  • Pros: The non-stick permanent label is fantastic for easy and  clear food rotation info.
  • Cons: Lids are sold separately, so remember to budget for them for airtight storage.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Gilded Spoon, a popular bistro in York, was struggling with inconsistent food labelling and  ingredient waste in their busy kitchen. They needed a standardised system to improve their prep efficiency and  tighten up their food safety procedures.

"Switching to the Araven containers has been fantastic. The permanent labels are a dream – no more peeling off sticky bits of tape. Our team can see dates and  allergen info at a glance, which has made our HACCP checks faster and  our stock rotation flawless."

Samuel Jones – Head Chef

The bistro successfully reduced its daily ingredient spoilage by over 20% and  streamlined its morning prep workflow, saving valuable time during peak hours.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before first use, wash the container and  lid thoroughly with warm, soapy water.
  • Use a specific non-toxic, dry-erase marker for the permanent traceability label for best results.
  • Ensure you have the correct GN 1/6 size lids if you require an airtight seal.
  • The container is ready for use in fridges, freezers, and  microwaves within its temperature range.

Keeping It Going

  • The container is fully dishwasher safe for easy and  hygienic cleaning.
  • To prolong its life, avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical scourers.
  • Before writing a new entry on the label, make sure the previous one is fully erased.
  • Regularly check for any cracks or chips and  replace if damaged to maintain food safety.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Food Storage

Not sure what fits your kitchen best? Here are a few pointers to help you choose the perfect food storage containers.

Material Matters

ABS plastic, like this container, is a great all-rounder. It's lightweight, transparent, cost-effective, and  durable enough for most commercial kitchens. For very high heat applications, you might consider stainless steel.

Understand GN Sizing

Gastronorm (GN) is a European standard for kitchenware sizes. A 'GN 1/6' container like this one will fit perfectly into standard prep counters, blast chillers, and  bain-maries, making your kitchen incredibly modular.

Lid Logic

A good lid is crucial for freshness and  preventing cross-contamination. Check if lids are airtight and  sold with the container or separately. Colour-coded lids can further enhance your food safety system.

Check Temperature Ranges

Always check the container's safe temperature range. If you plan to move items from the freezer to the microwave, you need a container that can handle both extremes without warping or cracking.

Look for Traceability

Features like integrated labels or colour-coding aren't just gimmicks; they are vital for HACCP compliance, allergen management, and  efficient First-In, First-Out (FIFO) stock rotation.

Traceability Made Simple: Why the Permanent Label Matters

What exactly is a 'permanent label'? Think of it as a small, built-in whiteboard on the side of your container. It's a special panel designed to be written on with a non-toxic, erasable marker. Unlike sticky paper labels that peel off in the wash, get soggy in the fridge, or leave a horrible residue, this system is clean, permanent, and  endlessly reusable. After you've used the ingredients, simply wash the container in the dishwasher, and  the writing comes off, ready for the next item. This makes managing 'use-by' dates, identifying contents, and  flagging allergens for your HACCP plan incredibly simple and  reliable. It’s a small feature that solves one of the most common, annoying problems in a professional kitchen.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Restaurants & Pubs: Perfect for organising mise en place in service fridges, keeping prepped veg, sauces, and  garnishes fresh.
  • Cafés & Sandwich Bars: Ideal for storing sandwich fillings, salad ingredients, and  pre-portioned items for quick assembly.
  • Delis & Farm Shops: Excellent for holding olives, cheeses, and  other counter items hygienically and  attractively for customers.
  • Mobile & Event Caterers: The stackable, standardised GN sizing makes transport and  setup on-site incredibly efficient and  organised.
