Product Overview

Fed up with containers that crack under pressure? This Commercial High Heat Gastronorm Pan from Cambro is the versatile solution your busy kitchen has been waiting for. Specifically designed as a high heat 1/6 gastronorm pan, it's crafted from a tough, translucent amber polycarbonate that lets you go from flash-freezing portions in the walk-in to reheating them for service, all in a single, durable container. No more swapping, no more cracking, and  a lot less washing up.

It’s an absolute essential for any professional food setup, from bustling restaurant kitchens and  event caterers to delis and  takeaway spots.

It's built to withstand the relentless pace of a commercial environment, day in and  day out.

It's not just a pan; it's a smarter way of working that saves you time, money, and  hassle when the dockets start piling up.

Expert Review and  Insights

In any professional kitchen, efficiency is king. The Cambro H-Pan isn't just another plastic box; it's a genuine process-improver. The ability to move a single pan from a blast chiller to a microwave or holding unit, without swapping containers, saves precious minutes during a hectic service. It's a small detail that has a big impact on workflow.

Oliver Bennett – Catering Equipment Expert View Profile →

  • Pro: Its incredible temperature range genuinely simplifies food prep and  holding processes.
  • Con: The amber colour can slightly obscure the true colour of certain ingredients.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The team at 'The Severn Grille', a bustling riverside eatery in Shrewsbury, were constantly cracking their standard polycarbonate pans by moving them between cold storage and  warming units, causing costly waste and  delays.

"We were going through so many plastic containers it was becoming a joke. These Cambro pans are tough as nails. We prep, freeze, and  heat in them daily, and  they just don't fail us. A brilliant bit of kit that's made our line far more efficient."

Robert Davies – Head Chef

Switching to the Cambro HR264 high heat pan reduced their container breakage by over 90% and  streamlined their prep-to-service workflow within the first month.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Always wash the pan with warm, soapy water before its first use.
  • Ensure your prep counters, fridges, and  holding units are compatible with standard 1/6 GN sizing.
  • For best results, pair with compatible Cambro lids to improve temperature control and  allow for secure stacking.

Keeping It Going

  • This pan is fully dishwasher safe; avoid using abrasive scourers to maintain its clarity and  smooth surface.
  • To separate stacked pans easily, allow them to cool slightly before pulling them apart.
  • While heat resistant, avoid direct contact with open flames, oven heating elements, or grills.
  • Regularly check for any deep scratches or chips to maintain food safety and  hygiene standards.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Gastronorm Pan

Not sure which GN pan is right for your kitchen? Here’s a quick rundown to help you decide.

Material Matters

Polycarbonate is great for visibility and  cold storage, while stainless steel is king for oven use. A heat resistant gastronorm pan polycarbonate like this offers the best of both worlds for prep, freezing, and  hot holding.

Know Your Sizes

GN sizing is universal. A 1/1 is a full-sized pan, while a 1/6 like this one is perfect for smaller ingredients, sauces, or garnishes. Always measure your equipment first!

Depth and  Capacity

A deeper pan (e.g., 100mm) holds more liquid or bulk ingredients, but a shallower 65mm depth is ideal for service lines where you need quick, easy access to the contents.

Check the Temperature Range

If you plan to go from a freezer to a hot holding unit, you absolutely need a high-heat pan. Standard polycarbonate can crack under that kind of rapid temperature change (thermal shock).

Lids and  Accessories

Don't forget the lids! Vented lids are great for releasing steam in hot holding, while airtight, sealed lids are essential for storage and  safe transport.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I use this pan in a conventional oven?

A: It is designed for reheating in microwaves and  holding in steam tables or bain-maries up to 190°C, but it is not suitable for use in conventional ovens with dry heat.

Q: Is this pan stackable?

A: Yes, the Cambro HR264 is designed to stack neatly with other 1/6 GN pans, saving valuable storage space in your kitchen.

Q: What does 'NSF Listed' actually mean for my kitchen?

A: It means the pan has been independently tested and  certified by NSF International to meet strict public health and  safety standards for commercial foodservice equipment.

Q: Will strong foods like curry or tomato sauce stain the pan?

A: This polycarbonate 1/6 gastronorm container is made from a highly stain-resistant material, making it an excellent choice for holding colourful and  acidic foods without discolouration.

Q: Is the material really BPA-Free?

A: Absolutely. This Cambro H-Pan is manufactured to be 100% BPA-Free, ensuring the highest level of food safety for your customers.

Q: What is the main difference between this and  a standard clear polycarbonate pan?

A: The key difference is the extended temperature range. This high-heat pan can handle up to 190°C, whereas standard polycarbonate pans typically max out around 99°C and  can crack under thermal shock.

Q: Can I use this pan for freezing?

A: Yes, it is perfectly safe for use in freezers and  blast chillers down to -40°C, making it ideal for food prep and  long-term storage.

Q: Does a lid come included with the pan?

A: Lids are typically sold separately. This allows you to choose the exact style you need, whether that's a sealed lid for storage or a notched lid for use with serving utensils.

Mark L – The Corner Bistro, Manchester

"Great pans, very durable. My only tiny gripe is they can be a bit tricky to separate when stacked warm, but you soon get the knack. Worth every penny for the versatility."

Susan P – School Canteen Manager, Leeds

From Blast Chiller to Bain-Marie: The H-Pan Advantage

Ever tried to move a cold, brittle plastic container into a hot bain-marie? The result is often a loud crack and  a messy clean-up. This pan's ability to withstand temperatures from -40°C to 190°C isn't just a number; it's a workflow revolution. Think of it like a marathon runner who can also sprint. You can take a pan of pre-made sauce from the deep freeze, pop it in the microwave to get it started, and then slide it directly into your hot holding unit for service—all without ever transferring the contents. This single-pan process saves time, reduces washing up, and  minimises food waste from spills.

  • Event Caterers: Easily transport, chill, and  reheat food in the same container, saving valuable space and  washing up.
