Pujadas Aluminium Casserole Without Lid Ø600

The Pujadas Ø600 Aluminium Casserole is a large-format, lidless cooking vessel from the Century Aluminium range, built for professional kitchens where volume and reliability matter. Made from pure aluminium sheet, it is a straightforward, workhorse piece of cookware designed to handle repeated daily use across a busy service.

Aluminium is a practical choice for high-volume cooking because it heats quickly and evenly, reducing hot spots and helping maintain consistent results across large batches. The extra-thick base is particularly important at this diameter — it resists deformation over time, keeping the pan in full contact with the heat source and avoiding the uneven cooking that warped bases cause. In a busy kitchen, that kind of reliability across a long service period is worth more than it might first appear.

From an operational standpoint, this casserole offers several practical advantages:

• Fast, even heat distribution reduces cooking times and supports consistent batch results
• Reinforced base resists warping under regular heavy use
• Heat-insulating tubular stainless steel handles reduce burn risk during handling
• Four rivets per handle provide a secure, long-lasting attachment under service conditions
• Pure aluminium construction is fully recyclable and straightforward to clean

As an open vessel without a lid, this casserole suits applications where reduction, braising without steam retention, or easy access during cooking is needed. It is not designed for induction hobs — operators with induction ranges should confirm compatibility with their heat source before ordering.

The Ø600 size is well suited to central production kitchens, cook-chill operations, contract catering, and large institutional sites cooking at scale. For smaller kitchens or lower service volumes, smaller diameters in the same range are available. For sites needing lid retention or alternative materials, other options within our cookware catalogue may be more appropriate.
