Boiler accessory MBM 700007

A two-sector catering basket divides bulk ingredients into separate compartments while keeping them within a single container. This design allows kitchen staff to handle different items—such as vegetables, proteins or garnishes—without mixing them during storage, transport or cooking. The basket sits inside larger vessels like bain-maries, sinks or prep tables, holding contents clear of water, oil or steam while allowing easy access when needed.

The operator loads each sector independently, placing items directly into the basket or lining the sectors with perforated inserts for finer control. Once filled, the basket lifts out as one unit, draining liquids through the perforations without spilling contents between sectors. This method speeds up batch preparation and reduces cross-contamination in busy kitchens.

Constructed from food-grade stainless steel, the basket resists corrosion and withstands frequent washing. The two-sector configuration is formed from a single sheet, eliminating seams that could trap debris. A rolled rim reinforces the top edge, preventing distortion when the basket is stacked or handled with heavy loads.

The 350 mm diameter fits standard catering wells and prep sinks, while the 360 mm height provides sufficient volume for bulk ingredients without overhanging work surfaces. The 50 litre capacity allows the basket to hold enough stock for a service period while remaining light enough to lift when full.

Cleaning follows the same process as other stainless-steel kitchenware: wash with hot water and detergent, rinse, and air-dry. The perforations allow water to flow freely, reducing drying time and preventing water spots. Regular inspection of the rolled rim ensures the basket remains safe to stack and handle.

This basket is catalogued under food preparation accessories for professional kitchens.
