GN tray in PMMA Dupont A00007286

A black acrylic tray in the GN 1/6 size holds cold or chilled food on counters, buffets and deli displays. The material, often called Plexiglass, is a clear plastic that looks like glass but weighs far less and resists knocks and drops without shattering. Its smooth surface does not absorb moisture or bacteria, so it stays hygienic and wipes clean quickly after service.

The tray sits on a counter or inside a refrigerated well. Food is arranged directly inside it, and the black colour makes the contents stand out. Because it is a standard GN 1/6 container, it fits racks, trolleys and serving units built for the gastronorm system, so it can be moved from storage to display without repacking.

To use it, the operator fills the tray with salads, desserts, cold meats, seafood or bakery items, then places it on the counter or inside a refrigerated unit. The acrylic remains stable from -20 °C to +80 °C, so it can go straight from a freezer to a chilled display without cracking. When the service is over, the tray is lifted out, washed and dried, then stacked with others of the same size to save space.

The tray is made of acrylic, a lightweight plastic that is fully recyclable and free from BPA and PFAS. It measures 176 mm long, 162 mm wide and 50 mm high, so it fits counters with an 80 cm depth. Five trays come in each box, making it easy to order and store multiples.

Controls are not needed; the tray is passive and simply holds the food. Its temperature range allows it to be used in freezers, chilled displays and ambient counters, covering most cold-food applications in supermarkets, butchers, bakeries, fish retailers and delicatessens.

The footprint of 176 by 162 mm means the tray takes up little counter space, while the 50 mm height gives enough room for a single layer of food without crowding. The weight is low, so staff can lift and carry several at once. Because it is stackable, empty trays can be stored in a small cupboard or on a shelf.

Cleaning is straightforward: the non-porous acrylic surface is wiped with a damp cloth and mild detergent, then dried to prevent water spots. No special tools or chemicals are required, and the material does not stain or retain odours.

The tray is sold in boxes of five, with no other variants listed. It is a standard GN 1/6 container, so it fits any equipment designed for that size, including refrigerated counters, buffet units and serving trolleys.

In the catalogue it is placed under food display accessories, alongside other acrylic and polycarbonate containers for professional kitchens and retail counters.
