Product Description
EAIS produce these 2/1 gastronorm trolleys in two configurations: a full height version with tiered trayslides to maximise vertical storage capacity, and a lower unit with a solid worktop that doubles as a prep or staging surface. Both are built from fully welded stainless steel throughout, which matters in environments where these units are in daily use and need to hold up to repeated loading, transit, and cleaning cycles.
In practice, these trolleys are most commonly used for moving prepared trays, pans, and containers between preparation areas, cooking equipment, and service points. The trayslides include a retaining edge to the front and rear, keeping gastronorm containers secure during transit — a detail that becomes important in kitchens where staff are moving quickly and spillage carries a real cost. The castors are fitted with bumpers as standard, which offers a degree of protection to door frames and kitchen furniture during everyday use.
- Fully welded construction avoids the weak points common in bolt-together alternatives under sustained heavy use
- Retaining edges to trayslides help secure containers during transit
- Solid worktop on the low level model provides a usable prep or pass surface
- Castor bumpers reduce impact damage to kitchen furniture and fittings
- Stainless steel construction supports straightforward cleaning to food hygiene standards
For kitchens with restricted ceiling height or tighter access routes, the low level model is often the more practical choice. Larger volume operations — particularly those running banqueting, cook-chill production, or high-throughput hospital catering — tend to favour the full height versions where maximising tray capacity per trolley run matters.
If you are weighing up which configuration suits your kitchen layout and workflow, our team is happy to talk through the options with you before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The full height version is generally the better fit for operations running significant batch volumes — such as cook-chill production, banqueting, or hospital catering — where maximising the number of trays per trolley run reduces handling time. The low level model is more practical where ceiling height or access routes are restricted, or where a combined transit and staging surface is more useful than raw capacity.
- Yes, 2/1 GN trolleys of this type are commonly used in blast chilling and combi oven workflows, moving loaded trays directly between cooking and chilling equipment. It is worth confirming that the trolley footprint is compatible with the specific chiller or oven door opening you are working with, as clearances vary between equipment brands.
- Fully welded stainless steel construction is generally more durable over time than bolt-together alternatives, where joints can loosen or corrode under repeated loading and cleaning. The castor bumpers help limit incidental damage during busy service periods, and the smooth stainless surfaces clean down easily without trapping food debris.
