Stainless Steel Food Pan 1/2 GN × 10 cm

Perfect For

This food pan is ideal for professional kitchens, caterers or serious home cooks in New Zealand who need a robust container for buffet service, hot-food steam tables, bain-maries or refrigerated prep.
It suits scenarios where you need a standard Gastronorm size (½ size) that fits trolleys, chafing dishes, and standard catering equipment. Especially handy for hotels, cafés, catering events or busy households where food-holding and storage are part of the workflow.

Description

The Stainless Steel Food Pan 1/2 GN × 10 cm is a half-size gastronorm container with internal dimensions approximately 32.5 × 26.5 cm and a depth of 10 cm (100mm).
Constructed from high-quality stainless steel (often grade 18/10 or 304) it offers excellent durability, corrosion resistance and is suitable for heavy-duty use. 
Key features include smooth, rounded corners for easier cleaning, reinforced edges to prevent damage or warping, and stackable design to save storage space. 
Being dishwasher-safe and compatible with refrigeration, oven (in many cases) and heated surfaces, it provides versatility across different food-service tasks. 
In a New Zealand kitchen, this means you can use it for prepping dishes, holding cooked food, transporting items to event setups, or fitting into buffet equipment seamlessly.
