GN 1/1 pan trolley Novameta BHS-VTGN28-75-53-173

A mobile rack organises up to 28 gastronorm trays 325 by 530 mm in a single vertical stack, keeping prepared ingredients, plated dishes or baked goods within arm's reach during service.

The trolley stands on four swivel castors, allowing the operator to roll the entire load across the kitchen floor without lifting. Each tray slides into a pair of horizontal runners spaced at standardised GN1/1 intervals, so the weight is distributed evenly and the trays remain level while the trolley is moved. The vertical arrangement minimises the floor footprint, leaving more space for worktops and appliances in a busy kitchen.

To use the trolley, the operator loads each tray from the front, starting at the bottom shelf and working upwards. Once filled, the trolley is wheeled to the required station—hot pass, plating area or cold storage—where trays can be removed in the same order or accessed individually. The open front design allows quick visual checks of contents without pulling trays out, reducing handling time during peak service.

The frame is constructed from stainless steel, chosen for its resistance to corrosion, ease of cleaning and durability under frequent use. The castors are fitted with brakes to secure the trolley in place when stationary, preventing unintended movement during loading or unloading.

The overall dimensions of 745 mm wide, 530 mm deep and 1732 mm high create a footprint that fits through standard kitchen doorways and alongside workstations without obstructing walkways. The height allows trays to be loaded and unloaded at a comfortable working level, reducing strain on the operator.

Cleaning involves wiping down the stainless-steel frame and runners with a damp cloth and mild detergent after each use. The castors should be checked periodically for debris that could impede movement, and the brakes tested to ensure they hold securely when engaged.

This model is designed specifically for gastronorm trays measuring 325 by 530 mm (GN1/1), ensuring compatibility with standard kitchen containers, lids and accessories used in professional catering.
