  • Built to Last: The 20-gauge steel construction feels noticeably sturdier than cheaper alternatives.
  • Lids Separate: Remember to order compatible lids if you need them for storage.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Salty Squid Bistro in Padstow, Cornwall, needed to standardise their kitchen storage to improve workflow between their prep stations and  busy service line. They were using a mix of different containers that didn't fit their equipment properly.

"We switched all our mismatched containers to these Modena GN pans. The difference is night and  day. Everything fits, everything stacks, and  service is so much smoother. They're tough, too – they handle the heat and  the frantic pace without a problem."

David Chen – Head Chef

The change resulted in a tangible improvement, reducing their prep-to-service time by an estimated 15% during peak hours.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Getting Started

  • Always give your new pan a thorough wash with warm, soapy water before its first use.
  • Check that its 1/3 GN size fits correctly in your bain-marie, oven racks, or prep counter wells.
  • For easy release when cooking, you can lightly season the pan with oil if required by your recipe.

Keeping It in Top Shape

  • To avoid stubborn stains, wash the pan as soon as possible after use.
  • For tough, baked-on food, soak in warm, soapy water rather than using harsh steel wool.
  • Pans are stackable, but ensure they are completely dry before stacking to prevent water spots.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Gastronorm Pans

Not sure which GN Pan is right for your setup? Here’s a quick rundown to help you decide.

Check Your Sizing

GN pans come in standard sizes (1/1, 1/2, 1/3). Measure your equipment like bain-maries and  ovens to ensure a perfect fit.

Pick the Right Depth

Deeper pans (like this 100mm one) are great for liquids and  sauces, while shallower pans are better for grilling or roasting.

Material Matters

Stainless steel is the ultimate all-rounder for durability and  easy cleaning. Polycarbonate is great for cold storage and  visibility.

Do You Need Lids?

If you're storing or transporting food, remember to buy matching lids. They come in sealing, notched, and  standard versions.

Consider Perforated Pans

For steaming vegetables or draining fats, a perforated (holed) GN pan is an invaluable tool to have alongside solid ones.

Why Stainless Steel Gauge Matters in Your Kitchen

You’ll often see numbers like '20 Gauge' or '0.8mm' on stainless steel kit, but what does it actually mean for you? Think of it like the thickness of the steel—a lower gauge number means thicker, stronger metal. This Modena pan uses 20-gauge steel, which hits the sweet spot for a commercial kitchen. It’s thick enough to resist warping in a hot oven and  to take the inevitable knocks and  drops of a busy service, but not so heavy that it’s a pain to carry around. It's the difference between a pan that lasts for years and  one that gets dented and  misshapen after a few months.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Restaurants & Pubs: Ideal for holding prepped veg, sauces, or serving sides directly from the bain-marie.
  • Cafés & Sandwich Shops: Perfect for keeping salad bar ingredients fresh, organised, and  ready for speedy service.
  • Mobile Caterers & Event Planners: A durable, stackable solution for transporting and  serving food safely at any location.
  • Delis & Farm Shops: Excellent for displaying olives, salads, and  other fresh produce in chilled display counters.
