This Thunder Group GN 1/4 solid stainless steel pan is a standard gastronorm pan sized to fit the quarter-size position within a full GN system. At 100mm in depth, it sits at the deeper end of the GN 1/4 range, making it well suited to holding a reasonable volume of food without taking up excessive counter or bain marie space.

Stainless steel construction makes these pans practical for everyday commercial use — they handle the temperature swings of hot holding and cold storage, clean down quickly at the end of service, and hold up to regular dishwasher cycling without warping or staining under normal conditions. The 100mm depth makes them a useful choice where a shallower pan would run dry too quickly during a busy service period.

Common uses in commercial kitchens include:

  • Hot holding in bain maries and gastronorm counters during service
  • Cold storage in refrigerated prep units and blast chillers
  • Mise en place and ingredient organisation during prep
  • Transport of prepped food from kitchen to service point
  • Buffet and carvery displays in appropriate heated or chilled units

GN 1/4 pans of this depth fit the majority of standard gastronorm-compatible equipment. It is worth confirming your unit accepts 100mm pans where your existing setup uses shallower configurations, as some counters and lids are sized around 65mm or 40mm depth. For operations needing greater capacity in a single vessel, larger GN sizes are available within the range.

If you are building out or replacing a set of pans and want to make sure the sizes and depths work across your existing equipment, the team is happy to talk it through.

Frequently asked questions

Will this pan fit my existing bain marie or gastronorm counter?

GN 1/4 is a standardised size, so the pan will fit the quarter-size aperture of any gastronorm-compatible unit. The key check is depth — some counters and lids are designed around shallower pans, typically 65mm, so confirm your unit accommodates 100mm depth before ordering.

Is this pan suitable for both hot holding and cold storage?

Yes. Stainless steel gastronorm pans are commonly used across both hot and cold applications, including bain maries, heated counters, refrigerated prep units, and blast chillers. They are not intended for direct oven or flame use in this format.

How many of these pans would a typical service operation need?

That depends on your menu, service style, and how frequently you cycle through washing. Most kitchens run at least two sets — one in service and one in prep or washing — and buffet or carvery operations often carry more to allow quick swaps during service. If you are unsure what quantities make sense for your setup, the team can advise.
