  • Lid Separate: You'll need to remember to order the compatible lid separately.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Corner Slice Pizzeria in Bristol needed a better system for storing pizza toppings to reduce waste and  speed up service during busy Friday nights. Their old round containers didn't fit the prep station well, causing clutter and  delays.

"Switching to these GN containers transformed our prep line. Everything fits perfectly, the labels mean we know exactly what's what, and  we're seeing much less spoilage on our fresh veg. It’s made our service quicker and  more efficient."

Ben Carter – Head Chef

The switch has reduced their daily prep time by 20 minutes and  cut down on vegetable waste by an estimated 15%.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before first use, always wash the container and  lid thoroughly with warm, soapy water.
  • Use a non-permanent, food-safe marker for best results on the traceability label.
  • When stacking, ensure containers are properly nested to avoid stress or damage.
  • If using the compatible lid (GP577), check it creates a secure, airtight seal.

Keeping It Going

  • The container is fully dishwasher safe for easy and  hygienic cleaning.
  • Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals, which can scratch the plastic surface.
  • Wipe the label panel clean before rewriting to ensure the new information is clear.
  • Do not exceed the 90°C temperature limit in microwaves or commercial dishwashers.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Gastronorm Container

Not sure which food storage container is right for you? Here are a few things to consider to make the perfect choice.

Material Matters

ABS plastic, like this Araven container, offers great durability and  a wide temperature range, perfect for going from freezer to prep counter.

Get the Size Right

GN sizing (like this 1/4 size) is standard, ensuring it fits your existing racks, counters, and  bain-maries. Check your equipment's dimensions first.

To Lid or Not to Lid?

For storing liquids or keeping food fresh for longer, an airtight lid is a must. Check if lids are included or, like this one, sold separately.

Consider Food Safety

Look for BPA-free containers and  features like traceability labels to make complying with HACCP regulations straightforward and  stress-free.

Check Your Temps

Ensure the container’s temperature range suits your needs. Do you need to freeze, microwave, or just refrigerate? This one covers all bases from -40°C to +90°C.

Araven's Design Philosophy: Smarter Storage for a Safer Kitchen

Araven doesn't just make boxes; they create intelligent systems for better kitchen management, and  this GN container is a prime example. Its real value isn't just in holding ingredients, but in how it actively contributes to a more efficient, safer, and  less wasteful operation. The integrated traceability system isn't a gimmick—it's a direct answer to the daily challenges of HACCP compliance, reducing the risk of cross-contamination and  human error. By investing in tools designed with the professional in mind, you're not just buying a container; you're buying peace of mind, consistency, and  a more streamlined workflow that pays for itself in saved time and  reduced food spoilage over the long term.

The Smartest Label in Your Kitchen: Why Araven's Permanent Label Matters

Ever found a mystery container in the back of the fridge because the sticky label fell off? Araven's integrated permanent label solves that problem for good. It's a specially designed, textured panel right on the side of the gastronorm container where you can write with a non-permanent, food-safe marker. When you're done, it simply washes clean in the dishwasher, ready for the next batch.

Think of it like having a mini reusable whiteboard on every single container. You can clearly mark contents, prep dates, use-by dates, and  allergen information without ever touching a roll of masking tape or a peeling paper label again. It’s a simple, genius feature that eliminates guesswork, improves food safety, and  makes your kitchen run that little bit smoother.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Restaurant Kitchens: Perfect for prepping ingredients, storing sauces, and  organising walk-in fridges to professional standards.
  • Mobile Caterers: Its stackable, durable design makes it ideal for safely transporting prepped food to events.
  • Delis & Sandwich Shops: Keep your fillings, salads, and  toppings fresh, organised, and  easily accessible in your counter fridges.
