Expert Review and  Insights

You can tell a lot about a kitchen by the state of its GNs, and  the Cambro polycarbonate range is a hallmark of a well-run operation. It’s a simple item, but its durability is what sets it apart. While cheaper alternatives crack under pressure, these are built to last, making them a wise, long-term investment for any serious food business.

Oliver Bennett – Catering Equipment View Profile →

  • Built like a Tank: This pan genuinely withstands the daily drops and  knocks of a commercial kitchen.
  • Not for Ovens: Remember its 99°C limit – it's for storage and  hot holding only.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The team at 'Flour & Bean Bakery' in York needed to upgrade their food storage after finding their cheaper plastic containers were cracking and  staining, posing a hygiene risk. They switched to the Cambro DM737 for all their refrigerated fillings and  toppings.

"We were constantly throwing out old, broken pans. It was a false economy. The Cambro pans are in a completely different league – they handle everything we throw at them and  clean up perfectly every single time."

David Chen – Head Baker

The switch has eliminated mid-year replacements, reducing their annual spend on storage containers by over 60% and  improving their kitchen's hygiene score.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Give it a quick wash with warm, soapy water before its first use.
  • Being a standard 1/3 GN size, it will slot into any compatible prep station or fridge rack.
  • Check that you have compatible 1/3 GN lids if you plan on stacking or transporting.

Keeping It Going

  • Pop it in the commercial dishwasher for a hygienic and  effortless clean.
  • Avoid using steel wool or abrasive powders to maintain its crystal clear finish.
  • Stack neatly when dry to keep your storage areas organised and  save space.
  • Remember not to use it in conventional ovens, combi ovens, or microwaves.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Gastronorm Pan

Not sure which gastronorm is right for your kitchen? Here’s a quick rundown to help you decide.

Material Matters

Polycarbonate (like this one) is a champion for cold storage and  visibility. For high-heat oven cooking, you’ll need stainless steel. For stylish buffet displays, consider melamine.

Get the Size Right

Gastronorm (GN) sizing is universal. A 1/3 GN pan like this means three will fit perfectly across a standard 1/1 GN rack or counter opening.

Depth is Key

This 65mm deep pan is superb for ingredients and  prepared portions. For bulk liquids like soups or sauces, look for deeper 100mm, 150mm, or 200mm options.

Consider Lids

Do you need to transport food or stack pans in the fridge? Make sure to grab compatible lids. There are options for simple drop-on, notched, or airtight sealing lids.

Check Temperature Tolerance

Always check the pan's safe temperature range. This one’s -40°C to 99°C range makes it incredibly versatile for almost everything outside of an oven.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this Cambro DM737 GN container safe for the freezer?

A: Absolutely. It is designed to withstand temperatures as low as -40°C, making it perfect for freezer storage.

Q: Can I use it in my hot holding bain-marie?

A: Yes, it's rated for use up to 99°C, so it's ideal for use in wet or dry hot holding units and  bain-maries.

Q: What does GN 1/3 actually mean?

A: It refers to 'Gastronorm', the European standard for kitchen container sizes. A 1/3 size means three of these pans fit neatly, side-by-side, into a full 1/1 GN space.

Q: Is the polycarbonate material clear or slightly opaque?

A: It's crystal clear, which is a major benefit as it allows for instant identification of the contents without needing to remove a lid.

Q: Will it stain if I store things like curry or tomato-based sauces in it?

A: The high-quality polycarbonate is non-porous and  highly resistant to food acids and  oils, which significantly minimises the risk of staining.

Q: Can I stack these pans when they are full?

A: Yes, they are designed to be stackable. For best results and  to keep food fresh, we recommend using compatible Cambro lids for stable stacking.

Q: How does this differ from a cheaper, no-name pan?

A: The main differences are durability and  safety. Cambro pans resist cracking, warping, and  breaking, offering a much longer service life and  preventing food contamination risks.

Q: Is it heavy?

A: Not at all. It weighs just 0.28kg, making it very lightweight and  easy for staff to handle, even when full.

Why Polycarbonate Is a Kitchen's Best Mate

Ever wondered what makes 'polycarbonate' so special? Think of it as the superhero of plastics. While a standard plastic container might crack if you drop it on a hard kitchen floor, polycarbonate is engineered to absorb the shock and  bounce back. It’s the same sort of material used for safety glasses or shatterproof windows.

In your kitchen, this means your 1/3 gastronorm polycarbonate pan won't suddenly break, contaminating food or causing a safety hazard during a busy service. It also won't warp in the dishwasher or turn cloudy after a few washes. This durability ensures you get a product that not only performs better but also lasts significantly longer, saving you money and  hassle in the long run.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Cafes & Delis: Ideal for holding prepped sandwich fillings, salad bar ingredients, and  fresh deli meats.
  • Mobile Caterers: Lightweight yet incredibly robust, making it perfect for safely transporting food to events and  markets.
  • Restaurants & Pubs: An essential 1/3 GN food storage pan for organising mise en place in prep fridges and  service lines.
  • Hotels & Buffet Services: Use them directly in chilled buffet lines or hot holding units for a clean, professional presentation.
