- Top-Tier Durability: The Polinorm material resists cracking and warping incredibly well under daily stress.
- Slightly Flexible: Can pop off if a gastronorm pan is significantly overfilled.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
"The Corner Catch", a busy seafood deli in Penzance, needed a foolproof system to separate raw fish from cooked products to comply with stringent food safety standards and improve kitchen flow during their hectic summer season.
"These blue lids were the final piece of our colour-coding puzzle. They're tough, fit perfectly on our existing pans, and the team knows instantly that 'blue is for fish'. It's simplified our prep and gives us total confidence during service and for inspections."
David Chen – Head Chef
The simple change resulted in a 90% reduction in prep errors related to cross-contamination and helped them pass their recent EHO inspection with flying colours.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Wash thoroughly before first use with warm, soapy water to remove any manufacturing residue.
- Ensure the rim of your 1/9 GN pan is clean and dry to achieve the best possible fit.
- Assign your blue lids to a specific food category (e.g., raw fish or seafood) as part of your kitchen's HACCP plan.
Keeping It Going
- Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals, which can scratch the surface and compromise hygiene.
- The lid is commercial dishwasher safe; place it on the top rack for best results and longevity.
- Regularly check for any deep scratches, cracks, or damage and replace if necessary to maintain food safety.
- Stack neatly when dry to prevent warping and to make them easy to grab during a busy service.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this lid completely airtight?
A: It provides a snug cover for storage and transport, perfect for preventing contamination, but it is not designed to be 100% airtight or leak-proof for liquids.
Q: Will this Pujadas HT899 gastronorm lid fit my stainless steel 1/9 GN pans?
A: Absolutely. This Polinorm lid is designed to universal 1/9 gastronorm standards and fits pans made from stainless steel, polycarbonate, or polypropylene.
Q: What exactly is 'Polinorm'?
A: Polinorm is Pujadas' signature high-quality, durable polycarbonate material. It's renowned in the industry for its excellent resistance to impact and its very wide temperature range.
Q: Is the blue colour just for appearance?
A: While it looks smart, the blue colour serves a vital food safety function. It allows kitchens to implement a colour-coded system to easily separate food types and prevent cross-contamination.
Q: Can I put this blue polycarbonate 1/9 GN lid in the microwave?
A: It is not recommended. These lids are designed and tested for storage and hot/cold holding in professional equipment like fridges and bain-maries, not for microwave use.

Seeing a temperature range of '-40°C to 110°C' might seem like just numbers, but it’s one of the most practical features of this Polinorm 1/9GN pan cover. Think of it like this: you can prep your ingredients, pop on the lid, and store the container in the walk-in freezer at -18°C. When it's time for service, that same pan can go directly into a bain-marie or hot holding unit without the lid cracking, warping, or becoming brittle. This single feature eliminates the need to transfer contents between different 'cold' and 'hot' containers, which saves you a surprising amount of time, reduces washing up, and minimises food waste. It’s one lid for the entire journey from prep to service.
Who Should Buy This?
- Caterers & Event Kitchens: For safely transporting prepped ingredients and keeping them perfectly fresh on-site.
- Cafés & Sandwich Bars: Essential for organising sandwich fillings and salad bar toppings in the prep fridge.
- Delis & Food Halls: Perfect for colour-coding different cheeses, meats, or olives in busy display counters.
- Dessert Parlours: Ideal for storing different sauces, sprinkles, and toppings while preventing cross-contamination.
