Product Information

Full details

The Araven 19L Gastronorm food storage container is designed for professional chefs and busy commercial kitchen staff who require reliable, high-capacity ingredient storage. Its primary benefit is the combination of an airtight seal and color-coded identification system, which drastically improves food safety and workflow organization. A notable caveat for users is that while the container is highly durable, the sheer 19-liter volume requires significant shelf space and may be bulky to handle when filled to capacity.

FAQs

Are these containers microwave safe?

These containers are designed primarily for storage in refrigeration or freezers; they are not intended for use in a microwave.

Can I stack these containers?

Yes, the Gastronorm design allows for stable stacking, which helps maximize vertical storage space in refrigerators or dry storage areas.

What are the colored clips for?

The clips are provided to help staff distinguish between food types, which is a critical practice for preventing cross-contamination in busy kitchens.

Is the material BPA-free?

Araven containers are manufactured using food-grade materials compliant with professional health and safety standards.

Can the lids be purchased separately?

Yes, replacement lids and additional color-coded clips can be sourced through professional kitchen supply distributors if lost or damaged.

Troubleshooting

Lid feels difficult to secure or remove

Check the rim of the container for dried food debris that may be obstructing the seal. Ensure the clips are properly snapped into their designated slots.

Labels are fading or hard to read

Ensure you are using a food-safe, removable marker. If using permanent ink, use an alcohol-based wipe to clear the area before applying a new label.

Plastic appears clouded after repeated wash cycles

Verify that your dishwasher rinse aid settings are correct and that you are not using overly abrasive cleaning pads which can scratch the surface.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent for maintaining food safety standards via color coding
  • Shatter-resistant plastic ensures long-term reliability
  • Dishwasher and freezer safe for versatile kitchen utility
  • Airtight seal significantly extends shelf life of ingredients
  • Clear, permanent labeling helps prevent inventory confusion

Cons

  • Large 19L footprint may be difficult to fit in compact reach-in refrigerators
  • High capacity can make the unit heavy to lift when fully stocked
  • Requires proper clip management to ensure the system remains effective

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your container, attach the preferred color-coded clip to the lid based on your kitchen's specific safety protocols. Before first use, ensure the surface is clean by running the unit through a commercial dishwasher. When storing, always use the integrated label area to note the product name and the storage date. The container is freezer-safe; however, avoid overfilling it with liquids that expand when frozen to prevent pressure damage to the lid. Routine care involves cleaning with a non-abrasive sponge and standard commercial dishwashing detergents to maintain the clarity of the plastic.
