Confectionery pan trolley 600x400 ROCAM 03900TE/L16IN

A mobile storage rack built to organise and transport up to sixteen standard 60 x 40 cm catering baskets or trays without transferring their contents. The trolley rolls on four swivel castors, allowing it to turn within its own footprint and manoeuvre through tight kitchen aisles and service doors.

The principle is simple: vertical space is used to hold multiple baskets or trays in a compact footprint. Each tray or basket slides into an L-shaped guide that runs the full height of the trolley. The L-profile cradles the edges of the tray, preventing lateral movement while the trolley is pushed or turned. This keeps the load stable and eliminates the need for separate shelves or dividers, so the same trolley can accept different tray depths without adjustment.

To use the trolley, the operator loads each basket or tray from the front, sliding it into the guides until it rests against the back stop. Once all sixteen positions are filled, the trolley is pushed to the dishwasher, prep station or storage area. The four swivel castors allow the trolley to pivot on the spot, so it can be turned into position without lifting or tilting. When the optional brake kit is fitted, two of the castors lock, holding the trolley stationary during loading or unloading.

The frame is constructed from AISI 304 stainless steel, chosen for its resistance to corrosion and ease of cleaning in a professional kitchen. The L-shaped guides are welded to the vertical posts, creating a continuous track for the trays. Four non-marking bumpers are fitted to the base to protect walls and door frames from impact. The trolley arrives fully assembled in a single carton measuring 12 x 70 x 165 cm.

Controls are limited to the optional brake levers on two of the castors. Each lever locks the wheel in place, preventing the trolley from rolling when parked on a slope or during loading.

The stated capacity of sixteen 60 x 40 cm baskets or trays means the trolley can hold a full dishwasher rack or a complete set of prep trays in one trip, reducing the number of journeys between stations. The overall dimensions of 672 x 522 x 1603 mm give a narrow footprint that fits through standard kitchen doorways while the 1603 mm height uses vertical space efficiently. The 26 kg weight allows the trolley to be moved by one person without strain, yet it remains stable when fully loaded.

Cleaning is straightforward: the stainless steel surfaces are wiped down with a damp cloth and mild detergent. The L-shaped guides have no crevices, so food debris does not accumulate. The castors are removed for thorough cleaning if necessary, though the non-marking material resists dirt and grease.

An optional modification adds two castors with brake kits, allowing the trolley to be locked in place during loading or unloading. The trolley is classified as a storage and transport accessory for professional catering equipment.
