This GN1/3 pan measures 176.5mm wide by 325mm deep with 40mm depth. Manufactured from stainless steel for direct food contact in commercial kitchens. Fits standard gastronorm racking systems used across hotel, restaurant, and catering operations.
Commercial Application
GN1/3 pans handle ingredient mise en place, cold holding during service, and batch prep portioning. The 40mm depth accommodates chopped vegetables, marinated proteins, and prepared sauces at workstation level. Operators use these pans in refrigerated drawer units and countertop bain-maries.
During peak service the pan moves from cold storage to hot holding without transfer steps. The 325mm depth fits two units side-by-side in a standard GN1/1 opening. Kitchens running multiple stations stock these in quantity for rapid changeover between courses.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this pan manufactured from 304 or 430 grade stainless steel?
A: This unit uses commercial-grade stainless steel meeting food contact standards. Specific alloy grade available on request for operations with material specification requirements. Both 304 and 430 grades are manufactured depending on production batch.
Q: What is the load-bearing capacity when stacked?
A: Stacking capacity depends on fill weight and rim support. The 40mm depth with rolled edges supports typical ingredient loads when stacked three to four units high. Avoid stacking when filled beyond 80% capacity to prevent rim deformation.
Q: Does the pan fit standard refrigerated drawer units?
A: GN1/3 is a standardised dimension recognised across commercial refrigeration and holding equipment. Verify internal drawer depth accommodates the 40mm height plus clearance for lids if used.
Q: Can this pan go directly from refrigeration to bain-marie heating?
A: Stainless steel construction tolerates thermal cycling from cold storage to heated holding. Avoid direct flame contact or placement on electric heating elements without water bath intermediary.
Q: Are lids available for this GN1/3 size?
A: Matching GN1/3 lids are available separately. Specify solid or slotted lid depending on whether condensation drainage is required. Lid procurement ensures FIFO stock rotation and contamination prevention during storage.
