcelain vitrified at 1400 °C, designed lead-free
• Optimised stackability: plates designed for space-saving in the kitchen
• Resistance to knife scratches and to lime and starch deposits
• Complete range: flat and deep plates, cups, teapots, bowls, serving dishes
• Kiln-fired decoration that retains brilliance over time

Choosing your Bauscher porcelain

What sets Bauscher porcelain apart on the professional market?

Bauscher invented modern hotel porcelain. Since 1881, the brand has designed its ranges specifically for the demands of intensive service: daily dishwasher cycles, repeated stacking, resistance to thermal shock and knife scratches. Its Bavarian porcelain is fired at over 1400 °C, one of the highest temperatures on the market, which ensures deep and lasting vitrification.

What is the significance of the B1100 collection and the Bauscher legacy?

Developed in the late 1950s and rolled out in the early 1960s, the B1100 range revolutionised the hospitality industry by introducing a stable stacking system. This DNA — stackable shapes, durability, space-saving — still inspires all current Bauscher collections such as Options or Modulus. Bauscher has long supplied major international airlines and hotel chains.

How can I optimise Bauscher stacking in a professional kitchen?

Bauscher collections are calibrated to stack tightly in pantries and pass-throughs: staying within a single range (Options, B1100, Modulus…) is the best way to make the most of this modular logic. Mixing collections sacrifices part of the space saving. For a large fleet, also plan trolleys and shelving that match the stack height of the chosen range.

Which Bauscher collection should I choose for a restaurant?

For a traditional restaurant, Compliments and Mozart offer classic shapes and excellent value. For contemporary or fine dining, Options and Raffinesse are the benchmark ranges. For institutional and assembly catering, Function offers shapes designed for kitchen productivity.
