Product Information
Full details
The Argon Tableware 3000ml Gastronorm Container is an essential tool for professional chefs and home cooks who prioritize durability and organizational efficiency in the kitchen. It provides a robust 3-litre capacity for storing, prepping, or serving ingredients, offering high resistance to corrosion and heat; however, users should note that as it is made of 201 stainless steel, it is best suited for environments where it can be properly dried to maintain its professional brushed finish.

FAQs
Is this container suitable for freezing food?
Yes, the 201 stainless steel construction is safe for cold storage and can be used in walk-in freezers.
Can I use this in a microwave?
No, this is a metal container and must not be used in a microwave under any circumstances.
Does the lid come with the container?
Yes, this model includes a matching lid designed to provide a secure fit for your contents.
Is the stainless steel magnetic?
201 stainless steel can exhibit mild magnetic properties, but this does not affect its performance or safety in food service.
What does the 1/6 size mean?
1/6 refers to the Gastronorm standard footprint; it occupies one-sixth of the surface area of a standard full-size steam table pan.
Troubleshooting
Container fits tightly in the frame
Ensure the frame rails are clean and free of food debris. If resistance continues, check that the frame itself is not bent.
Water spots appearing on the surface
Dry the container immediately after washing with a clean, soft cloth rather than letting it air dry.
Stuck food residue
Soak the container in warm, soapy water for 10 minutes to loosen particles before placing it in the dishwasher.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This container is designed for immediate integration into any professional or domestic kitchen equipped with Gastronorm-compatible appliances. Simply slot the pan into your existing frame or fridge rails. To maintain the life of the stainless steel, it is recommended to wash the container thoroughly after use. While the product is dishwasher safe, avoid using harsh abrasive pads or steel wool, as these can scratch the brushed metal finish. Always ensure the container is fully dry before storing it in a stack to prevent condensation buildup.
