The PH403 is a GN1/4 stainless steel pan with 65mm depth for portioning, storage, and ingredient holding in commercial kitchens. It fits standard gastronorm racking systems used in prep areas, hot holding cabinets, and blast chillers. Kitchen staff use it for batch ingredient storage during service and mise en place preparation.
Commercial Application
GN1/4 pans integrate into modular gastronorm workflows where space efficiency determines storage density. The 65mm depth handles portioned ingredients, sauces, garnishes, and prepped components that require frequent access during service periods.
Staff transfer pans between refrigeration, prep stations, and service counters without repackaging contents. The standardised footprint means four GN1/4 units occupy the same space as one full-size GN1/1 pan in holding equipment.
