Profile
Steelite International is a pottery firm that manufactures ceramic tableware. Its core products include vitrified porcelain and stoneware items designed for commercial use. The company primarily serves the hospitality sector, supplying hotels, restaurants and catering establishments. Its headquarters are located in the United Kingdom. Steelite International's tableware is used in various hospitality settings.
In December 2018, Steelite International experienced a cyber attack that encrypted its servers and targeted its payroll system. The attackers demanded a ransom payment in Bitcoin, which the company refused to pay. The internal IT team detected the intrusion and proceeded to rebuild the affected servers using unencrypted backups. Operations were restored without financial impact on employee wages, preventing disruption to payroll. Following the incident, the organization implemented enhanced security measures to reduce the likelihood of similar threats.
Steelite International's specialization lies in producing durable ceramic tableware capable of withstanding rigorous commercial use. The company's focus on the hospitality market drives its product design towards functionality and aesthetic appeal. Its manufacturing processes emphasize vitrification, which contributes to the strength and chip resistance of its products. The firm maintains a commitment to quality control, ensuring that its tableware meets industry standards for safety and durability. Steelite International continues to operate from its UK headquarters, supporting its workforce and supplying customers with ceramic tableware.
