Polypropylene GN gastro container HENDI 880456

A GN1/6 gastronorm container holds ingredients, prepped food or sauces in a standardised kitchen workflow. The container slides into refrigerators, bain-maries, hot cupboards and trolleys without adapters, so food moves from storage to service on the same tray. Polypropylene is lightweight, so the empty container is easy to lift and stack, while its transparency lets staff see contents without opening lids or removing labels.

The container does not absorb aromas or flavours, so strong ingredients like garlic, curry or smoked fish leave no trace after washing. This keeps each batch of food tasting as intended and extends the container's usable life in a busy kitchen.

To use, fill the container with up to 3.4 litres of food, slide it into a compatible appliance or stack it on a worktop. When service is over, place the container in a dishwasher; the material withstands repeated high-temperature cycles without warping or clouding.

Construction is a single moulded piece of transparent polypropylene, 176 mm wide, 162 mm deep and 200 mm tall. The footprint matches GN1/6 gastronorm racks, shelves and trolleys, so it occupies the same space as other standardised containers in storage and transport.

The container has no controls; its function is passive storage and transport.

A 3.4-litre volume holds enough for portioned sauces, diced vegetables or small batches of prepped ingredients without overloading a single container. The 200 mm height allows stacking under most kitchen workstations while still fitting inside standard refrigeration and hot-holding units.

Cleaning follows from the material: dishwasher-safe polypropylene tolerates the alkaline detergents and high temperatures used in professional dishwashers. No special treatment is needed beyond routine washing.

This is the 3.4-litre, 200 mm tall version of the HENDI GN1/6 polypropylene container. Other heights and volumes are available in the same footprint for different storage needs.

The container fits all GN1/6 gastronorm-compatible equipment from any manufacturer, including refrigerators, hot cupboards, bain-maries, trolleys and shelving units.
