Delivery Information

Price Match

The APS Friendly tray is a half gastronorm-sized serving tray made from 100% recycled post-consumer PET — commonly referred to as RePET. It is designed to sit neatly within standard GN 1/2 configurations, making it a practical choice for buffet counters, cold displays, and structured table settings where a consistent, uniform presentation is expected.

In a working catering environment, these trays are typically used for portion display, self-service counters, and mise en place on pass counters or banqueting tables. The recycled plastic construction handles the kind of repeated daily use that comes with busy service periods, and the material is resistant to the knocks and stacking pressures common in high-throughput operations.

  • Made from 100% recycled post-consumer PET, supporting sustainability commitments
  • Dishwasher safe, keeping turnaround time short during service
  • GN 1/2 format fits standard buffet systems and display risers
  • Matte black finish presents food cleanly without visual distraction
  • Lightweight enough for front-of-house handling without fatigue

It is worth noting that dishwasher compatibility is rated to 55°C, so operators running high-temperature racks above that threshold should check their machine settings before committing to volume purchases. The tray is not intended for oven use or hot-hold applications.

This tray suits cafés, hotels, contract caterers, and event operators looking for a practical, presentable, and more sustainable alternative to standard plastic trays. It works particularly well where GN compatibility with existing buffet infrastructure is a priority. For operations requiring deeper trays or larger GN formats, alternatives within the range are worth considering.

If you are unsure whether this tray works with your existing buffet setup or you are specifying in volume, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

Frequently asked questions

Will this tray fit directly into a standard GN 1/2 buffet frame or container?

Yes — the tray is sized to the GN 1/2 footprint, so it should sit consistently within standard buffet frames, risers, and display systems that accommodate that format. If you are running a non-standard or branded buffet system, it is worth confirming the internal recess dimensions before ordering in volume.

Can these trays go through a commercial rack dishwasher?

They are rated dishwasher safe up to 55°C. Most under-counter and pass-through machines operating at standard wash temperatures will be fine, but operators running high-temperature programmes above that threshold should check their machine settings first, as sustained exposure to higher temperatures may affect the material over time.

Are these suitable for hot-hold or heated buffet applications?

No — these trays are not designed for oven use, hot-hold counters, or heated buffet displays. They are best suited to ambient or chilled presentation, self-service counters, and cold buffet setups. If you need trays for heated applications, a different material and product type would be more appropriate.
