Araven Storage Boxes and Tubs

This Araven GN 2/3 airtight container is designed specifically for storing fresh eggs in a commercial kitchen environment. It holds four circular stainless steel trays, each with a raised edge and a black PVC non-slip coating, sitting within a GN 2/3 footprint container that seals securely to protect contents from odour transfer and contamination.

In a busy kitchen, egg storage is often an afterthought until breakages, cross-contamination, or poor stock rotation become a problem. This container addresses that directly — eggs are held individually in formed trays, reducing movement and breakage during handling, and the airtight lid keeps the contents protected during refrigerated storage. The stainless steel trays are robust enough to withstand daily use and easy to clean thoroughly at the end of service.

Practical benefits for day-to-day kitchen operation include:

• Airtight seal prevents odour transfer to surrounding refrigerated stock
• Individual egg seating reduces breakage during storage and handling
• GN 2/3 footprint integrates with standard fridge shelving and gastronorm systems
• Stainless steel trays are hygienic, durable, and straightforward to clean
• Temperature rating suits both refrigerated storage and ambient preparation areas

No installation requirements apply — this is a standalone storage solution. It fits directly into any GN 2/3-compatible refrigerator shelf or cold prep unit. The container's temperature rating of -40°C to 95°C makes it suitable across cold storage and ambient kitchen conditions, though it is not intended for cooking or heat applications. For kitchens with very high egg throughput, a larger-capacity storage solution may be worth considering.

This container suits any commercial kitchen handling fresh eggs regularly — from hotel breakfast operations and café kitchens to pub and restaurant prep areas. If you're looking to standardise egg storage across multiple units or need guidance on fitting this into an existing gastronorm system, the team is happy to help.

This 2-litre square polypropylene container from Araven is a straightforward dry and refrigerated food storage solution designed for commercial kitchen prep and service environments. It comes supplied with an airtight lid and a set of seven colour-coded Colorclips, and includes a moulded measuring scale on the side for basic stock monitoring.

In a working kitchen, the square profile makes a practical difference. Rectangular and square containers stack and store more efficiently than round alternatives, reducing wasted shelf and fridge space when you are running banks of containers across multiple product lines. The side handles make it manageable to move even when full, and the containers nest when empty to keep storage areas tidy during quieter periods.

Practical advantages for day-to-day use include:

• Airtight lid helps protect stored food from humidity and cross-odour transfer
• Seven Colorclips allow colour-coded labelling by food type or allergen category
• Dishwasher safe, reducing cleaning time at the end of service
• Suitable for freezer use, covering the full cold storage workflow
• Stackable with lid on, and nestable when empty

At 2 litres, this container is best suited to smaller batch prep, individual ingredient storage, or portioning tasks rather than bulk holding. It is not a ventilated container, so it is not intended for produce that requires airflow. For operations needing larger capacities, Araven and similar manufacturers offer the same system design at higher volumes.

If you are building out a prep storage system and want to talk through quantities, sizing, or colour-coding protocols for allergen management, the team is happy to help you work through the detail.

This Araven 1/3 gastronorm food container is purpose-made for allergen management in commercial kitchens. The distinctive purple colour coding follows widely adopted allergen segregation practice, giving kitchen teams a clear, immediate visual cue that the contents require careful handling. It is made from polypropylene — the same grade of polymer used in medical equipment manufacturing — which gives it an exceptionally smooth, non-porous surface that resists odour absorption and is straightforward to clean and sanitise.

In day-to-day kitchen use, the container handles the full preparation and storage cycle without needing to transfer food between vessels. It moves safely from the freezer through cold storage and into a bain-marie or hot holding environment, which reduces handling steps and the risk of cross-contamination during service. The polypropylene construction holds up well to repeated commercial dishwasher cycles without warping or discolouring.

• Purple colour coding supports allergen segregation across the kitchen team
• Compatible with standard 1/3 GN frames, inserts, and storage systems
• Suitable for freezing, chilled storage, and hot holding up to 95°C
• Non-porous surface resists staining and is easy to sanitise thoroughly
• Airtight lid included, helping maintain food quality during storage

Being a standard 1/3 GN size, it fits directly into gastronorm-compatible prep tables, bain-maries, and cold wells, making it practical across most commercial kitchen configurations. It is well suited to any operation that needs to manage allergens systematically — from hotel kitchens and contract caterers to schools and care facilities. For kitchens requiring higher-volume allergen storage, larger GN formats in the same allergen range are worth considering.

This container is well suited to catering operations of most sizes, from small independent kitchens to larger sites needing reliable, cost-effective storage across multiple stations. For operations handling very large batch volumes, higher-capacity containers may be worth considering. If you are unsure which size or range best fits your workflow, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Araven 40-litre polypropylene food storage container is a practical, no-nonsense storage tub designed for everyday use in commercial kitchens. It comes supplied with eight colour-coded clips — two each in red, yellow, green and blue — allowing teams to assign specific colours to food types or allergen categories as part of a structured food safety system.

In a working kitchen, these containers earn their place through reliability and versatility. The polypropylene construction handles the rigours of daily prep, storage and rotation without cracking or warping, and the tubs nest and stack securely, making the most of limited cold storage or dry store space. They're rated for freezer use down to -40°C, so they move comfortably between ambient prep areas and deep-freeze storage without any risk of brittleness or failure.

• Colour-coded clips support allergen control and food separation workflows
• Stacks securely to make efficient use of storage space
• Freezer-safe construction handles the full range of cold storage environments

• A practical size for bulk ingredient storage, prepped items or marinating

These containers are well suited to most commercial kitchens — from small independent restaurants and cafés through to contract catering and school kitchen operations. At 40 litres, the capacity works well for mid-to-large volume prep. Teams handling very high throughput, or needing to store whole joints or large batch-cooked items, may find a higher-capacity container more practical for certain tasks.

If you're putting together a storage system across multiple food groups or allergen categories and want to make sure you have the right sizes and clip colour allocation, we're happy to talk it through.

The Araven 30-litre polypropylene food storage container is a straightforward, practical solution for storing and organising food in commercial kitchens. It comes supplied with two sets of four colour-coded clips — red, yellow, green and blue — which secure the lid and allow teams to implement a simple colour-coding system for allergen management or food rotation without any additional labelling infrastructure.

Polypropylene is a practical choice for this application. It handles the temperature extremes of a working kitchen well, and the material is rated for freezer storage, making these containers suitable for both chilled prep areas and blast-freeze operations. The containers nest and stack securely, which matters when storage space is limited and containers are being moved in and out of fridges and freezers throughout service.

From an operational standpoint, these containers work well for bulk ingredient storage, portioned prep, and organised mise en place. The colour-clip system is particularly useful in kitchens managing allergen separation, as it provides a quick visual reference without relying solely on written labels. Key practical points include:

• Four-colour clip system supports allergen separation and food rotation protocols
• Freezer-safe construction handles deep storage without becoming brittle
• Secure stacking reduces storage footprint in fridges and walk-in coldrooms
• Polypropylene construction is straightforward to clean and sanitise
• Optional drainer plates available separately for fish and meat storage

These containers are well suited to most commercial kitchen types — from small independent kitchens through to larger catering operations and food production environments. At 30 litres, the capacity suits bulk prep and ingredient storage. If you regularly store larger volumes, higher-capacity options are available within the Araven range.

If you're building out a storage system and want guidance on sizing or colour-coding protocols, the team is happy to help you work through what you need.

The Araven 90-litre container is a large-capacity, wheeled food storage box designed for bulk ingredient storage and movement within commercial kitchens. It includes a built-in ventilation system, an integrated opening mechanism, and comes supplied with four pairs of colour-coded identification clips in red, yellow, green, and blue.

In a working kitchen, a container of this size is typically used for dry goods, bulk produce, or batched prepared ingredients that need to travel between walk-in stores, prep areas, and service points. The wheeled base removes the need to lift a fully loaded container, which is a practical consideration when staff are moving at pace during busy service. The ventilation supports airflow for goods that benefit from it, and the colour clip system provides a straightforward way to apply allergen segregation or FIFO rotation coding without relying on separate labels.

• Colour-coded clips support allergen management and stock rotation
• Wheeled base allows repositioning without lifting when fully loaded
• Built-in ventilation maintains airflow for appropriate stored goods
• Integrated opening system allows access without removing the lid entirely
• Robust construction suited to repeated daily use in high-throughput storage environments

At 90 litres, this container is best suited to medium- and high-volume operations with genuine bulk storage demands — contract catering, schools, event kitchens, and central production units being typical examples. For smaller kitchens where day-to-day handling is a priority, a smaller capacity in the same Araven range may be more practical. For very high-volume sites with more intensive storage requirements, it is worth discussing whether a broader storage system would serve better.

If you would like to talk through whether this container fits your current storage setup, the team is glad to help.

This is a large-format polypropylene food storage container from Araven, designed for bulk ingredient storage in commercial kitchens. At 70 litres it sits at the larger end of the Araven range, and at this size the container is fitted with wheels — a practical detail that makes a meaningful difference when you are moving it between a walk-in refrigerator, a dry store, and a prep station across a busy shift.

In practice, containers of this size are commonly used for bulk dry goods, prepped vegetables, marinated proteins, or batch items held ahead of service. The wheeled base reduces manual handling and the risk of spillage during those movements, which matters when the container is fully loaded. The built-in ventilation is integrated into the design rather than added as a separate component, and the lid system is straightforward to open and reseal during service.

The container comes supplied with four pairs of colour-coded identification clips in red, yellow, green, and blue. In a working kitchen, these support allergen management and food rotation procedures by allowing teams to identify contents at a glance without lifting the lid. Each colour can be assigned consistently to a food group or storage category, which is a small but genuinely useful detail in fast-moving prep environments.

• Colour-coded clips aid allergen separation and food labelling protocols
• Wheeled base reduces manual handling across multiple storage areas
• Built-in ventilation integrated into the lid design
• Stackable format supports efficient use of cold or dry storage space
• Smooth internal surfaces make cleaning between uses straightforward

This container suits medium to large operations with significant batch preparation or bulk storage requirements. Kitchens with lighter storage needs, or those with limited floor space, may find a smaller capacity from the same range a better fit. If you are working through your storage layout or allergen workflow and want a second opinion, we are happy to help before you commit.

This Araven 50-litre food storage container is a straightforward, practical solution for bulk dry and ambient food storage in commercial kitchens. It is a static box — no wheels on this size — with a built-in ventilation and opening system that allows controlled airflow while keeping contents protected. Each unit is supplied with four pairs of colour-coded identification clips in red, yellow, green, and blue.

In a working kitchen, consistent storage labelling is not just a matter of organisation — it directly supports allergen management and food safety compliance. The colour clip system allows teams to assign a colour to a food category, allergen group, or ingredient type, making visual identification quick even during a busy service. The ventilation design helps maintain appropriate conditions for dry goods stored over extended periods.

• Four colour-coded clip pairs (red, yellow, green, blue) for allergen and category identification
• Built-in ventilation system for controlled airflow around stored goods
• Stackable construction to make efficient use of dry store shelving
• Robust construction suited to daily handling in commercial environments
• Straightforward to clean down between uses

At this capacity, the container suits medium-volume dry stores, prep areas, or back-of-house ingredient storage. It works well in sites where bulk buying is common and ingredients need to be decanted from delivery packaging into clearly identified, food-safe containers. If your operation requires moving large quantities across the kitchen or between areas, the larger 70 and 90-litre versions in the same range are wheeled for easier transportation.

If you are building out a colour-coded storage system or are unsure which sizes best suit your storage layout, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Araven 40-litre food storage container is a large-capacity polypropylene box designed for bulk ingredient storage in commercial kitchens. It comes supplied with a secure lid and two sets of four colour-coded clips — in red, yellow, green and blue — allowing kitchens to implement allergen or food-type separation as part of their food safety regime.

Polypropylene construction makes these containers robust enough for daily service use. They withstand temperatures down to -40°C, so they're equally suited to blast chiller and deep-freeze environments as they are to standard cold room or walk-in fridge storage. The containers nest and stack securely, which matters in kitchens where storage space is tight and boxes are handled frequently during busy service periods.

In practical terms, a container of this size is well suited to storing prep ingredients in volume — portioned proteins, marinades, stock, prepared vegetables, or dry goods in high-turnover operations. The colour-clip system is a straightforward way to support HACCP-compliant separation without adding complexity to the workflow.

• Stacks and nests to make the most of limited cold storage space
• Colour-coded clips support allergen and food-type separation
• Freezer-safe construction for use across the full cold chain
• Lid included as standard, keeping contents protected during storage
• Smooth polypropylene surfaces clean down quickly between uses

For kitchens with lower prep volumes or more limited storage space, smaller-capacity containers in the same Araven range offer the same clip system and material quality. This 40-litre size is best suited to high-volume prep kitchens, central production units, or any operation storing large batches as part of a cook-chill process.

If you're not sure which size or how many containers fits your operation's storage layout, our team is happy to help you work it out.
