The APS Superbox is a solid acacia wood crate sized to a GN 2/4 footprint, designed for use on commercial buffet and breakfast counters. It can be used upright as a display trough for bread rolls, pastries, cutlery or condiments, or turned upside down to act as a simple riser that lifts other items to a second level on the counter. The black finish gives it a relatively neutral appearance that sits comfortably alongside most buffet presentation styles.

In a busy service environment, the practical value of a crate like this is in the flexibility it offers during setup and breakdown. Staff can quickly reposition it, invert it, or stack items within it without any particular care — it is a straightforward, robust piece of kit rather than a delicate display accessory. The acacia wood construction is solid enough for repeated daily use in hotel breakfast, carvery, or catering buffet settings.

  • GN 2/4 format slots neatly into standard buffet counter layouts
  • Invertible design doubles as a display riser without additional kit
  • Solid acacia wood construction withstands repeated daily use
  • Black finish suits a wide range of buffet presentation styles
  • Lightweight enough for quick repositioning during service

Being a natural wood product, it should be hand-washed and dried rather than put through a dishwasher, and occasional oiling will help maintain the wood's condition over time. It is not suitable for direct contact with wet or hot foods without appropriate liners.

This crate is well suited to hotels, event caterers, cafés, and restaurants running buffet or self-service counters. The GN 2/4 footprint means it integrates easily where other GN-format equipment is already in use. For operators needing wider or deeper crate formats, other sizes are available in the same Superbox range.

If you are planning a buffet counter layout and want to talk through how these fit alongside your other equipment, the team is happy to help.

Frequently asked questions

Can this crate be used directly with food, or does it need a liner?

Being a natural wood product, it is best used with a liner — such as a cloth, board, or GN tray — when displaying foods directly in it, particularly anything wet or oily. This also makes cleaning between services more straightforward and helps protect the wood over time.

Is this crate dishwasher safe?

No — like most solid wood buffet accessories, it should be hand-washed and thoroughly dried after each use. Repeated dishwasher cycles will cause the wood to warp, crack, or degrade. Occasional light oiling will help maintain its condition with regular use.

How does the GN 2/4 size work in practice on a buffet counter?

A GN 2/4 footprint is exactly half the length of a GN 1/2 in one direction, which means it fits neatly into standard GN-based buffet tray slides and counter layouts. It is a slender, elongated format — useful for lining up along the front of a counter or filling narrow gaps in an existing arrangement.
