Price Match

These Araven half gastronorm polypropylene containers are a reliable workhorse for food storage in commercial kitchens. Each 12.5-litre container is moulded to standard 1/2 GN dimensions, so they sit correctly in gastronorm-compatible shelving, refrigeration drawers, and prep station inserts without adjustment.

Polypropylene construction makes these containers well suited to the demands of a busy kitchen environment. They handle temperature extremes from well below freezing through to hot-hold service conditions, making them practical across cold storage, portioning, and mise en place preparation. The material is robust enough for daily handling by kitchen staff and resists staining from strongly coloured foods.

Each container in the pack includes a set of colour-coded clips and a wipe-clean label panel fixed to the exterior. This supports allergen management and rotation systems without relying on tape labels that peel or fade.

  • Colour-coded clip system supports allergen segregation and HACCP workflows
  • Permanent wipe-clean label panel on each container for clear identification
  • Airtight lid construction reduces cross-contamination risk in refrigeration
  • Compatible with standard gastronorm racking, inserts, and refrigeration units
  • Dishwasher safe for straightforward end-of-service cleaning

These containers are a practical choice for most commercial kitchens — from small independents through to contract catering operations. Sites with particularly high throughput or a need for very deep storage may find full GN or larger-capacity formats more appropriate for their volume.

If you have questions about which container sizes or quantities would work best for your storage setup, we are happy to talk it through.

Frequently asked questions

Are these containers suitable for use in a refrigeration unit or blast chiller?

Yes. The polypropylene material handles temperatures down to -40°C, so these containers are suitable for use in refrigeration, cold rooms, and blast chilling applications. The airtight lid helps maintain food quality and reduces the risk of cross-contamination during chilled storage.

How does the colour-coded clip system work in practice?

Each container comes with a set of four colour clips — red, yellow, green, and blue — which attach to the lid and body to create a visible colour code. Many kitchens use this to separate food types or allergen categories at a glance, which supports HACCP documentation and reduces handling errors during a busy service.

Will a pack of four be enough for a typical commercial prep section?

For a small to medium prep operation, a pack of four 1/2 GN containers provides a useful starting point, though most kitchens running multiple prep lines will want several packs to cover different ingredients or allergen categories simultaneously. If you are setting up a full storage system, it is worth considering how many active prep lines you run at peak service to get the right quantity.
