Expert Review and  Insights

You see these Modena pans in kitchens up and  down the country for one simple reason: they just work. They aren't trying to reinvent the wheel; they’re just exceptionally good at being a reliable, no-nonsense container. The 20-gauge steel gives it a reassuring heft that you don't find in cheaper, flimsier alternatives. It's a proper workhorse.

  • Solid Performer: This is a tough, reliable pan that handles heat and  cold without complaint.
  • No Frills: It lacks anti-jam stacking ridges, so care is needed when nesting them.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The team at 'The Northern Bite', a bustling sandwich shop in Leeds, were struggling with a chaotic mix of plastic tubs in their service counter. They decided to standardise their setup with Modena gastronorm pans to improve workflow and  presentation.

"It sounds simple, but switching to these pans has completely streamlined our lunchtime rush. Everything is uniform, easy to grab, and  looks so much more professional. We're no longer fumbling around for the right container."

Ben Carter – Owner

By organising their ingredients in these commercial 1/6 gastronorm pans, they reduced average order preparation time by over 20% during peak hours.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Always give the pan a thorough wash with warm, soapy water before its first use.
  • Double-check that it fits correctly in your bain-marie, counter, or oven rack slot.
  • When using in an oven, always use oven gloves to handle the pan as it will get extremely hot.

Keeping It Going

  • The pan is fully dishwasher safe, making cleanup quick and  easy.
  • For stubborn, baked-on food, soak the pan in warm water before scrubbing to avoid scratching.
  • Avoid using harsh steel wool or abrasive cleaners, as this can damage the stainless steel finish.
  • Stack carefully when dry to prevent pans from getting jammed together.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Gastronorm Pan

Not sure what fits best? Here’s a quick guide to help you pick the perfect pan for the job.

Consider the Depth

This 100mm deep gastronorm container is great for sauces and  prepped veg. For bulkier items like soups, curries or cooked pasta, look for deeper 150mm or 200mm pans.

Material Matters

Stainless steel is the ultimate all-rounder for cooking, chilling, and  serving. If you need something for microwave use, you'll need to look for polycarbonate GN pans instead.

Lids or No Lids?

If you need to stack pans for storage or transport, make sure to buy the correct corresponding lids. There are options for simple drop-on lids or sealed lids for better freshness.

Understand the Gauge

Gauge refers to the thickness of the steel. This is a 20-gauge pan, which is heavy-duty and  offers great resistance to warping and  denting, making it a wise investment.

Mix and  Match Sizes

Don't forget you can combine different GN sizes to fit a standard frame. For example, a full 1/1 frame can hold two 1/2 pans, or three 1/3 pans, or a mix of sizes.

It takes the guesswork out of buying and  ensures every inch of your valuable kitchen space is used efficiently. It’s a brilliantly simple system that brings order to the chaos of a busy kitchen.
