This offer ends in:
This polypropylene dough box stores and proofs pizza dough at 10.9L capacity in commercial kitchens. Stackable format handles batch preparation for pizzerias running 30-80 dough balls per service. Used by pizzeria operators, hotel kitchens, and artisan bakeries managing multi-batch workflows.
Commercial Application
Dough boxes sit in reach-in coolers or ambient proofing stations during prep shifts. Operators portion dough into balls, load boxes, then stack units to manage fermentation timing across service windows. Red colour coding separates dough types or batch times in multi-recipe operations.
During service prep, boxes move from cooler to workstation as dough reaches room temperature for stretching. Stackable design reduces cooler footprint when holding 6-10 batches simultaneously. Operators pull boxes in rotation to match dough maturity with order flow.
Key Operational Advantages

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What dough weight fits 10.9L capacity for 12-inch pizza production?
A: Box holds 6-8 dough balls at 250-300g each, standard portioning for 12-inch pizza bases. Total dough weight per box runs 1.5-2.4kg depending on final stretched diameter. Operators adjust ball count based on crust thickness and topping load.
Q: Does polypropylene handle overnight retardation at 2-4°C?
A: Material withstands -20°C to +60°C without cracking or warping. Use with GZFH616 lid for sealed overnight storage preventing dough skin formation. Polypropylene resists moisture absorption during 12-24 hour cold fermentation cycles.
Q: How many boxes stack vertically in standard 600mm cooler height?
A: Each box measures 74mm height including recessed stacking base. Standard 600mm cooler shelf fits 8 boxes stacked, managing 48-64 dough balls per vertical column. Leave 50mm clearance at top for airflow and lid removal.
Q: Can boxes withstand direct contact with flour-dusted work surfaces?
A: Smooth polypropylene exterior cleans easily with standard kitchen detergent and water. Material does not absorb flour dust or oil during repeated handling. Red colour remains visible under light flour coating for batch identification.
Q: What shelf depth required for 570mm box length in prep coolers?
A: External dimension 570mm requires minimum 600mm shelf depth for stable placement. Box fits standard commercial cooler racks and mobile shelving units. Front-to-back orientation allows operators to pull boxes forward without restacking adjacent units.
