Wooden serving trays made to measure
A wooden serving tray is more than its function. It accompanies every interaction with your guests and shapes the image your establishment conveys every day.
In a restaurant, a hotel or a guesthouse, every detail counts. Material quality, ease of use, finish and consistency with your visual identity all contribute to the overall experience you offer.
For more than 10 years, BA CONCEPT has designed and made fully bespoke wooden serving trays for restaurant and hotel professionals. Every piece is made in our own workshop, with no subcontracting, with particular care for material quality, durability and finishes.
A wooden tray designed for every service
Not every service has the same constraints. A room-service tray must offer stability, easy carrying and enough surface for a full meal. A tasting board puts the focus on presenting the products. Terrace or bar service calls for lightness, easy handling and resistance to intensive use.
That is why every project starts from your real conditions of use. Dimensions, weight, shape, type of handles, edge height or finish: each feature is defined to meet the requirements of your establishment and make your team’s daily work easier.
For us, bespoke means first and foremost designing a tool suited to its environment, combining aesthetics, ergonomics and durability.
Materials, shapes and finishes
Wood species
The choice of wood affects both the look and the use of the tray.
Oak appeals through its strength, natural warmth and distinctive character. Walnut brings a more contemporary elegance with its deep tones and refined grain. Poplar plywood, lighter, is particularly suited to large runs or trays handled frequently during service.
Each species has its own qualities. We help you choose the material best suited to your business, your environment and your maintenance requirements.
Shapes and handles
The shape of a personalised serving tray is not just an aesthetic detail. A rectangular tray with straight edges maximises the usable surface. An oval one is easier to carry and takes up less room in narrow corridors. Integrated handles – milled into the piece itself – avoid add-on parts that loosen over time. Rounded edges protect hands during intensive service.
The shape is chosen according to what the tray will go through every day.
Marking and personalisation
Logo laser-engraved directly into the wood, name of the establishment, graphic signature or a discreet pattern along the edge: every bespoke wooden tray can carry your visual identity permanently and precisely. Laser engraving does not fade, peel or react to dishwashing. Colour printing is available for projects that need more graphic complexity.
All our models – formats, woods, personalisation options – are available on Les Planches du Chef, , our website dedicated to restaurant and hotel professionals.
