Tray trolley FORCAR CA1460PW

A mobile workstation that carries twenty Gastronorm trays through a professional kitchen, the FORCAR CA1460PW trolley keeps hot and cold food organised between preparation, holding and service. Instead of stacking trays on counters or balancing them on arms, the unit provides vertical slots that hold each tray upright and separate. This arrangement stops spills, speeds loading and unloading, and lets staff see every tray at a glance without lifting or shifting others. The trolley itself is a frame on four swivel castors. Vertical posts create the slots; each slot is sized to accept a standard Gastronorm tray, so the tray slides in from the front and rests on horizontal rails. Because the rails are fixed, the tray cannot tilt or slip once it is in place. The castors allow the trolley to move smoothly across floors, turning in tight spaces and rolling over thresholds without jolting the load. To use the trolley, staff slide each tray into its slot from the front. The slots are open at the top, so trays can be lifted out without having to pull them forward first. When the trolley is full, it is wheeled to the next station—oven, chiller, bain-marie or pass—where trays are removed one by one. The empty trolley then returns for the next batch. No shelves or doors are fitted, so every tray is visible and accessible at all times. The seamless stainless-steel body resists corrosion from steam and cleaning chemicals while sliding trays in and out during service. The frame is welded for strength, and the castors are fixed directly to the base. No panels or covers are supplied, leaving the trays exposed for quick identification and airflow. The footprint of 740 mm by 620 mm fits through standard kitchen doorways and alongside worktops, while the height of 1750 mm keeps the top tray within easy reach of most staff without stooping or stretching. The trolley has no controls or settings; it is a passive carrier. Its capacity of twenty trays matches the output of many bulk preparation stations, so a single trip can move a full batch of food. The weight of the empty unit is not stated, but the welded frame and stainless steel construction mean it is heavy enough to remain stable when fully loaded, yet light enough to be pushed by one person. Cleaning is straightforward: trays are removed, and the frame is wiped down with a damp cloth. Because there are no enclosed spaces or moving parts, no disassembly is needed. The open design also allows the trolley to dry quickly after washing, reducing the risk of corrosion or trapped moisture. The FORCAR CA1460PW is a single model with no variants. It is placed in the catalogue under Trolleys and Transport Equipment, alongside other mobile storage and serving solutions for professional kitchens.
