FAQs

Is this container safe for oven use?

Yes, the 201 stainless steel construction is heat resistant, making it suitable for standard kitchen oven use.

Can I use this for deep freezing?

Yes, it is suitable for cold storage and freezer applications.

Does it come with a lid?

Yes, the product is supplied with a matching lid for secure storage.

What does 1/2 GN mean?

It refers to the industry-standard gastronorm footprint (325mm x 265mm), which is half the size of a standard full-size GN pan.

Is the material magnetic?

The 201 grade stainless steel may show slight magnetic properties, which is normal for this construction type.

Troubleshooting

Container stuck inside another during storage

Apply a small amount of warm water and mild soap around the rim to break the vacuum seal.

Water spots or cloudy finish after cleaning

Buff the surface with a clean microfiber cloth and a small amount of stainless steel polish or vinegar.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Universal industry-standard sizing for wide compatibility
  • Durable stainless steel construction withstands heavy daily use
  • Excellent for both hot and cold storage applications
  • Easy to clean and maintain in professional dishwashing environments

Cons

  • Requires specific 150mm deep frame clearance for optimal storage
  • Metal can become hot during prolonged steam table use
  • Not suitable for microwave use due to metal material

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure proper fit, verify that your kitchen equipment supports the 1/2 GN size and a depth of at least 150mm. The container is ready for immediate use upon arrival. For maintenance, while the pan is dishwasher safe, avoid using abrasive steel wool or harsh chemical cleaners that may compromise the brushed finish. To prevent water spotting, we recommend drying the container promptly after a cycle. For long-term storage, ensure the pan is completely dry before stacking to prevent moisture buildup between units.
