The Araven 9" colander is a straightforward polypropylene draining tool designed for everyday use in commercial kitchens. At 235mm in diameter, it handles routine draining tasks — pasta, vegetables, salad leaves — without fuss. Polypropylene construction keeps it light in the hand and resistant to the knocks and stacking pressures of a working kitchen environment.

In practical service terms, polypropylene colanders like this one earn their place through durability and ease of handling. The material tolerates repeated dishwasher cycles without warping or degrading, which matters when a colander is going through the rack several times a day. It is also microwave and freezer safe, making it genuinely versatile across prep and holding tasks.

  • Survives repeated dishwasher cycles without distortion
  • Suitable for microwave and freezer use
  • Lightweight enough for fast, repeated handling during service
  • Resistant to staining from food contact

There are no installation requirements here — this is a hand-use item that needs only a suitable storage location within the prep area. Its light weight makes it easy to handle for all kitchen staff. At this size, it is well suited to smaller batch draining. Kitchens regularly draining larger volumes of pasta or vegetables at once may find a larger colander more practical alongside this one.

This colander suits any commercial kitchen where a reliable, hygienic, low-maintenance draining tool is needed — from café prep kitchens to school canteens. If you are equipping a full smallwares kit and would like a steer on quantities or sizing, feel free to get in touch with the team.

Frequently asked questions

Is this colander suitable for draining pasta during a busy service?

Yes, though at 235mm it is best suited to smaller batch draining — a single portion or small prep quantity at a time. Kitchens draining large volumes of pasta continuously during peak service may benefit from having several on hand or using a larger colander alongside this one.

How well does polypropylene hold up to commercial dishwashers?

Polypropylene is a practical choice for commercial dishwasher use — it resists warping and does not absorb odours or staining in the way some other plastics can. This colander is rated dishwasher safe, making it straightforward to maintain hygiene standards with minimal effort.

Can this colander be used for freezing or chilling prepared food?

Yes, the material is freezer safe, so it can be used to hold prepared food during chilling or blast-chilling stages. It is worth checking that it fits your specific storage containers or trays before committing to it for that purpose.
