This GN2/3 gastronorm pan measures 354mm × 325mm with 20mm depth. Constructed from commercial-grade stainless steel for food contact use in professional kitchens. Used for ingredient portioning, cold prep staging, and refrigerated storage across restaurant, hotel, and catering operations.
Commercial Application
Fits standard gastronorm racking and refrigeration systems. Operators use this size for sauce mise en place, prepared garnishes, and ingredient batching during service prep. The 20mm depth handles low-volume portioning and flat ingredient storage without vertical stacking.
Kitchen staff transfer portioned ingredients from bulk prep into these pans for line station access. The shallow profile allows fast cooling in blast chillers and efficient stacking in reach-in refrigerators. Used during prep shifts and restocked as needed during service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this pan manufactured from 304 or 430 grade stainless steel?
A: This model uses food-grade stainless steel meeting CE commercial kitchen standards. Both 304 and 430 grades are acceptable for gastronorm food contact use. Confirm specific grade requirement with TurcoBazaar if your operation mandates 304 for corrosion resistance in high-salt environments.
Q: What load capacity does the 20mm depth provide?
A: The pan holds approximately 1.5 litres when filled to rim level. Practical working capacity is 1.2 litres to prevent spillage during transport. Suitable for sauces, dressings, and ingredient portions rather than bulk storage.
Q: Can this pan be used in standard bain-marie wells?
A: Yes, GN2/3 format fits any gastronorm-compatible bain-marie or steam table well. The 20mm depth works for cold holding but depth is insufficient for wet heat holding of hot sauces. Use deeper pans for prolonged bain-marie service.
Q: Does the pan withstand blast chiller temperatures?
A: Stainless steel construction tolerates rapid cooling from +70°C to -18°C without warping. The material remains food-safe across the full commercial temperature range.
Q: Are custom dimensions available for non-standard racking?
A: TurcoBazaar stocks standard gastronorm sizes only. Custom fabrication is not offered for individual pans. Contact with your racking specifications if you require guidance on nearest standard GN size.
