This perforated stainless steel gastronorm container holds GN1/3 format at 200mm depth. Used for draining, steaming, and rinsing operations in commercial kitchens. Designed for integration with standard gastronorm racking and steam equipment.
Commercial Application
Perforated base allows liquid drainage during thawing, washing, and steaming workflows. Fits directly into bain-maries, blast chillers, and prep tables equipped with GN1/3 slots. Operators use it to drain blanched vegetables, rinse proteins, or steam delicate items without transferring between vessels.
Commonly deployed during batch prep when ingredients require separation from excess moisture. The 200mm depth provides 10.4 litre working volume when filled to rim. Stack multiple units in walk-in coolers or transport trolleys without nesting interference.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What stainless steel grade is used in this gastronorm pan?
A: Constructed from food-grade stainless steel meeting CE and NSF food contact surface requirements. Material composition provides corrosion resistance against commercial kitchen acids, salts, and cleaning agents. Confirm specific steel grade (304 or 430) with TurcoBazaar for operations requiring documented material certification.
Q: What is the maximum load-bearing capacity when stacked?
A: Reinforced rim design supports stacking of up to 8 filled units without structural deformation. Total weight capacity depends on shelving system and racking specification. Verify load limits with your gastronorm trolley or refrigeration equipment manufacturer before exceeding 6-unit vertical stacks.
Q: Does this pan fit standard gastronorm shelving and racking systems?
A: GN1/3 format (325mm × 176mm) conforms to EN 631-1 European gastronorm standard adopted globally. Compatible with adjustable shelving in walk-in coolers, service trolleys, and prep table cutouts sized for GN1/3 containers. The 200mm depth fits standard 65mm interval shelf spacing when allowing clearance for stacked units.
Q: Can this perforated pan be used in combi ovens and steamers?
A: Stainless steel construction withstands steam cabinet temperatures and combi oven environments. Perforations allow steam penetration for even cooking of vegetables and proteins. Verify equipment manufacturer specifications for maximum pan depth and perforation compatibility before high-temperature steaming applications.
Q: Is custom sizing available for non-standard gastronorm applications?
A: TurcoBazaar provides access to Turkish manufacturers producing custom gastronorm formats and non-standard depths. Minimum order quantities apply for bespoke sizing outside GN1/3, GN1/2, and GN1/1 formats.
