Matfer Bourgeat

These elbow-length leather mitts from Matfer Bourgeat are a straightforward piece of hand and forearm protection designed for oven work in commercial bakery and kitchen environments. Reaching to approximately 430mm in length, they provide coverage well beyond the wrist, which matters when reaching into deck ovens, rack ovens, or any deep oven cavity where a standard oven cloth falls short.

Leather is a well-proven material for this application. It holds up to repeated exposure to dry oven heat, resists minor abrasions from oven racks and trays, and remains practical to use with bulky bakeware. The extended length reduces the risk of forearm contact with oven door edges or interior surfaces during service — a common source of minor burns when operators are working quickly under pressure.

Practical advantages for kitchen teams include:

• Elbow-length coverage for safer reach into deep oven cavities
• Leather construction that withstands sustained daily use
• Sold in pairs, ready for immediate use
• Suitable for handling hot trays, tins, and bakeware
• Straightforward to store on a hook or rail between uses

These mitts are best suited to bakeries, hotel kitchens, and catering operations where deck ovens or rack ovens are in regular use. For kitchens handling very high-temperature steam work or frequent contact with wet heat, a specialist steam-rated glove may be more appropriate — leather mitts are designed primarily for dry oven heat.

If you are unsure whether these are the right choice for your specific oven type or working environment, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Matfer Bourgeat Exoglass dariole mould is a standard individual portion mould used in professional pastry and dessert work. At 55mm in both height and diameter, it is the classic size for steamed puddings, set creams, individual fondants, and similar plated dessert components. This listing supplies a pack of six moulds, which suits batch preparation across a typical service run.

Exoglass is a composite material developed specifically for professional kitchen use. It combines the heat distribution properties useful in baking with genuine non-stick release — generally without the need for greasing — which makes it practical when producing consistent, clean-edged portions at volume. The material is robust enough to resist the knocks of a busy larder or pastry section, and it holds its shape rather than warping or deforming over time. It is also dishwasher safe, which helps keep turnover moving between service periods.

• Non-stick Exoglass composite construction for reliable portion release
• Retains shape under repeated heating and cooling cycles
• Dishwasher safe for straightforward post-service cleaning
• Unbreakable composite material suited to heavy daily use
• Consistent 55mm sizing supports uniform plated dessert production

These moulds are well suited to hotel kitchens, restaurant pastry sections, and event catering operations where individual dessert portions are prepared in batches. The pack-of-six format works comfortably for smaller operations or as a starting quantity; kitchens producing at higher volume would typically stock multiple packs to maintain throughput without waiting on wash cycles.

There are no particular installation requirements — these are freestanding smallwares — though it is worth confirming oven compatibility for your specific application, as Exoglass has defined temperature limits. If you are unsure whether this size and material is right for your dessert programme, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

This is a small-head natural bristle pastry brush from Matfer Bourgeat, designed for detailed glazing, egg-washing, and basting tasks in professional pastry and bakery environments. The 15mm round head provides a focused application area, making it well suited to intricate work where a wider brush would be too imprecise.

Natural bristles hold and release liquid evenly, which is particularly useful when applying egg wash to delicate pastry or brushing sugar syrups onto fine confectionery. The round-head format gives good control in tight areas — around lattice work, small tart cases, or individual pastries on a busy production line.

• Natural bristles for even liquid distribution across glazing tasks
• 15mm head suited to detailed, precise application work
• Lightweight at 40g, reducing hand fatigue during repetitive tasks
• Practical choice for patisserie, bakery, and pastry sections

As with all natural bristle brushes, they require careful cleaning and should not be left soaking. They are best hand-washed and dried flat or bristle-down to preserve the head shape and prolong working life. If your operation runs heavy volumes and brushes go through the dishwasher routinely, a synthetic bristle alternative may be worth considering.

This brush is best suited to patisserie sections, artisan bakeries, and pastry kitchens where precision and finish quality matter. For broader basting or high-volume production glazing, a wider brush head from the same range may be more practical.

If you are building out a pastry section and are unsure which brush sizes best cover your range of work, the team is happy to help you put together a practical set.

This is a replacement or additional lid from Matfer Bourgeat, sized at 280mm and made from stainless steel. It is designed to fit both the Excellence and Tradition Plus saucepan ranges, making it a practical option for kitchens already using Matfer Bourgeat cookware that need to replace a lost or damaged lid, or simply add extra covers to existing stock.

In a working kitchen, having the right lid for each pan matters more than it might seem. A correctly fitting lid retains heat and moisture during holding, reduces cooking times, and keeps the pass cleaner by limiting steam and splatter. Stainless steel construction holds up well under the repeated heat, stacking, and general handling that commercial cookware endures through a busy service.

• Fits both Excellence and Tradition Plus saucepan ranges from Matfer Bourgeat
• Stainless steel construction suited to the demands of daily commercial use
• Helps retain heat and moisture during cooking and holding
• Straightforward to clean and stack with existing pan stock

This lid is best suited to kitchens already equipped with compatible Matfer Bourgeat saucepans. It is worth confirming your pan model before ordering — if you are unsure which lid size corresponds to your existing cookware, our team is happy to help you match it correctly.

The Matfer Bourgeat Excellence boiling pot is a straightforward, well-made stainless steel pot designed for everyday use in professional kitchens. At 7 litres, it sits in a practical mid-range size — large enough to handle stocks, sauces, blanching tasks, and bulk boiling of vegetables, but manageable enough to work comfortably on a standard range burner or induction hob.

Matfer Bourgeat have a long-standing reputation in professional cookware, and the Excellence range reflects that — built to withstand the rigours of daily kitchen use without the excessive weight that slows down busy kitchen teams. The stainless steel construction resists staining and is straightforward to clean, which matters when a pot is turning over multiple services a day.

In practical terms, this pot works well across a range of common kitchen tasks:

• Boiling and blanching vegetables during prep and service
• Preparing stocks and broths in small to mid-sized batches
• Holding and reheating sauces at the pass
• General prep tasks requiring a reliable, mid-capacity vessel

It is induction compatible, which makes it suitable for kitchens running induction ranges as well as conventional gas or electric hobs. There are no special installation requirements — this is a direct-use piece of equipment that requires no fixed connection.

The 7-litre capacity is well suited to smaller operations, solo chefs, or as a secondary pot in larger kitchens. Sites with consistently higher volume output — large contract catering operations or high-throughput production kitchens — may find a larger capacity more appropriate for their needs.

If you are building out a cookware set or want to make sure this size fits your typical batch volumes, we are happy to help you work through what makes sense for your kitchen.

This set of twelve assorted piping tips from Matfer Bourgeat is a practical addition to any pastry section. Made from polycarbonate, the tips cover a range of nozzle profiles suitable for cream work, buttercream decoration, choux pastry, meringue, and general piping tasks across both hot and cold applications.

Polycarbonate is a well-established material choice for professional piping tips. It is robust enough to withstand daily use in a busy pastry kitchen without warping or cracking, and the smooth internal bore helps maintain consistent pressure and clean lines when piping. Unlike softer plastic alternatives, polycarbonate tips hold their shape reliably across repeated use and cleaning cycles.

• Assorted nozzle profiles covering a range of decorative and functional piping tasks
• Polycarbonate construction — durable under daily professional use
• Compatible with standard piping bags used in commercial pastry sections
• Easy to clean by hand or in a commercial dishwasher
• Lightweight and straightforward to handle during long service periods

These tips are well suited to patisseries, hotel pastry kitchens, bakeries, and catering operations where a variety of piping work is carried out regularly. For operations with very high-volume decoration output or specialist piping requirements, it is worth considering whether a more targeted set of tips — or a larger quantity pack — would better serve the workflow.

If you are unsure which piping tips or accessories best suit your pastry section's needs, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

This is a full-size 1/1 gastronorm lid in stainless steel, designed to sit securely on Matfer Bourgeat 1/1 GN pans and prevent spills during transport, storage, or holding. The spill proof design provides a more reliable seal than a standard flat lid, making it practical wherever liquids or sauces need to be moved safely around a busy kitchen.

In day-to-day service, a well-fitting gastronorm lid makes a genuine difference. It reduces the risk of contamination during cold storage, helps retain heat when holding foods prior to service, and keeps prep areas tidier when pans are being carried between sections. Stainless steel construction means it can go through a commercial dishwasher without warping or degrading over time.

• Spill proof profile reduces spillage risk when transporting filled pans
• Compatible with Matfer Bourgeat full-size 1/1 GN containers
• Stainless steel withstands repeated commercial dishwasher cycles
• Suitable for use in cold storage, hot holding, and food transport
• Straightforward to stack and store when not in use

There are no installation requirements — this lid is ready to use alongside your existing gastronorm pan stock. It is worth confirming compatibility if you are using 1/1 GN pans from other manufacturers, as fitment can vary between brands.

This lid is well suited to any operation using Matfer Bourgeat 1/1 gastronorm pans, from hotel kitchens and contract caterers to school and healthcare catering. If you need lids for other GN sizes or are building out a full pan and lid system, the team are happy to help you find the right combination.

The Matfer Bourgeat Tradition saucepan is a straightforward piece of professional cookware built around a Japanese steel cooking surface and an aluminium sandwich base. The Japanese steel interior provides an even, responsive cooking plane, while the sandwiched aluminium core improves heat distribution across the base — reducing the hot spots that cause sauces and stocks to catch during sustained service periods.

At this diameter and capacity, the pan is intended for high-volume hob work rather than occasional use. Whether it's running a sauce station through a busy dinner service, batch-cooking stocks, or holding reductions over a prolonged period, the construction is built to cope with daily repetitive use without warping or degrading. The stainless steel finish resists staining and stands up reliably to commercial washing cycles.

From an operational standpoint, the practical advantages are:

• Aluminium sandwich base promotes even heat distribution and reduces the risk of scorching
• Stainless steel construction is durable, hygienic, and straightforward to clean
• Elongated stainless steel handle allows confident movement around a busy pass
• Compatible with most commercial hob types, including induction where the base is suitably bonded

One practical consideration at this size: the pan benefits from a burner or induction zone that can cover the base evenly. Undersized rings will compromise heat distribution and partly negate the advantage of the sandwich base. At 5kg before any contents are added, it is also worth thinking about how frequently kitchen staff will be lifting and manoeuvring it during service.

This pan suits operations running consistent, high-volume sauce or stock work — professional kitchens, contract catering, and hotel operations where a large, reliable vessel is in daily use. For kitchens with lighter or less frequent saucepan demands, smaller pans within the Tradition range may be a more practical and cost-appropriate fit.

If you're building out a batterie de cuisine or want to work through which sizes and quantities suit your specific operation, the team is always glad to talk it through.

The Matfer Bourgeat round bottom whipping bowl is a professional-grade stainless steel bowl designed specifically for hand and machine whisking. The rounded base profile eliminates dead corners, allowing a whisk to follow the full curve of the bowl and incorporate air or combine ingredients consistently throughout. At 6.5 litres, it offers a practical working capacity for cream, meringue, egg whites, batters, and similar preparations.

In a working pastry section or busy prep kitchen, the rounded form makes a genuine difference. There are no flat-bottomed edges where mixture can sit unworked, which helps achieve more even results and reduces the effort required during extended whipping. The stainless steel construction handles the rigours of daily use without warping, staining, or retaining odours, and the bowl cleans quickly under a commercial dishwasher or at the sink.

• Rounded base ensures full whisk coverage with no unmixed corners
• Stainless steel construction resists staining and is odour-neutral
• Suitable for hand whisking and bench mixer use
• Easy to clean and dishwasher safe
• Robust enough for continuous daily use in professional kitchens

At 300mm in diameter and 150mm in depth, this bowl fits comfortably on a standard prep bench and stores without taking up excessive space. It is worth confirming compatibility if you intend to use it with a specific bench mixer, as bowl dimensions and fitment vary between machine models and manufacturers.

This size is well suited to patisserie sections, bakery prep, and smaller production kitchens where a reliable, everyday mixing bowl is needed. Kitchens producing at higher volumes or requiring larger batch sizes may find a bigger capacity more practical.

If you are unsure whether this size is right for your workflow, the team is happy to help you think it through.

The Matfer Bourgeat Exopan range is a long-established workhorse in professional pastry kitchens, and these steel ramekins are a practical example of that. At 90mm in diameter and 40mm deep, they are a standard individual-portion size commonly used for quiches, tarts, flans, mousses, and similar preparations that require a defined shape during baking or setting.

Steel construction means these ramekins conduct and distribute heat evenly, which matters in a pastry environment where consistent results across a batch are expected as a matter of course. The Exopan non-stick coating — the defining feature of this range — helps with clean release and reduces the time spent preparing moulds before each use, which adds up across a busy service or a high-volume pastry operation.

• Even heat distribution supports consistent results across batch baking
• Non-stick Exopan coating aids clean release without heavy greasing
• Lightweight steel construction is easy to handle at speed
• Individual portion size suits plated desserts and starters
• Sold in pairs, making it straightforward to stock in quantity

Being steel, these are not suited to front-of-house presentation or table service in the way ceramic ramekins might be — they are a production and baking tool. They are also lightweight at 110g each, so they are well suited to kitchens where speed of handling matters. For sites producing individual portions at volume, they stack efficiently and are easy to manage during service prep.

These ramekins are a sensible choice for pastry sections, bakeries, and catering operations producing individual baked or set desserts regularly. Sites needing a ceramic or porcelain finish for direct table service should consider that as a separate requirement. If you are unsure whether this size or material suits your production style, the team is happy to talk it through.

The Matfer Bourgeat Tradition Plus Wok is a heavy-duty stainless steel wok designed for professional kitchen use. At 35cm in diameter with a 5-litre capacity, it sits comfortably in the mid-range for commercial wok cookware — large enough for meaningful batch cooking, manageable enough for a single-portion stir-fry when needed. It is compatible with all cooking surfaces, including induction, making it a practical choice for kitchens running mixed hob configurations.

In a busy service environment, the construction holds up well under repeated daily use. Stainless steel at this gauge retains and distributes heat reliably, and the reinforced non-drip edge reduces spillage during fast, high-heat cooking. The stay-cool handle remains safe to grip throughout service without the need for a cloth, which matters when pace is high and hands are occupied. The 1.72kg weight is substantial enough to feel stable on the hob without being unwieldy during tossing or plating.

• Induction-compatible base works across all common hob types
• Reinforced non-drip edge reduces spillage during high-heat cooking
• Stay-cool handle remains safe to grip throughout service
• Robust stainless steel construction tolerates heavy daily use
• Straightforward to clean and maintain between services

From an installation and practical standpoint, there is little to consider beyond ensuring your hob output is appropriate for the cooking style. Wok cooking at high heat benefits from a powerful burner or high-output induction zone; the pan itself imposes no special requirements. Note that lids are sold separately, so factor that in if covered simmering or holding is part of the intended use.

This wok suits professional kitchens where stainless steel is preferred over carbon steel for durability and ease of maintenance — typically hotels, contract caterers, pub kitchens, and staff restaurants. It is well suited to moderate-volume Asian or fusion menus. For sites producing very high volumes of wok-cooked dishes throughout service, a larger or heavier-duty pan may be worth considering.

If you are unsure whether this size is the right fit for your menu or service volume, we are happy to talk it through before you order.

The Matfer Bourgeat Tradition Plus Boiling Pan is a professional-grade stainless steel pan designed for everyday use in commercial kitchens. At 17 litres, it sits in the mid-range of Matfer's Tradition Plus line — large enough for substantial batch cooking, but manageable enough for a single cook to handle safely during service.

In practice, this pan is well suited to stockpots, sauces, blanching vegetables, and general wet cookery where a reliable, even-heating vessel is needed throughout a busy shift. The reinforced non-drip edge reduces mess when transferring liquids, and the heavy-gauge stainless steel construction holds up to the kind of daily use that lighter pans struggle with over time. It is compatible with all cooking surfaces, including induction, which makes it a practical choice for kitchens running induction hobs alongside conventional ranges.

Key operational features include:

• Induction-compatible base — works across all hob types without additional adaptors
• Reinforced non-drip edge with an ultra-thick bumper to reduce spillage when pouring
• Stay-cool, watertight handles for safer handling during service
• Robust construction suited to repeated high-temperature use and commercial washing
• Lids available separately, allowing operators to spec the pan independently

Being a mid-capacity pan, it is worth considering your typical batch sizes before ordering. For sites preparing stock or large-volume soups in single batches, a larger pan from the same range may reduce the number of cooking cycles needed. Conversely, for smaller operations or where multiple pans are used simultaneously across a range, 17 litres is a practical size to work with.

If you are unsure whether this capacity is the right fit for your kitchen's service volumes or hob configuration, our team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Matfer Bourgeat Elvea spatula is a professional-grade turning and spreading tool built around Matfer's Exoglass composite material. Exoglass is a glass fibre reinforced composite that resists both heat and repeated mechanical stress better than standard nylon or polypropylene, making it a practical choice for busy kitchen environments where utensils take sustained daily use. The blade is formed from thermoplastic elastomer, giving it the controlled flexibility needed for lifting, folding, and spreading across flat surfaces without tearing or distorting food.

In a working kitchen, the combination of a rigid Exoglass handle and a pliable blade means the tool behaves predictably under pressure. The handle won't soften near hot surfaces, and the blade flexes consistently rather than stiffening over time as some cheaper plastics do. At 450mm overall length, there is sufficient reach to work safely over hot pans and flat tops without bringing hands too close to the heat source.

• Exoglass handle resists heat, impact, and repeated dishwasher cycles
• Thermoplastic elastomer blade provides controlled, consistent flex
• Length keeps hands clear of hot cooking surfaces
• Lightweight at 92g, reducing hand fatigue during longer service periods
• Non-reactive materials suited to use across a wide range of foods

This spatula is well suited to catering operations that go through utensils quickly and need tools that hold up to commercial dishwashers without warping or degrading. It is a practical everyday tool rather than a specialist item, appropriate for general larder, pastry, and hot section work alike.

If you're equipping a kitchen from scratch or reviewing your smallwares inventory, the team is happy to talk through what works well in practice.

This is a standard 1/2 gastronorm pan in stainless steel, manufactured by Matfer Bourgeat to the universal GN sizing system. The 100mm depth makes it a versatile mid-depth option — deep enough to hold a reasonable volume of product, but practical enough for counter-top display, bain marie service, and refrigerated storage without taking up unnecessary vertical space.

In day-to-day kitchen use, 1/2 GN pans at this depth handle a wide range of tasks well. They sit comfortably in most bain maries, hot cupboards, blast chillers, and gastronorm-compatible refrigeration. The stainless steel construction handles the repeated thermal cycling of commercial kitchens without warping, and it cleans down quickly at the end of service — an important consideration when trays are in constant rotation.

• Compatible with standard GN-sized equipment across hot and cold applications
• Suitable for prep, service, and refrigerated storage
• Stainless steel construction handles repeated washing and thermal cycling
• Straightforward to stack and store when not in use

There are no unusual installation or equipment requirements. These pans will fit any unit built to the GN standard. It is worth confirming internal depth clearances on your existing equipment if you are mixing tray depths across a service line.

This size and depth is a practical everyday choice for most commercial kitchens, from smaller operations up to high-volume sites. Kitchens with very specific volume or depth requirements may find a shallower or deeper option better suited to their workflow. If you are building out a full gastronorm system or are unsure which depths to standardise on, we are happy to talk it through.

The Matfer Bourgeat Exoglass tart ring is a professional pastry ring made from Exoglass, a composite material developed specifically for commercial baking and patisserie work. Unlike standard stainless steel rings, Exoglass is non-reactive, dimensionally stable under heat, and releases cleanly without the need for greasing in most applications — a practical advantage during high-volume pastry production.

In a busy patisserie or kitchen pastry section, consistency matters. Exoglass rings retain their shape over prolonged use and repeated thermal cycling, which means tart cases come out uniform batch after batch. The material does not warp or corrode, and because it is dishwasher safe, cleaning between services is straightforward without any special handling.

• Non-stick surface releases cleanly without greasing in most applications
• Retains precise shape under repeated heat cycles
• Dishwasher safe and resistant to staining or corrosion
• Lightweight composite construction — unbreakable under normal kitchen use
• Compatible with standard oven temperatures used in professional pastry work

At 160mm this ring is a practical size for individual or shareable tart portions, and it is commonly used in restaurant pastry sections, hotel kitchens, and patisserie production environments. It is worth noting that for grooved Exoglass rings, light greasing is still recommended — the standard smooth ring is the non-stick variant.

If you are building out a pastry section and need guidance on which ring sizes or quantities suit your production volumes, the team is happy to talk it through.

The Matfer Bourgeat Tradition stockpot is a professional stainless steel cooking vessel intended for stock, sauce, and batch cooking in commercial kitchens. At 24 litres, it occupies a practical working size — sufficient for consistent batch production without becoming difficult to manage on a busy range.

Stainless steel construction gives the pot the durability expected from cookware in daily professional use. It handles repeated thermal cycling without issue and holds up well under the demands of a working kitchen environment. Compatibility with all hob types, including induction, means it can be used across a range of kitchen setups without the need for dedicated burners or specialist equipment.

For kitchen operators, the practical advantages include:

• Works across all hob types, including induction, gas, and solid top ranges
• Stainless steel resists corrosion and cleans down efficiently at the end of service
• A working capacity suited to stock, soups, and sauce production in regular batch volumes
• Robust enough for daily use without special handling or storage requirements
• Straightforward to integrate into existing cookware workflows

There are no infrastructure requirements to consider — this is a freestanding pot that works with your existing range or hob. At just over 8kg empty, it is a substantial piece of cookware, and operators should be mindful of handling when the pot is full. The lid is sold separately, so factor that in when placing an order.

This stockpot is well suited to hotels, restaurants, pub kitchens, and catering operations where batch cooking is a routine part of service. For sites producing at higher volumes or running multiple pots simultaneously, larger-capacity options are available within the Matfer Bourgeat range.

If you are putting together a cookware set or want to confirm whether this capacity is right for your service volumes, the team is happy to talk it through.

This is a replacement or additional stainless steel lid from Matfer Bourgeat, sized at 200mm diameter to fit their Excellence and Tradition Plus saucepan ranges. It is a straightforward, well-made piece of cookware hardware designed to do one job reliably in a busy professional kitchen.

In day-to-day service, a properly fitting lid makes a practical difference — retaining heat during holding, reducing evaporation on stocks and sauces, and keeping lids paired consistently with the right pans helps maintain an orderly section. Stainless steel construction stands up to the knocks and heat cycles of a working kitchen without warping or discolouring over time.

• Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and heavy daily use
• Secure fit across the 200mm Excellence and Tradition Plus pan range
• Retains heat during holding and reduces moisture loss
• Easy to clean and compatible with commercial dishwashers
• Consistent sizing helps keep matching lids organised on a busy section

There are no significant installation considerations for a pan lid of this type. It is worth confirming compatibility with your existing Matfer Bourgeat pans before ordering — this lid is designed specifically for the 200mm Excellence and Tradition Plus range and may not seat correctly on other pan brands or non-matching diameters.

This lid is well suited to any professional kitchen already working with the Matfer Bourgeat Excellence or Tradition Plus range, whether as a direct replacement for a lost or damaged lid or to build out a matched set. If you are equipping a kitchen from scratch or are unsure which Matfer Bourgeat pan range suits your operation, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

Matfer Bourgeat's Exoglass tart rings are a reliable choice for patisserie and pastry work in professional kitchens. Made from Exoglass — a composite material developed specifically for food production environments — these 90mm rings are designed to withstand the repeated thermal cycling and mechanical handling that commercial use demands. They come in a pack of six, which suits batch production and helps maintain consistency across a service.

In practice, Exoglass rings hold their shape reliably through baking, which is particularly important when producing uniform tarts or individual pastry bases at volume. The material provides good heat distribution and browning without the brittleness associated with some ceramic or glass alternatives. Unlike metal rings, they won't corrode or discolour, and the non-stick properties of the Exoglass composite reduce the need for greasing in most applications — a small but worthwhile time saving across a busy production shift.

• Consistent shape retention supports uniform portion presentation across a batch
• Non-stick composite reduces prep time and aids clean release
• Dishwasher safe, simplifying the cleaning cycle in busy kitchens
• Composite construction resists corrosion and staining over time
• Pack of six supports batch working without additional outlay

These rings sit in the oven directly on a baking sheet or perforated mat and require no specialist setup. The 90mm diameter suits individual dessert portions and is a common size for restaurant plating. They are not suitable for use on induction surfaces and, like all composite bakeware, should be kept away from sharp utensils that could score the surface over time.

Well suited to patisserie sections, hotel banqueting kitchens, and any operation producing individual tart portions at scale. For kitchens requiring a smaller or larger format, other sizes in the Exoglass range are worth considering.

If you are building out a pastry section and want to talk through quantities or formats, the team is happy to help.

The Matfer Bourgeat Exoglass spatula is a 305mm general-purpose kitchen spatula made from Exoglass, a composite material developed specifically for professional food preparation. Unlike standard nylon or polypropylene utensils, Exoglass is non-porous, odour-resistant, and does not discolour or degrade with regular use in a working kitchen environment.

In day-to-day service, this spatula handles straightforward mixing, folding, and scraping tasks reliably. The Exoglass material is well suited to contact with warm preparations, and the construction holds up to the kind of repeated use and cleaning cycles that quickly wear out cheaper alternatives. It is a practical workhorse tool rather than a specialist piece of kit.

• Non-porous Exoglass material resists odour absorption and staining
• Suitable for use with warm food preparations
• Easy to clean thoroughly, supporting kitchen hygiene compliance
• Consistent performance across repeated use and wash cycles
• Lightweight enough for extended prep work without hand fatigue

This spatula is well suited to professional kitchens of any size — from small prep kitchens and cafés through to high-volume catering operations. It is a standard, reliable choice for general food prep and sauce work. For operations with very specific requirements around heat resistance or rigidity, it is worth considering whether a different profile or material would better suit the task.

If you are equipping a kitchen from scratch or want to make sure you are selecting the right utensils for your workflow, we are happy to help point you in the right direction.

The Matfer Bourgeat Excellence boiling pot is a professional-grade stainless steel pot designed for everyday use in commercial kitchens. Straightforward in purpose, it handles the routine but essential tasks that keep a kitchen running — boiling stocks, blanching vegetables, reducing sauces, and preparing bulk quantities of starchy sides such as potatoes, pasta, or rice.

In practice, a pot of this capacity suits smaller brigades well. It holds a useful working volume without becoming unwieldy to lift and manoeuvre during service, which matters when the pot is full and the pass is busy. The stainless steel construction holds up to repeated high-temperature use, commercial dishwasher cycles, and the general wear of a working kitchen. Matfer Bourgeat's Excellence range carries a ten-year warranty, which reflects the build quality you would expect from a professional cookware line rather than a catering trade commodity.

A few points worth noting before purchase:

• Compatible with induction hobs as well as gas and electric ranges
• Suitable for oven use where required
• Stainless steel construction resists staining and is straightforward to clean
• The 3.06kg empty weight remains manageable even when scaled to full capacity
• Backed by a ten-year manufacturer warranty

For smaller operations or prep kitchens where one pot covers multiple tasks, this size works well. Sites running higher volumes — large central production units, high-throughput event catering, or busy restaurant service with substantial batch cooking demands — may find a larger capacity pot the more practical choice to reduce the number of batches required.

If you are unsure whether this size suits your menu or service volume, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Matfer Bourgeat Exoglass serving spoon is a composite utensil designed for both cooking and serving in professional kitchen environments. The red colour coding makes it straightforward to integrate into allergen management systems, helping kitchens maintain clear separation between ingredients or food groups during preparation and service.

Exoglass is a composite material developed specifically for commercial kitchen use. It is heat resistant, which makes this spoon practical at the stove as well as on the pass, and it does not impart flavour or absorb odours — a practical advantage when moving between different dishes during a busy service. The material is also non-reactive, so it is suitable for use with acidic foods without risk of deterioration.

From an operational standpoint, the spoon offers a few straightforward advantages:

• Colour-coded red handle supports allergen and cross-contamination control
• Heat-resistant composite construction handles both cooking and serving duties
• Lightweight at 43g, reducing hand fatigue during extended service
• Non-porous surface resists odour and flavour transfer between dishes
• Dishwasher safe for efficient turnaround between services

At 345mm in length, this is a standard-sized serving spoon suited to most front-line service and prep tasks. It is a straightforward utensil that performs reliably in day-to-day use, though kitchens with high-volume buffet or banqueting operations may find a larger spoodle or ladle better suited to their throughput requirements.

If you are building out a colour-coded utensil set or have questions about which sizes work best for your service style, the team is happy to help.

The Matfer Bourgeat spiral whisk is a specialist hand tool designed for working sauces, emulsions, and liaisons to a smooth, even finish. Unlike a standard balloon whisk, the coiled spiral wire construction concentrates contact with the base and sides of a pan, making it particularly effective for finishing and binding where a conventional whisk would leave pockets of unincorporated liquid or sediment.

In a busy kitchen environment, this kind of precision tool earns its place during service. The spiral wire moves through a sauce with less resistance than a full balloon head, giving the cook finer control when adjusting consistency or incorporating a butter mount at the last moment. The Exoglass handle — a composite material developed by Matfer Bourgeat — resists heat, stays comfortable in the hand over extended use, and will not splinter, corrode, or retain food odours the way wooden-handled tools can. The stainless steel wire construction holds up well to repeated washing and the rigours of a professional kitchen.

Practically speaking, this whisk is well suited to sauce work, anglaise-style custards, beurre blanc, and any preparation where a silky texture and thorough binding matter. It is less suited to high-volume aeration tasks — for whipping cream or egg whites to volume, a balloon whisk remains the appropriate choice.

If you are building out a sauce section or reviewing your utensil kit and want a straightforward steer on which tools will earn their keep, we are happy to help.

The Matfer Bourgeat 8 Segment Wedger is a manual portioning tool designed to cut tomatoes and citrus fruits into eight equal wedges in a single, controlled press. It is intended for use alongside the Matfer Bourgeat tomato and citrus fruit wedger base unit, providing the cutting blade assembly for that specific configuration.

In a working kitchen, consistent portioning matters — particularly for garnishes, salad lines, and service platters where presentation is expected to be uniform across covers. This wedger handles that task quickly and repeatedly without requiring knife skills or slowing down prep. The composite and stainless steel construction is practical for a food preparation environment: robust enough for sustained use and straightforward to clean down between tasks.

Operational advantages of this wedger include:

• Uniform 8-segment cuts reduce prep time and plate variation
• Single-action operation suits high-throughput garnish and salad prep
• Stainless steel blades are hygienic and easy to clean
• Compact footprint takes up minimal bench space during service prep
• Consistent output reduces reliance on individual knife technique

This is a replacement or additional blade segment unit, not a standalone wedger. It requires the compatible Matfer Bourgeat base unit to function. Before ordering, it is worth confirming compatibility with your existing equipment to avoid any mismatch.

Well suited to café kitchens, hotel breakfast operations, pub kitchens, and any prep environment where tomatoes or citrus are portioned in volume. For sites with very high throughput, it is worth considering whether a more heavy-duty mechanical portioning solution would better meet demand.

If you are unsure whether this segment fits your existing Matfer Bourgeat unit, or want to discuss the right portioning setup for your kitchen, we are happy to help you confirm before you order.

This is a stainless steel lid designed to fit standard 1/3 gastronorm pans. It provides a straightforward, close-fitting cover for third-size GN containers used across cold storage, service counters, bain-maries, and prep areas.

In a working kitchen, a well-fitting lid does more than keep food covered. It helps maintain holding temperatures, reduces contamination risk during storage, and keeps prep ingredients in good condition through a busy service. Stainless steel construction means the lid can move between refrigeration and hot holding environments without issue and stands up to the daily handling, stacking, and washing that comes with high-volume use.

• Fits standard 1/3 GN containers across most major brands
• Stainless steel construction withstands repeated high-temperature washing
• Suitable for cold storage, service, and prep holding applications
• Lightweight enough for quick single-handed removal during service
• Stackable profile keeps storage neat in busy kitchens

There are no installation requirements here, but it is worth confirming compatibility with your existing 1/3 GN pans before ordering — lid fit can vary slightly between manufacturers. This lid is designed to work with Matfer Bourgeat's own 1/3 gastronorm range and is broadly compatible with other standard third-size containers, though a physical check is always worthwhile if you are mixing brands.

A good fit for any kitchen that uses 1/3 GN pans as part of its storage or service setup — from small cafés and sandwich bars through to larger operations looking to standardise their gastronorm accessories. If you are equipping a full bain-marie or cold well and need lids in multiple sizes, it is worth getting in touch to make sure you have the right combination before ordering.

The Matfer Bourgeat piston funnel is a manual dispensing tool designed for controlled, portion-accurate filling of liquids, sauces, batters, and similar preparations. The body is made from co-polyester, a food-safe material that is both lightweight and resistant to the staining and odour absorption that affects some plastics under daily kitchen use. The stainless steel wire stand holds the funnel upright between uses, keeping the work surface tidy and reducing the risk of spillage.

In a working pastry section or sauce station, this type of funnel earns its place through consistency. The piston mechanism allows the operator to dispense in controlled amounts with one hand, which is useful when filling tart cases, portioning coulis, or loading squeezy bottles from a bulk batch. The 0.75Ltr capacity suits smaller-batch work rather than high-volume continuous production, making it a practical choice for à la carte kitchens, patisserie sections, and prep environments where precision matters more than speed.

Four interchangeable nozzles are supplied at diameters of 2mm, 4.5mm, 5mm, and 8mm, giving a reasonable range of flow rates for different consistencies — from thin sauces through to thicker batters or creams. Swapping nozzles is straightforward, and the co-polyester body is easy to dismantle and clean at the end of service.

This is a smallware that suits kitchens doing detailed plating or portioned pastry work. For sites needing a larger working volume or near-continuous filling across a long service, a higher-capacity model in the same range may be worth considering.

If you are unsure whether this size is right for your prep volumes or workflow, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Matfer Bourgeat Tradition Plus saucepan is a professional-grade stainless steel pan built for everyday commercial use. At 5.4 litres, it sits comfortably in the mid-range of the Tradition Plus line — large enough for batch sauces, soups, and stocks, while remaining practical to handle during a busy service.

Matfer Bourgeat have a long-standing reputation in professional kitchen equipment, and the Tradition Plus range reflects that. The pan is constructed from heavy-gauge stainless steel with a reinforced, non-drip pouring edge — a small detail that matters when sauces need to be transferred cleanly at speed. The handle is designed to stay cool during normal stovetop use, which reduces the risk of burns when staff are working quickly. The base is compatible with all cooking surfaces, including induction, making it a reliable choice whether you are fitting out a new kitchen or adding to an existing setup with mixed hob types.

In practical terms, this pan works well across a range of kitchen environments:

• Heavy-gauge construction holds up well under repeated daily use
• Non-drip edge supports cleaner plating and sauce transfer
• Induction-compatible base suits kitchens running mixed or induction-only ranges
• Stay-cool handle reduces burn risk during high-tempo service
• Straightforward to clean and maintain as part of a standard pot-wash routine

There are no unusual installation or infrastructure requirements — this is a standalone piece of cookware. It is worth noting that lids are sold separately, so if a lid is needed for your intended use, that will require a separate order. At 2.14kg, the pan has a solid feel without being unwieldy.

The 5.4-litre capacity suits small to medium service volumes — it is a practical workhorse pan for cafés, pub kitchens, hotel operations, and contract catering environments. For higher-volume operations producing larger batch quantities, a bigger capacity within the same range may be worth considering.

If you are unsure whether this size is the right fit for your service volumes or hob setup, the team is happy to help you work that out before you commit.

The Matfer Bourgeat Exoglass round fluted tartlet mould is a 90mm individual pastry mould designed for professional patisserie and dessert production. Made from Exoglass — a composite material developed specifically for professional baking — it combines the heat distribution properties useful in pastry work with a level of durability and flexibility that traditional tin or aluminium moulds don't always offer. The pack contains twelve moulds, making it a practical quantity for small-batch production or building up stock gradually.

Exoglass moulds are well regarded in professional kitchens because they hold their shape over time, don't corrode, and release cleanly without the need for excessive greasing. The fluted profile produces a defined, consistent finish on tartlet cases — important when presentation is part of the offer, whether for plated desserts, afternoon tea services, or retail patisserie.

From an operational standpoint, these moulds suit kitchens producing tartlets in regular but not industrial volumes. Key practical points worth considering:

• Exoglass is dishwasher safe, reducing turn-around time between batches
• The material is non-reactive, making it suitable for acidic fillings such as lemon curd or fruit-based preparations
• Flexible enough to aid release without warping under repeated thermal cycling
• Consistent mould-to-mould sizing supports uniform portion control across a batch
• Suitable for oven use within standard professional baking temperature ranges

These are well suited to hotel kitchens, restaurant pastry sections, and catering operations producing individual tartlets on a regular basis. For operations running very high daily volumes, it is worth considering heavier-gauge professional moulds or larger pack sizes to reduce the intensity of use on any individual piece.

If you are building out a pastry section or unsure which mould profile or size best fits your menu, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Matfer Bourgeat Excellence stock pot is a professional-grade stainless steel pot designed for batch cooking, stock production, blanching, and high-volume sauce work in commercial kitchens. At 36 litres, it sits in a practical mid-to-large range that suits most brigade cooking tasks without being unwieldy on a busy range.

In day-to-day service, this pot performs reliably across prolonged cooking periods. The stainless steel construction distributes heat evenly and holds up well under repeated daily use, making it a practical choice for kitchens that run continuous stock or sauce production throughout service. It is compatible with induction hobs as well as gas and conventional electric ranges, which gives it flexibility across different kitchen setups.

From an operational standpoint, this pot offers several straightforward advantages:

• Induction compatibility means it works across a wide range of hob types without the need for additional equipment
• Stainless steel construction is hygienic, non-reactive, and straightforward to clean thoroughly
• The 36-litre capacity handles meaningful batch volumes without tying up multiple smaller pots
• Robust build quality supports regular use without warping or degradation under commercial kitchen conditions

No specialist installation is required — this is countertop cookware. It is worth confirming your hob or range can accommodate the base diameter before ordering, particularly on induction suites where zone sizing varies.

This pot is well suited to hotel kitchens, restaurant brigades, and contract catering operations where stock, soups, and sauces form a regular part of daily production. For smaller operations, a lower-capacity option may be more practical; for very high-volume sites producing large batches continuously, a larger pot from the same range may be worth considering.

If you are putting together a cookware set or equipping a new kitchen and want to make sure you are specifying the right sizes for your menu, we are happy to help work through what makes sense for your operation.

The Matfer Bourgeat Excellence range is a line of professional stainless steel cookware designed to deliver the build quality the brand is known for at a more accessible price point. This 2.2 litre saucepan is a practical, everyday piece suited to sauce work, reductions, blanching small quantities, and general stove-top tasks across a busy service.

In a working kitchen, pans at this capacity earn their place on the stove throughout the day. The stainless steel construction handles repeated heating and cooling without warping, and the induction-compatible base means it works across both gas and induction hobs — a useful quality where kitchens are moving away from gas or running mixed hob setups. At just under 900g, it sits in a comfortable weight range for repeated daily handling without being flimsy.

The practical advantages of a well-made saucepan at this size include:

• Compatible with induction, gas, and electric hob surfaces
• Stainless steel construction resists staining and is straightforward to clean
• Consistent heat distribution supports accurate sauce and reduction work
• Robust enough for continuous service use without deforming
• Backed by a 10-year warranty, reflecting the manufacturer's confidence in the build

There are no unusual installation requirements — this is a standard stove-top pan. It is worth considering whether a 2.2 litre capacity suits your typical batch sizes; for higher-volume sauce or soup work, a larger capacity pan from the same range may be more appropriate.

This pan is well suited to most professional kitchen environments — from small independent restaurants and café kitchens through to larger operations where a reliable, mid-size saucepan is needed across multiple stations. If you are equipping a kitchen from scratch or building out a cookware set and want to talk through what sizes and quantities make sense for your operation, the team is happy to help.

The Matfer Bourgeat Exoglass Bouillon Strainer is a conical strainer built for filtering stocks, sauces, and bouillons in professional kitchens. It uses a triple-layer stainless steel mesh cone paired with an Exoglass handle — a glass-fibre reinforced composite material developed by Matfer Bourgeat specifically for commercial kitchen use. The result is a tool that balances fine filtration with the durability and hygiene standards that busy kitchens demand.

In day-to-day production work, the difference between a single-mesh strainer and a triple-layer construction becomes clear when stock clarity matters. The finer filtration produces cleaner, more consistent results in consommés, refined sauces, and finished stocks. The mesh holds its shape under firm pressure from a ladle or pestle and does not distort with repeated heavy use — a common failure point on lower-quality alternatives. The Exoglass handle remains cool during use, resists corrosion, and will not splinter or absorb odours over time.

• Triple-layer mesh produces finer, cleaner filtration than single-mesh alternatives
• Exoglass handle is heat-resistant, dishwasher-safe, and will not corrode or splinter
• Mesh retains its shape under firm pressure from a ladle or pestle
• Stainless steel construction resists staining and cleans thoroughly
• Lightweight enough for comfortable single-handed use during service

There are no installation requirements. The strainer suits hook or rail storage and is compatible with standard commercial dishwashers. The 255mm mesh diameter makes it a practical choice for medium-batch production — kitchens passing very large volumes of stock in a single session may find a larger-diameter strainer offers better throughput.

This is a reliable everyday tool for restaurant kitchens, hotel production areas, and catering operations where sauce and stock quality is a consistent priority. If you are building out a new kitchen brigade or reviewing your smallwares across the board, the team is happy to talk through what works best for your particular setup.
