Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
"The Corner Larder," a popular deli in Bristol, was struggling to manage their wide range of fresh salads and deli items using a chaotic mix of mismatched tubs. They upgraded to the Hygiplas FZ095 sets to create a uniform, professional system for their display fridges and prep areas.
"The difference is night and day. Everything is uniform, stacks perfectly in the display fridge, and the colour clips mean new staff know exactly what's what. It just looks so much more professional and our customers have noticed."
David Chen – Owner
The new system helped them reduce food spoilage by over 15% and cut down staff prep time by making ingredients easier and faster to find.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Wash all containers, lids, and clips thoroughly in warm, soapy water before their first use.
- Decide on your colour-coding system based on your HACCP plan (e.g., red for raw meat, green for veg).
- Brief your team on the colour system to ensure everyone is on the same page.
- For best practice, always label containers with the contents and a 'use-by' date.
Keeping It Going
- These containers are fully commercial dishwasher safe for quick and hygienic cleaning.
- Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals, which can scratch the surface.
- Ensure lids and containers are completely dry before stacking them for storage to prevent mould.
- Regularly check for any signs of cracks or damage and replace if the container is no longer airtight.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these containers microwave safe?
A: No, they are designed for cold storage and are rated safe for temperatures up to 70°C. They should not be used in a microwave or oven.
Q: Are the lids included in the pack?
A: Yes, this is a complete set. You receive four 1/4 GN containers, four compatible airtight lids, and four sets of the 7-colour HACCP clips.
Q: What does 1/4 GN mean?
A: 'GN' stands for Gastronorm, a European standard for kitchen container sizes. 1/4 GN measures 265 x 162 mm, ensuring it fits in compatible equipment.
Q: How airtight are the lids?
A: The lids are designed to provide a snug, secure, and airtight seal to maximise the freshness of the contents and prevent spills.
Q: What exactly are the coloured clips for?
A: They are for your HACCP food safety plan. You assign a colour to a food type (e.g., red for raw meat) to prevent cross-contamination.
Q: Can they hold hot soup from the stove?
A: No, these are intended for cold or ambient food. The maximum temperature they can safely handle is 70°C, so they are not suitable for holding boiling liquids.
Q: Do they stain easily from things like curry or tomato sauce?
A: The polypropylene material is highly stain-resistant for most foods, but for best results, we recommend washing them soon after use with powerful colourants.
Q: Can I stack them when full?
A: Absolutely. They are designed to be sturdy and stackable, which is perfect for saving space in commercial fridges and walk-in freezers.

You've probably heard of HACCP, but what does it really mean for your day-to-day? Think of it like a traffic light system for your food. The colour-coded clips included with this commercial GN container with lid turn this important principle into a simple, visual action. By assigning a colour to a food group—say, red for raw meat, green for salads and vegetables, blue for raw fish—you create an instant, unmissable guide for your team. When someone grabs a container, they don't have to guess; the clip tells them exactly what's inside. This simple visual cue drastically reduces the risk of using the wrong chopping board or utensil, preventing dangerous cross-contamination and keeping your customers safe and your kitchen compliant.
