This is the ultimate kitchen workhorse, a high-performance container from Cambro, designed to handle pretty much anything you can throw at it.

Expert Review and  Insights

In any professional kitchen, efficiency is money. The Cambro H-Pan is a standout because it directly tackles a common workflow bottleneck: moving food between different containers for cold prep, storage, and  heating. Its sheer versatility and  durability mean it’s one of the few items that genuinely earns its keep on the line, day in, day out.

  • Built to Last: This pan handles temperature shocks that would crack lesser plastics instantly.
  • Lids are Extra: Remember to purchase lids separately as they are not included with the pan.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Corner Deli in Bristol was constantly struggling with a mishmash of containers that would crack in the freezer or stain after a single use with tomato-based fillings. They needed a more robust and  professional solution for their busy sandwich counter.

"We were throwing away so many plastic containers it was becoming a real hidden cost. These Cambro pans are tough as old boots. They go from the blast chiller to the microwave and  back, no problem. A fantastic bit of kit that has simplified our whole day."

David Chen – Head Chef

The switch resulted in a measurable outcome: they reduced their container replacement costs by over 50% in the first six months alone.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Always give the pan a good wash with warm, soapy water before its first use.
  • Check compatibility with your existing GN lids; this pan fits standard 1/6 size lids.
  • For ultimate organisation, use food labels or markers on the textured corners to note contents and  dates.

Keeping It Going

  • Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals to maintain its clarity and  smooth surface.
  • The pan is dishwasher safe; place it securely on the rack to prevent it from moving during the cycle.
  • Stack pans neatly when fully dry to save space and  prevent any potential damage.
  • They're incredibly tough, but it's always good practice to periodically check for any deep scratches or wear.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Gastronorm Pan

Not sure which gastronorm is right for you? Here’s a quick guide to help you decide.

Material Matters

Polycarbonate is great for cold storage and  visibility. Stainless steel is king for high-heat oven use. A high heat gastronorm container Cambro makes offers the best of both worlds for prep, storage and  reheating.

Know Your Sizes

GN sizing is universal. A 1/1 is a full-size pan, while this 1/6 pan is a sixth of that size. Planning your counter layout with a mix of sizes is key to maximising space.

Depth and  Capacity

This 150mm deep pan is perfect for sauces, marinated meats, or bulk ingredients. For smaller portions or deli items, consider a shallower 65mm or 100mm pan.

Don't Forget Lids

Lids are usually sold separately. You might need a standard lid for storage, a notched lid for leaving a utensil in, or a sealed lid for safe transport.

Perforated or Solid?

Solid pans (like this one) are essential for holding liquids and  most ingredients. Perforated pans are designed for steaming or draining food like vegetables or pasta.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can this pan go directly in a conventional oven?

A: It's designed for reheating in microwaves or holding in steam tables up to 190°C. For direct, high-heat oven roasting, a stainless steel pan is recommended.

Q: Is this pan really BPA free?

A: Yes, absolutely. It is manufactured to be completely BPA free, ensuring total food safety for your customers and  peace of mind for you.

Q: What does 'NSF Listed' actually mean?

A: It means the pan has been independently tested and  certified by NSF International to meet strict standards for public health, safety, and  quality in a food environment.

Q: Will it stain if I store something like a bolognese sauce in it?

A: No, it is highly stain-resistant. This makes it ideal for storing acidic or colourful ingredients like tomato sauces, curries, or beetroot without discolouration.

Q: Is it safe for use in a blast chiller or deep freezer?

A: Definitely. It is engineered to withstand temperatures as low as -40°C without becoming brittle or cracking, making it perfect for cook-chill processes.

Q: What are the exact external dimensions?

A: It's a standard Gastronorm 1/6 size, measuring 176mm wide by 162mm deep, with a height of 150mm.

Q: Are lids included with the pan?

A: Lids are sold separately. This allows you to choose the exact type of lid you need for your operation, whether it's for storage, transport, or service.

Q: Can I stack these pans on top of each other when they're full?

A: They are designed to nest and  stack securely when empty. For stacking when full, we strongly recommend using the corresponding Cambro lids for a stable and  secure fit.

What Customers Are Saying

"Absolutely essential bit of kit. We use these for everything from holding prepped veg to reheating sauces. They just don't stain, even with our house curry sauce!"

Sarah L. – Café Owner, Manchester

"Brilliant quality, very sturdy and  handles the heat from the service counter all day. Just a heads-up to buy the lids separately, you'll definitely want them."

Tom P. – Head Chef, Country Pub

"The amber colour is great for seeing what's inside at a glance during a busy service. A top-tier, restaurant grade 1/6 Cambro container that's worth every penny."

Ben Richards – Catering Manager, Leeds

From Freezer to Flame: Why High-Heat Polycarbonate Matters

Ever taken a plastic container out of the freezer only to have it crack when you handle it? Or had one warp in the microwave? That’s because standard plastics can't handle rapid temperature changes. Think of this high-heat polycarbonate like the difference between a normal drinking glass and  a tough Pyrex dish. It's specially engineered to withstand 'thermal shock'. This means you can take it from a -40°C blast chiller and  place it in a 190°C steam table without it breaking a sweat. For your kitchen, that translates to fewer steps, less washing up, and  a faster, more reliable workflow when the pressure is on.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Busy Restaurants: Perfect for prepping, storing, and  reheating ingredients, streamlining your entire cooking and  service process from start to finish.
  • Event Caterers: Safely transport hot or cold food and  serve directly from the pan, significantly reducing washing up on-site.
  • Hotel Buffets: Ideal for holding sauces, toppings, and  pre-cooked items in both heated bain-maries and  chilled service wells.
  • Delis & Sandwich Bars: Keeps salad, meats, and  other ingredients fresh and  organised in prep counters for quick, efficient assembly.
