These Araven polypropylene gastronorm containers are a practical storage solution for commercial kitchens that work to standard GN sizing. Supplied as a pack of four 1/4 GN units, they are designed to sit within gastronorm-compatible fridges, prep tables, bain-maries, and storage racks, making them straightforward to integrate into an existing kitchen setup.

Polypropylene construction makes these containers well suited to the full cold-chain workflow — from freezer storage through to refrigerated service prep — and they will tolerate the heat of a dishwasher cycle without warping or degrading. The wide temperature tolerance means a single container can move between freezer storage and warm holding conditions without issue, which reduces the number of separate vessels a kitchen needs to manage across a shift.

Each container comes supplied with a set of colour-coded clips and a permanent wipe-clean label, which supports allergen management and food rotation discipline without requiring additional labelling equipment. In kitchens operating HACCP-based systems, this kind of built-in identification goes a long way toward keeping prep sections organised during busy service.

  • Colour-coded clips support allergen separation and food rotation at a glance
  • Wipe-clean label allows contents and date marking without additional stickers
  • Dishwasher safe for quick turnaround between service periods
  • Compatible with standard GN refrigeration, prep tables, and storage racks

At 1/4 GN, these are best suited to smaller prep volumes, garnishes, sauces, and portioned ingredients rather than bulk storage. Kitchens with higher-volume storage requirements may find larger GN sizes more practical for principal ingredients.

If you are unsure which GN sizes and quantities best suit your workflow, we are happy to help you work through it.

Frequently asked questions

Are these containers suitable for use in refrigerated prep tables and gastronorm fridges?

Yes — as standard 1/4 GN units they are designed to drop into any gastronorm-compatible refrigeration or prep table. They will also sit correctly in bain-maries and countertop storage racks built to GN dimensions.

How do the colour-coding clips work in practice for allergen management?

Each pack includes clips in four colours — red, yellow, green, and blue — which clip onto the container rim to give a quick visual identifier for different allergen categories or food types. Combined with the wipe-clean label, this allows kitchen teams to maintain clear separation during prep and service without relying on separate labelling systems.

Are 1/4 GN containers the right size for general ingredient storage, or are larger sizes more practical?

At 1/4 GN, these containers are best suited to portioned ingredients, sauces, garnishes, and smaller prep quantities rather than bulk storage. For primary ingredients used in high volume, 1/2 GN or 1/1 GN sizes will typically offer more practical capacity — it is worth mapping your prep volumes before committing to a single GN size.
