This Vogue half-size gastronorm container is a straightforward polycarbonate storage and prep pan sized to the 1/2 GN standard, making it compatible with the vast majority of gastronorm-rated refrigeration, bain marie units, and prep tables in commercial use. At 65mm deep it sits in the shallower end of the GN range, which suits portion-controlled prep work, cold counters, and ingredient storage where depth would mean unnecessary bulk.

Polycarbonate containers of this type are a practical everyday workhorse across most catering environments. The material stays cool to the touch even when contents are chilled, which makes handling quicker and more comfortable during a busy service. The temperature tolerance of the polycarbonate means these containers move safely from cold storage through prep without any concern about material stress — they are not intended for oven or direct heat use, and operators should be aware of that distinction when planning workflows.

A few practical points worth noting for day-to-day use:

  • Dishwasher safe and designed to drip dry quickly, reducing turnaround time between services
  • Lightweight construction makes repetitive handling less fatiguing during long shifts
  • Stackable profile helps keep cold store and prep areas organised under pressure
  • Compatible with standard 1/2 GN lids, including clip-on and seal-tight variants
  • Clear polycarbonate allows quick visual identification of contents without opening

These containers are well suited to delis, sandwich operations, salad bars, cold preparation kitchens, and any site that runs a gastronorm-based refrigeration system. For operations requiring deeper storage — sauces, bulk ingredients, or wet goods — a 100mm or 150mm depth in the same GN footprint may be a more practical fit.

If you are building out a gastronorm storage system and want to make sure the containers, lids, and units all work together, the team are happy to talk it through.

Frequently asked questions

Is this container suitable for use in a bain marie or hot hold unit?

No — polycarbonate containers are designed for cold storage and chilled prep use only. The material tolerates temperatures up to 100°C but this refers to hot water cleaning cycles, not sustained hot-hold or steam exposure. For bain marie or hot service applications, stainless steel gastronorm containers are the correct choice.

Will standard 1/2 GN lids fit this container?

Yes, provided the lid is rated for 1/2 GN. Most clip-on, flat, and notched lids in the Vogue range and other standard GN lid formats will fit correctly. If you are mixing container brands, it is worth checking the lid profile matches before committing to a full set.

How many of these containers would a typical cold prep kitchen need?

That depends on your mise en place volume and how many prep cycles you run between washes. A busy kitchen will typically want enough containers to cover a full service setup plus a second rotation to allow for washing mid-service. If you are unsure how to size a gastronorm storage system for your operation, we are happy to advise.
