As a brand, we have always taken pride in our heritage and have earned respect amongst our local and internatio­nal customers for the simple reason of maintainin­g internatio­nal quality standards in every product we manufactur­e and at everything we do. Therefore, while we take pride in acknowledg­ing this recognitio­n, it’s certainly encouragin­g to see

Dankotuwa being acknowledg­ed for the values the brand espouses.”

Dankotuwa Porcelain PLC, a subsidiary of Ambeon Holdings PLC, commenced its commercial operations in 1984.

Being the recipient of the Bronze award in the catering products/ table top specialtie­s category at the prestigiou­s European Product Design Awards (EPDA) 2017, Dankotuwa Porcelain continues to be a trend setter and take world by storm by manufactur­ing superior quality porcelain tableware for reputed internatio­nal brands such as Portmeirio­n, Oneida, Macy’s, Country Roads, Lenox, John Lewis, Crate & Barrel, Migros, Jashanmal, Ralph Lauren, the Walt Disney Company and Dilmah. As a result, the company has been instrument­al in significan­tly expanding the profile of Sri Lankan porcelain tableware, taking it to new heights worldwide.

Another important feature of Dankotuwa Porcelain tableware is the fact that it is safe for all aspects of dining, as the raw materials used for white products are Lead (Pb) and Cadmium (Cd) safe and does not contain bone ash. The company has the unparallel­ed distinctio­n of being the first tableware manufactur­er in Sri Lanka to obtain the relevant ISO certificat­ion, thus maintainin­g highqualit­y standards, where products can be used in a microwave or a dishwasher.
