When it comes to the materials used to manufacture gastro bins, the industry has many different types. Whatever your requirements, there's sure to be a product that fully meets your needs. Remember to choose a gastronorm tray to suit your equipment: serving carts, transport ladders, ovens and other equipment, and according to how you intend to use it.

Stainless steel gastronorm trays

Bac gastronorme en inox

Essential in professional kitchens, stainless steel GN trays are used for a wide range of purposes.

Resistant to both cold and heat, they are ideal for cooking, reheating, bain-marie, hot or cold transport and rapid chilling. It can also be used for food preservation and storage. It comes in two versions: solid or perforated (ideal for draining large quantities or steaming). It can be fitted with lids (with or without handles) and drip trays. It is also available with vacuum lids, for low-temperature cooking or vacuum preservation of foodstuffs. More and more professionals are using vacuum trays, as they offer advantages in terms of hygiene, freshness and preservation.

At Gastroland, all our stainless steel bins are designed and manufactured in compliance with the UNI EN 631-1 standard, in AISI 304 (1.4301) stainless steel to ensure good corrosion resistance. AISI 304 is an austenitic steel that can be used in contact with foodstuffs in accordance with decree Nr. 258 of December 21, 2010. It is one of the best metals for cooking and transporting food. The thicknesses of our containers have been designed to ensure greater strength and dimensional stability. As for surface finishes, in addition to meeting European requirements, they are designed to ensure maximum resistance to corrosion.

Polypropylene Gastronorm containers

Designed and manufactured in compliance with European standards CE1935/2004 - EU10/2011, polypropylene is an excellent economical solution for food storage and preservation. It provides good shock resistance and good visibility of contents.

Double graduation (metric and American) makes it easy to dose or "quantify" foodstuffs.

Thicknesses have been designed to ensure greater strength and dimensional stability: from 2.3 to 2.9 mm depending on dimensions. The polypropylene gastro tray can be used with clip-on, transparent or colored lids for quick identification of contents. It's lightweight, stackable and can be used at temperatures ranging from -40°C to +80°C. What's more, they are microwaveable (for very short periods), easy to clean and dishwasher-safe.

Our Polypropylene Gastronorm containers are available in four depths, and can be fitted with drip trays (in certain sizes). We also offer a specific HACCP range to guarantee your customers food safety in compliance with health regulations.

Tritan Gastronorm containers

Designed and manufactured in compliance with European standards CE1935/2004 - UE10/2011 - UNI EN 631-1, Tritan (also known as Co-polyester) is Bisphenol A-free and can therefore be used in contact with food. This material ensures good shock resistance and excellent transparency (immediate visibility of the food contained). Equipped with double graduation (metric and American), it can be used to dose or "quantify" your food. Thicknesses have been designed to ensure greater strength and dimensional stability: from 1.4 mm to 3 mm depending on the dimensions of the tray or lid.

The Tritan tray is easy to stack and can be used at temperatures ranging from -40°C to +90°C. It can also be microwaved for very short periods. It can be complemented by drip trays and standard or hermetically sealed Tritan lids. Easy to clean, the Gastronorme Tritan range is dishwasher-safe and resistant to detergents.

Polycarbonate Gastronorm Trays

Designed and manufactured in compliance with European standards CE1935/2004 - UE10/2011 - UNI EN 631-1, Polycarbonate ensures good shock resistance and excellent transparency (immediate visibility of contents). Since January 1, 2015, Bisphenol A (BPA) has been banned in all food containers, as polycarbonate contains it and is therefore prohibited for food storage.

It remains available on the market, however, as it can be used for contents other than food. Its specific features are the same as those of polypropylene: double graduation (metric and American) for dosing or "quantification", easy maintenance (dishwasher-safe), easy stacking and microwaveable for short periods. Thicknesses have been designed to ensure greater strength and dimensional stability: from 2 to 3 mm depending on tub dimensions. Optimum operating temperatures range from -40°C to +110°C. The Polycarbonate Gastronorm tray can be complemented with standard or hermetically sealed Polycarbonate lids and drip trays. As Bisphenol A has been banned since 2015 for use with food, we will not be renewing our range of Polycarbonate trays. [Dernières pièces disponibles en Polycarbonate]

High-temperature drip tray in Nylon P12 Grilamid.

Designed and manufactured in compliance with European standards CE1935/2004 - UE10/2011 - UNI EN 631-1, Grilamid ensures good resistance to shocks and temperatures up to 150°C. It is Bisphenol A-free and food-safe. Pan thicknesses have been designed to ensure greater strength and dimensional stability: from 2.3 to 2.9 mm depending on dimensions. The Grilamid tray is translucent light yellow in color, allowing good visibility of the food contained.

It also features double graduation (metric and American) for easy dosing or "quantification" of contents, and can be used with standard Grilamid lids. Unlike Polycarbonate and the more common Co-Polyester, it can be used on food warmers and bain-marie. It is also microwaveable. Easy-care, dishwasher-safe with Ph-neutral detergents.
