Product Description
This is a full-size perforated gastronorm tray in 1/1 format, made from stainless steel and supplied by Matfer Bourgeat. The perforated base allows liquid to drain away freely, making it a practical choice for a range of food preparation and holding tasks where drainage or airflow is needed.
In a working kitchen, perforated GN trays earn their keep across several stages of the day. They're commonly used for draining blanched vegetables, resting deep-fried goods to shed excess oil, lining bains marie where liquid contact needs to be avoided, and supporting blast chilling runs where airflow around the product speeds the chill. At 100mm depth, the tray holds a useful volume without being unwieldy to handle during busy service.
The practical advantages of this tray in day-to-day use include:
- Free drainage keeps product from sitting in liquid, protecting texture and food quality
- Stainless steel construction stands up to repeated washing and temperature cycling
- Standard 1/1 GN footprint fits most commercial oven racks, bain marie units, and gastronorm storage systems
- Consistent perforation pattern supports even airflow during blast chilling or steam cooking
- Straightforward to clean by hand or in a commercial dishwasher
Being a standard 1/1 GN size, this tray fits directly into most commercial ovens, blast chillers, bain marie units, and gastronorm trolleys without any adaptation. It's worth confirming the internal depth of your existing equipment before ordering, as shallow units may not accommodate the 100mm depth comfortably.
This tray is well suited to sites with medium to high throughput — hotels, contract caterers, pub kitchens, and schools are all typical users. For operations needing shallower trays for sauce or garnish work, or deeper trays for bulkier product, other depths in the same range are available.
If you're unsure which depth or perforation size suits your specific workflow, the team is happy to talk it through with you.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The 100mm depth makes it practical for draining blanched or boiled vegetables, resting fried goods, supporting product during blast chilling where airflow is important, and lining bain marie units where direct liquid contact needs to be avoided. It's deep enough to handle bulk quantities while remaining manageable to move during service.
- This tray follows standard 1/1 gastronorm dimensions, so it will fit the vast majority of commercial combi ovens, blast chillers, and bain marie units designed to accept full-size GN trays. The main consideration is the 100mm internal depth — if your equipment has shallow runners or a tight internal clearance, it's worth measuring before ordering.
- Stainless steel gastronorm trays of this type are suitable for commercial dishwashers as well as hand washing. The perforations can trap fine food debris, so a brief soak and a pass with a soft brush is recommended after heavy use to keep them clear and maintain drainage performance over time.
