Product Description
These Araven polypropylene gastronorm containers are a practical storage solution for commercial kitchens that need reliable, stackable containers compatible with standard GN racking and refrigeration units. Each container is moulded in food-safe polypropylene and supplied with an airtight lid, with colour-coded clips included in red, yellow, green, and blue — allowing kitchens to run a clear colour-coded system for allergen separation, ingredient rotation, or section labelling.
Polypropylene is a sensible choice for this type of container. It handles the temperature range from frozen storage through to light hot-holding without warping, and it tolerates the daily abuse of a working kitchen — drops, stacking, and repeated dishwasher cycles — without degrading quickly. The permanent wipe-clean label on each container supports date and content labelling without the cost and waste of disposable stickers.
Key practical features worth noting:
- Colour-coded clip system supports allergen and content separation at a glance
- Airtight lids help maintain product freshness and reduce cross-contamination risk
- Dishwasher-safe construction suits high-turnover kitchen environments
- Permanent integrated label panel reduces reliance on adhesive labels
- Standard 1/3 GN footprint fits most refrigeration and bain-marie configurations
These containers are well suited to prep kitchens, cold rooms, and service counters where organised, labelled storage is a daily requirement. They are not designed for direct oven use or sustained high-temperature applications — polypropylene has practical limits that make it appropriate for cold and ambient storage rather than cooking vessels.
If you are stocking a new kitchen or replacing an existing set and want to confirm the right size or configuration for your setup, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes — the included colour-coded clips (red, yellow, green, and blue) make it straightforward to assign a consistent colour to specific allergens or ingredient categories across your kitchen. Combined with the integrated label panel, they support a practical and auditable allergen separation system.
- Yes, they are designed to withstand repeated commercial dishwasher cycles. Polypropylene is generally more tolerant of dishwasher use than some other plastics, though as with any food storage container, inspecting regularly for cracks or surface degradation is good practice.
- The containers are rated up to 95°C, which covers most hot-holding bain-marie applications. However, they are not intended for direct oven use or sustained cooking processes — they are best used for storage, prep, and service-counter holding rather than as a cooking vessel.
