This Araven ingredient bin is a full 1/1 gastronorm polypropylene container designed to hold bulk ingredients at prep and service stations. The open-top format allows kitchen staff to scoop or portion directly from the bin without removing it from a stack, which suits high-turnover prep areas where speed and access matter.

The bin is built around a first-in, first-out rotation system. Stock is loaded from the rear and dispensed from the front, which helps teams maintain correct ingredient rotation without relying on labelling discipline alone. In busy kitchens where staff change frequently or service pressure is high, a bin that enforces rotation mechanically is more reliable than one that depends entirely on procedure.

Practically, the polypropylene construction is robust enough for daily commercial use, resists staining from most food products, and is dishwasher safe, which keeps cleaning straightforward. Colour-coded clips are supplied, allowing kitchens to assign bins to specific ingredient types or allergen categories — a useful feature where cross-contamination controls are part of the food safety plan.

  • Stackable design allows access to contents without unstacking
  • FIFO loading supports correct ingredient rotation in service
  • Dishwasher safe for straightforward end-of-shift cleaning
  • Colour-coded clips support allergen segregation systems
  • Standard 1/1 GN footprint fits most existing racks and cold drawers

This size is well suited to medium-volume prep operations and standard service lines. For higher-volume sites or walk-in storage where larger batch quantities are handled, it is worth considering whether a greater capacity suits the workflow better.

If you are fitting out a prep station or reviewing your ingredient storage arrangement and want to talk through what works in practice, our team is happy to help.

Frequently asked questions

Will this bin fit our existing gastronorm racks and cold drawers?

The bin follows the standard 1/1 gastronorm footprint, so it should seat correctly in most commercial GN racks, cold drawers, and prep table frames designed for full-size GN pans. It is always worth confirming the internal clearance of your specific equipment, particularly the depth, before ordering.

How does the FIFO system work in practice?

Ingredients are loaded into the rear of the bin and gravity-fed toward the front, so the oldest stock is always dispensed first. This happens mechanically without staff needing to manually rotate product, which makes it particularly useful in high-turnover kitchens or where multiple people are working the same station.

Can we use these bins as part of an allergen management system?

The colour-coded clips supplied with the bin allow you to assign specific colours to particular ingredients or allergen categories, helping reinforce visual separation across your prep stations. This works best as part of a broader allergen control procedure rather than as a standalone measure, but the clips provide a practical and visible cue for staff.
