Polypropylene GN gastro container HENDI 880258

A GN1/3 gastronorm container holds prepared ingredients, sauces or pre-portioned meals without altering their taste or smell. The container slides into standardised racks, bain-maries and refrigerated counters, keeping food organised and accessible during service.

Polypropylene forms the walls and base, creating a rigid vessel that does not warp under repeated heating and cooling. Because the material is non-porous, it does not trap food particles or odours, so each batch stays distinct and the container remains neutral for the next use.

The operator loads the container with raw or cooked items, covers it if needed, and places it directly into a compatible appliance. After service, the container is removed, emptied and sent for cleaning. Its transparency lets staff check contents without opening, reducing handling time.

Construction is a single moulded piece of transparent polypropylene, free from seams or joints that could harbour residue. The edges are smooth and rounded for safe stacking and handling.

No controls are fitted; the container is a passive storage and transport vessel.

The 7.8 litre capacity suits single batches of sauces, dressings, chopped vegetables or pre-portioned mains. The 176 mm width and 325 mm length match the GN1/3 gastronorm footprint, fitting standard catering racks and trolleys. The 200 mm height provides clearance for taller items while still stacking securely under a lid or another container. The lightweight material keeps manual handling manageable even when the container is full.

Cleaning follows from the material: polypropylene withstands the heat and detergents of commercial dishwashers, so the container can be washed alongside other kitchenware without risk of warping or clouding.

The catalogue places this item in the storage and transport section, alongside other gastronorm containers and lids.
