This is a straightforward polypropylene lid designed to fit full-size 1/1 gastronorm trays. It covers and protects stored food in prep, service, and storage environments, and is rated for use anywhere from frozen storage through to warm ambient conditions.

In a working kitchen, a reliable GN lid earns its place through consistent, unglamorous use — keeping prepped ingredients covered during service, protecting stored product in the walk-in, and allowing trays to be stacked without risk of cross-contamination between levels. The clear material means staff can identify contents without lifting the lid, which is a small but practical advantage during a busy service.

  • Clear polypropylene allows contents to be identified without removing the lid
  • Designed to fit securely over most standard full-size 1/1 GN trays
  • Suitable for use across ambient, refrigerated, and frozen storage environments
  • Stackable when in use, helping to make efficient use of limited storage space
  • Smooth polypropylene surface is easy to clean and dishwasher safe

Polypropylene is a sensible material choice for this application — it handles the temperature range encountered in most cold storage and ambient prep environments, resists staining reasonably well, and cleans without much effort. It is not suited to use in hot holding or on cooking equipment, and will not tolerate direct heat.

This lid is well suited to most commercial kitchens using standard GN tray systems — from small independent restaurants through to contract catering operations. If your kitchen uses non-standard or deeper GN trays, it is worth checking compatibility before ordering a larger quantity.

If you are unsure whether this lid is compatible with your existing tray stock, the team is happy to help.

Frequently asked questions

Will this lid fit all brands of 1/1 gastronorm tray?

It is designed to fit most standard full-size 1/1 GN trays, which follow a common footprint across the majority of manufacturers. However, trays with reinforced rolled rims or non-standard profiles can occasionally affect the fit, so if you are buying in quantity it is worth confirming compatibility with your existing tray stock first.

Can this lid be used in a freezer or blast chiller?

Yes — the polypropylene material is rated down to -40°C, making it suitable for frozen storage and blast chilling environments. It is not suitable for use on or near direct heat sources or in hot holding applications.

Is this lid dishwasher safe for high-volume kitchen use?

Polypropylene lids of this type are generally dishwasher safe and will hold up well to regular commercial warewashing cycles within their rated temperature range. Prolonged exposure to very high-temperature wash cycles over time can cause gradual warping, so checking your washer's cycle temperature against the 100°C upper limit is sensible practice.
