This GN2/1 gastronorm pan holds 53 litres at 200mm depth. It fits standard commercial kitchen racking and holding equipment across hotels, restaurants, and catering production lines. Operators use it for bulk ingredient storage, batch cooking, and hot or cold food transport between prep and service areas.
Commercial Application
The 530mm x 650mm footprint matches universal gastronorm racking systems. Kitchens stack multiple units in blast chillers, proofers, holding cabinets, and mobile trolleys. The 200mm depth handles soups, stews, rice, pasta, and bulk marinated proteins during prep and service.
Catering teams fill the pan during batch cooking, then transfer it directly into hot holding or refrigeration without decanting. The volume supports 40-60 portion yields depending on dish density. Stainless construction allows oven-to-chill workflow without material degradation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What stainless steel grade is this gastronorm pan?
A: Manufactured from commercial kitchen-grade stainless steel meeting CE food contact standards. The alloy provides corrosion resistance for acidic and salt-based ingredients. Material specification sheets are available on request for HACCP documentation.
Q: What is the load-bearing capacity when filled?
A: At 200mm depth, the pan holds 53 litres or approximately 53kg of liquid product. Rolled edges maintain structural integrity when stacked in standard gastronorm racking. Avoid dropping when filled to prevent corner deformation.
Q: Does this pan fit standard gastronorm shelving and racks?
A: Yes. GN2/1 dimensions (530mm x 650mm) fit universal commercial kitchen racking, mobile trolleys, blast chillers, proofers, and hot holding cabinets. Verify internal equipment dimensions for 200mm depth clearance when stacked.
Q: Can this pan go directly from oven to blast chiller?
A: Yes. Stainless steel construction tolerates oven roasting temperatures and rapid blast chilling without warping or material failure. Allow slight cool-down before refrigeration to reduce thermal shock on seals and gaskets in holding equipment.
Q: Is custom sizing available for non-standard equipment?
A: Standard gastronorm dimensions are stocked for immediate dispatch. Custom sizing requires manufacturing lead time and minimum order quantities. Contact TurcoBazaar with equipment specifications for feasibility and quotation.
