The Araven 1700ml Gastronorm food container is an essential tool for professional chefs and home cooks alike who prioritize food safety, organization, and kitchen efficiency. Its standout feature is the integrated color-coding system and permanent, wipe-clean labeling, which helps maintain strict hygiene standards and prevents cross-contamination in busy environments. While its durable, shatter-resistant build is perfect for commercial settings, users should note that the airtight lid requires a firm press to seal properly, which can be challenging if the container is filled to the absolute brim.

These containers are designed primarily for freezer and refrigerator storage. It is not recommended to use them in the microwave unless stated otherwise by the manufacturer's specific thermal guidelines.
1/6 Gastronorm is a standard sizing specification used in professional kitchens, indicating the physical footprint of the container relative to a standard full-size steam table pan.
Generally, lids are specific to the container series and size. Ensure you are using the lid matching the 1700ml capacity for an airtight fit.
Araven containers for professional use are designed to be food-safe; please check the bottom stamp on your specific unit for BPA-free certification.
The containers include a set of color-coded clips in red, yellow, green, and blue to support a variety of food safety workflows.
Ensure the rim of the container is clean and free of food debris, then press down firmly on all four corners of the lid until you hear a click.
Use a standard dry-erase or food-safe grease pencil. If residue remains, use a small amount of warm soapy water or a specialized plastic cleaner to gently wipe the label area.
To begin using your Araven container, ensure the clip is securely snapped into the designated notch on the lid. When washing, these containers are safe to be placed in the dishwasher; however, avoid using harsh abrasive scouring pads on the wipe-clean label surface, as this can degrade the writing area over time.
Regarding compatibility, the containers follow standard Gastronorm dimensions, meaning they will fit perfectly into most commercial food rails, prep tables, and shelving units designed for GN-sized equipment. When freezing, always leave a small headspace (approximately 1-2cm) at the top of the container to allow for liquid expansion, which prevents the lid from popping off or the container from cracking.
