Product Overview
Ever found yourself in the middle of a frantic lunch service, wishing you had just one more clean pan ready to go? This is the simple, effective solution you've been looking for. It's a high-quality, 3.7-litre stainless steel food pan, precision-engineered to be a perfect gastronorm container replacement pan for your Caterlite CN607 bain marie. No more frantic washing or decanting hot food while customers are waiting in line.

Featuring a sturdy and durable stainless steel construction, it's built to handle the rigours of a commercial kitchen.

- Pro: A perfect, snug fit for the intended unit, with no rattling.
- Con: Lacks a lid, which would need to be sourced separately.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Harbour View Kiosk in Torquay needed a way to speed up their service for hot takeaway fillings during the busy summer season without investing in a whole new bain marie setup.
"Being able to have the next batch of chilli con carne hot and ready to swap in has completely streamlined our lunch rush. No more telling customers to wait while we frantically refill the pan. It's such a simple fix but it has made a huge difference to our flow."
Robert Finch – Owner
The kiosk increased its lunchtime service speed by over 30%, leading to shorter queues and happier customers.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Give the pan a thorough wash with warm, soapy water before its first use.
- Ensure the pan is completely dry before placing it into the bain marie unit.
- Check that it slots into place easily without needing to be forced; it should be a snug fit.
Keeping It Going
- Clean after every use to prevent food residue from baking on.
- For stubborn, burnt-on food, soak in hot water and use a non-abrasive cream cleaner.
- Never use steel wool or harsh scourers, as this can scratch the surface.
- When storing, stack carefully or place a paper towel between pans to prevent scratches.

Explore more from OlympiaWhy a Stainless Steel Food Pan is the Professional's Choice
You see 'stainless steel' on spec sheets all the time, but what does it really mean for your kitchen? It's not just about looking shiny. A quality stainless steel food pan replacement is non-porous, which is a technical way of saying it won't absorb flavours or odours. Think of it like this: the pan you used for a spicy curry today won't make tomorrow's vanilla custard taste odd. It creates a completely neutral barrier. Furthermore, it's incredibly tough and can handle rapid temperature changes – from a hot servery to a cold sink for washing – without warping or cracking. It’s the hygienic, durable, and reliable armour your food deserves.
Who Should Buy This?
- Mobile Caterers: Essential for quickly swapping out dishes like pulled pork or macaroni cheese at busy events and festivals.
- Café Owners: The perfect replacement food pan for CN607 units, keeping soups, beans, and fillings hot and ready.
- Hotel Breakfast Buffets: Ensures a constant, fresh supply of sausages, mushrooms, or tomatoes without interrupting service.
- Community Halls & Event Kitchens: A vital spare for serving hot food at local functions, parties, and gatherings.
