This Araven GN 1/3 food storage container is a straightforward, practical solution for storing and rotating food in a commercial kitchen. Made from ABS plastic and sized to the standard GN 1/3 footprint, it fits directly into most prep tables, refrigerated drawers, and cold wells designed for gastronorm kit. The blue colour coding makes it easy to apply HACCP-based food separation systems without additional labelling effort.

In day-to-day kitchen use, containers like this take a great deal of handling — moving between cold storage, prep areas, and service. The ABS construction holds up well under regular use and the temperature tolerance from -40°C to 90°C means it can move comfortably from a freezer into a bain marie or hot holding situation without issue. It is also microwave and dishwasher safe, which reduces handling time during service turnaround.

Each container comes supplied with a set of colour-coded clips and a permanent wipe-clean label, supporting straightforward date and content identification for food safety compliance. Practical operational benefits include:

  • Blue colour coding supports HACCP food separation protocols
  • Wipe-clean label aids consistent date rotation and content tracking
  • Dishwasher safe for fast, hygienic cleaning between services
  • GN 1/3 sizing integrates directly with standard refrigeration and prep equipment
  • Freezer to hot holding tolerance removes the need for multiple container types

These containers suit most commercial kitchen environments — from small independent kitchens through to high-volume operations. For sites needing greater storage depth or volume, deeper GN alternatives are worth considering. Equally, operations working primarily with larger batch quantities may find a GN 1/2 or full GN size more practical day-to-day.

If you are building out a colour-coded storage system or are unsure which combination of GN sizes suits your workflow, the team is happy to talk it through.

Frequently asked questions

Can this container be used directly in a bain marie or hot holding unit?

Yes, the ABS material is rated up to 90°C, which covers most hot holding and bain marie operating temperatures. It is worth confirming your unit's operating temperature sits within that range before placing the container in direct contact with heat sources.

How does the colour coding work in practice for food safety compliance?

The blue colour designates a specific food type or allergen category within a HACCP-based system — commonly used for fish or to distinguish a particular allergen group, though your kitchen's own HACCP plan will determine the allocation. The included set of four colour-coded clips means you can also label lids across multiple categories from a single pack.

Is a GN 1/3 150mm container the right depth for general prep and storage use?

The 150mm depth suits medium-volume storage of sauces, prepped ingredients, and portioned items, and is one of the more versatile sizes for a busy prep kitchen. For bulk batch storage or larger volumes, a deeper GN 1/3 or a wider GN size is likely to be more practical.
