Food Storage Container ARAVEN AR00918

An ingredient bin keeps dry and bulk foodstuffs organised, protected and visible in a professional kitchen. Instead of leaving sacks, boxes or bags on the floor or shelf, the bin holds the contents in a single container that seals against dust and moisture. A transparent window lets staff see the stock level and the type of ingredient without opening the lid, saving time during service. Wheels fitted to the base allow the bin to be moved from storage to prep area or worktop without lifting, reducing strain and speeding up workflow.

The bin is loaded by lifting the wide lid, which opens fully to accept large scoops or hands. Dry goods such as flour, rice, pasta, pulses or spices are poured in until the 50 L capacity is reached. The lid is then closed to seal the contents. When an ingredient is needed, the operator slides the bin to the required station, opens the lid and removes the quantity with a scoop or ladle. The transparent window shows how much remains, so stock can be monitored without emptying the bin.

Constructed from food-safe plastic, the bin is lightweight yet sturdy enough to hold up to 50 L of dry goods. The base is fitted with wheels for mobility, and the lid is hinged for easy access. A traceability label is provided to record the contents, date of filling and any other HACCP-required information, ensuring compliance with food safety regulations.

The 565 mm length, 340 mm width and 400 mm height give the bin a compact footprint that fits under most worktops or on shelving units. The 50 L volume allows bulk quantities to be stored without taking up excessive space, making it suitable for kitchens with limited storage. The wheels allow the bin to be moved even when fully loaded, so ingredients can be brought directly to the prep area without transferring contents to smaller containers.

Cleaning is straightforward: the lid and bin can be wiped down with a damp cloth and food-safe sanitiser. The smooth plastic surface resists staining and does not absorb odours, so the bin can be used for different ingredients without cross-contamination. The wheels should be checked periodically to ensure they roll freely and do not jam.

The bin is designed for dry, non-perishable goods that do not require refrigeration. It is not suitable for liquids, fresh produce or items that need temperature control. The transparent window and traceability label help maintain stock rotation and reduce waste by making it easy to see when ingredients need replenishing.
