This Araven deep food storage tray is a straightforward, workhorse item found in prep areas, walk-in cold rooms, and blast chiller racking across a wide range of commercial kitchens. Made from high-density polyethylene, it is designed to handle the daily demands of a busy kitchen environment without warping, cracking, or absorbing odours over time.

HDPE construction means the tray holds up reliably at freezer temperatures and returns to service without degradation. Its depth makes it useful for storing portioned proteins, prepped vegetables, sauces, and other bulk ingredients where a shallower tray would not be practical. The stackable design helps keep cold storage organised and maximises shelf space — a consistent advantage in kitchens where cold room real estate is limited.

  • Dishwasher safe, which keeps cleaning straightforward during turnaround
  • Stackable for efficient use of shelf and cold room space
  • Suitable for freezer storage, making it versatile across different storage areas
  • Lightweight at 160g, easy to handle during busy service prep

These trays are sold individually, so operators can build up quantities to match their storage rotation and prep volumes. They are well suited to kitchens that need a reliable, no-fuss storage solution rather than a complex system. For sites with very high throughput or specific GN compatibility requirements, it is worth checking whether a GN-format container system might better suit your racking and trolley setup.

If you are unsure which size or quantity works best for your prep workflow, the team is happy to help you think it through.

Frequently asked questions

Are these trays compatible with standard GN racking or trolleys?

These trays are not GN-format containers, so they will not slot directly into standard GN racking systems. They work well on flat shelving in cold rooms, walk-in fridges, and on prep tables, but if your storage setup is built around GN compatibility, it is worth checking whether a GN container range would integrate more cleanly with your existing racking.

How well do these hold up in a high-turnover kitchen environment?

High-density polyethylene is a practical material choice for commercial use — it resists cracking under cold conditions and does not absorb food odours over time. Running them through a commercial dishwasher daily is fine, and most kitchens find they hold up well with normal operational handling.

How many trays should I order for a typical prep and storage rotation?

That depends on your menu, prep frequency, and cold storage capacity. A common approach is to calculate the number of ingredient lines you prep in advance, then allow enough trays for at least one full rotation plus spares in the wash cycle. If you are unsure, the team can help you work through a sensible starting quantity based on your operation.
