What is a gastro tray?

A stainless steel gastro pan is an indispensable component of any professional kitchen. It is a standardized version of a container used mainly in the catering industry. In commercial kitchens, the gastro tub is generally used to store and transport food, raw meat or dairy products.

The gastro tub is characterized by its rectangular shape, medium size and hygienic features. Gastro trays are generally GN (Gastro Norm) sized, which means they have standardized dimensions and are compatible with other utensils. The main advantages they offer professional kitchens are sturdiness and durability. The most commonly used material for these containers is stainless steel, which offers excellent resistance to corrosion, heat and scratches.

As well as being functional and practical, gastronorms also come in a wide variety of modern designs that can be adapted to any environment.

Why are Gastronorm Bins indispensable in the foodservice sector?

Gastronorm bins offer numerous advantages to chefs and restaurateurs. They are incredibly practical to use, as they can be adapted to most refrigerated cabinets, salad bowls and buffets fitted with a ventilated hood. Gastronorm bins are highly stable, ensuring greater safety when handling food.

Stainless steel gastronorm containers are also extremely hygienic to use. They are made of stainless steel, a robust material that is easy to clean and maintain. What's more, GN bins are easy to store one inside the other when not in use, saving space and keeping your kitchen area organized.

Above all, the unique format of the Gastro Norm (GN) container is a very useful standard for catering professionals. Indeed, it allows chefs to use interchangeable containers for different applications such as serving or preserving food. This means they can keep food fresh for longer, and cook faster thanks to their adaptability.

In short, gastronorm containers are essential in professional kitchens for their ease of use, reliability and adaptability. That's why it's important for everyone working in professional kitchens to opt for these bins, which can make your work so much more efficient!
