This is a full-size GN 1/1 gastronorm tray in black ABS plastic, 200mm deep. It fits standard gastronorm refrigeration, storage racks, and bain-marie frames, and is intended for cold food storage, food prep organisation, and cold buffet display rather than cooking or oven use.

In a working kitchen, ABS plastic gastronorm trays like this earn their place through sheer practicality. The black finish makes them a reasonable choice for front-of-house cold display — salads, desserts, antipasti — where stainless steel can look utilitarian. They stack cleanly, and at this depth they hold a useful volume of product without being unwieldy to carry or store.

The practical advantages of this tray in daily service include:

  • Lightweight construction reduces fatigue during busy service periods
  • Stackable design helps manage storage space in fridges and prep areas
  • Dishwasher and utensil-washer safe for straightforward end-of-service cleaning
  • Compatible with standard blast chillers and freezer storage
  • Reinforced lips add rigidity and reduce flex when fully loaded

There are a few practical points worth bearing in mind. ABS plastic is not suitable for oven or cooking use, and the tray should not be exposed to prolonged dry heat. It is rated for food storage up to 70°C, which makes it usable in some hot-holding contexts, but it is not a replacement for stainless steel where heat resistance is a priority. For operations that put gastronorm containers through heavy daily cycling — constant loading, stacking under weight, and high-temperature dishwashing — stainless steel may offer a longer service life overall.

This tray is well suited to catering operations, buffet services, deli counters, and prep kitchens where lightweight, stackable storage is more useful than the durability of metal. It works well as part of a larger set of gastronorm containers across different depths and sizes. For higher-volume operations needing more robust or thermally demanding containers, alternative materials are worth considering.

If you are building out a gastronorm storage or display system and want guidance on which sizes and materials make sense for your operation, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

Frequently asked questions

Can this tray be used in an oven or for cooking?

No — ABS plastic gastronorm trays are not suitable for oven or cooking use. This tray is designed for cold storage, food prep organisation, and cold buffet display. For cooking or hot-holding applications, a stainless steel gastronorm container would be the appropriate choice.

Will this fit standard gastronorm refrigeration and bain-marie frames?

Yes, the GN 1/1 footprint is the universal full-size gastronorm format and will fit standard gastronorm-compatible refrigeration, storage racks, and display equipment. The 200mm depth is worth checking against your specific unit, as some countertop or shallow-well equipment is designed for shallower containers.

How does ABS plastic compare to stainless steel for heavy daily use?

ABS plastic trays are lighter and better suited to cold storage and display, but stainless steel is generally more durable under intensive cycling — frequent loading, stacking under weight, and repeated high-temperature dishwashing. For operations putting gastronorm containers through very heavy daily use, stainless steel tends to offer a longer service life, while ABS is well suited to lighter-duty prep and service roles.
