Delivery Information

Price Match

This is a standard 1/6 gastronorm container in food-safe, BPA-free polypropylene. The 150mm depth makes it one of the deeper options in the 1/6 format, giving a useful volume for ingredient storage, prep mise en place, or portioned items held at temperature during service.

Polypropylene containers like this one are a practical workhorse in most commercial kitchens. They handle the thermal cycling of fridge and freezer storage without cracking, and the transparent body means staff can identify contents at a glance — useful when multiple containers are stacked or slotted into a counter unit during a busy service. The modular gastronorm sizing means it will sit correctly in any standard 1/6 aperture, whether in a refrigerated prep counter, a bain-marie, or on a shelved rack.

In practical terms, this container is well suited to:

  • Cold ingredient storage in preparation and service areas
  • Portioning and labelling components ahead of service
  • Slotting into refrigerated counters and display units with 1/6 GN apertures
  • Freezer storage where airtight sealing is less critical than organisation

It is worth noting that polypropylene is not suitable for oven use, and this container is not designed for direct heat. A compatible lid is available separately if you need to seal containers for storage or transport — worth considering if you are ordering for a prep kitchen where cross-contamination control is a priority.

This size suits most kitchens as a general-purpose storage and service container. Sites running very high-volume prep may want to consider whether a larger GN format would reduce the frequency of refilling during peak periods.

If you are fitting out a prep station or cold line and want to make sure you have the right combination of GN sizes and depths for your workflow, feel free to get in touch — it is the sort of detail that is easier to work through with a quick conversation.

Frequently asked questions

Can this container be used in a bain-marie or hot hold unit?

Polypropylene has a lower heat tolerance than stainless steel, so this container is not recommended for direct hot hold or bain-marie use. It is best suited to cold storage, chilled display, and ambient prep applications. For hot holding, a stainless steel gastronorm container in the same 1/6 format would be the appropriate choice.

Is this container compatible with standard refrigerated prep counters?

Yes. The 1/6 gastronorm format is a standard size and will fit correctly in any counter or display unit designed to accept 1/6 GN inserts. The 150mm depth is worth checking against your unit's well depth before ordering, as some counters are designed for shallower containers.

Do I need to buy lids separately, and when does it make sense to do so?

Lids are sold separately and are worth adding if you are using these containers for labelled prep storage, overnight fridge storage, or anywhere that cross-contamination control is a requirement. For open service-line use where containers are being accessed frequently, many operators run them without lids during service and cover them only when storing.
