GN2/1 stainless steel pan with 20mm depth holds 1.9 litres across 530 × 650mm working area. Used for bulk ingredient preparation, batch marinating, portioned storage, and cold display in commercial kitchens. Fits standard gastronorm racking, blast chillers, and bain-marie units.
Commercial Application
Operators use this pan for portioned mise en place during prep shifts. The shallow 20mm depth allows single-layer ingredient display for quick access during service. Staff transfer prepared components directly from walk-in to workstation without decanting.
Hotels and catering facilities store pre-portioned salad components, sliced vegetables, or marinated proteins in this pan format. The GN2/1 footprint matches standard holding equipment across UK and European commercial kitchens. Kitchen managers stock multiple units for batch rotation during multi-day events.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this pan manufactured from 304 or 430 grade stainless steel?
A: Commercial gastronorm pans typically use 430 stainless steel for cost-effective food contact applications. The grade provides adequate corrosion resistance for refrigerated storage and ambient prep work. Contact TurcoBazaar to confirm steel specification for NSF or specific hygiene compliance requirements.
Q: What load capacity does this 20mm depth pan support when filled?
A: At 1.9 litre capacity, the pan holds approximately 1.9kg of liquid or 1.5kg of portioned ingredients when filled to operational level. Gastronorm rails in refrigeration units are rated for 10-15kg per pan depending on shelf span. Avoid overloading beyond rim height to maintain stability during transport.
Q: Does this pan fit standard UK commercial refrigeration racking?
A: GN2/1 dimensions (530 × 650mm) match European and UK gastronorm standards used in walk-in coolers, prep fridges, and blast chillers. The pan slides into rail systems spaced for double-size gastronorm format. Verify rail spacing in older refrigeration units before bulk ordering.
Q: Can I order matching lids for these shallow pans?
A: TurcoBazaar supplies compatible gastronorm lids for sealed storage during refrigeration. Lids prevent cross-contamination and reduce moisture loss in cold holding applications. Contact sales to add lids to your order when standardising prep storage systems.
Q: Is this pan depth suitable for blast chilling prepared foods?
A: The 20mm shallow depth allows rapid temperature reduction in blast chillers by maximising surface area exposure. Food safety protocols require chilling from +70°C to +3°C within 90 minutes for prepared foods. This pan format supports compliant cooling for sauces, portioned proteins, and cooked vegetables.
