Expert Review and  Insights

You can tell a lot about a kitchen by its gastronorm pans, and  this one from Modena ticks all the right boxes for a daily driver. It’s not fancy, but it doesn't need to be. It's solid, the gauge is right for preventing dings in a busy environment, and  it does its job without any fuss. It’s a foundational piece of equipment done properly.

  • Build Quality: The 0.8mm steel feels substantial and  resists warping in a hot oven.
  • Separation: They can create a vacuum and  stick together when stacked wet.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

"The Seaside Kitchen," a busy café in Newquay, was struggling with a chaotic collection of mismatched plastic tubs for their sandwich fillings and  salad bar. They needed a more professional and  efficient system that could withstand a hectic summer season.

"We kitted out our entire prep line with these Modena 1/6 pans. The difference was immediate. They look smart, they're a doddle to clean, and  everything fits perfectly into our refrigerated counter. Our prep and  service flow is so much smoother."

Samuel Jones – Head Chef

By standardising with this stainless steel gastronorm container 150mm, the team reduced service times during the peak lunch rush by over 15%.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before first use, give the pan a thorough wash with warm, soapy water to remove any manufacturing residues.
  • Dry it completely before stacking or storing to prevent water spots and  sticking.
  • This pan is designed to drop straight into any standard 1/6 GN-sized opening in prep tables, service counters, or bain-maries.

Keeping It Going

  • For stubborn, baked-on food, soak the pan in hot, soapy water. Avoid using harsh steel wool, which can scratch the surface.
  • To remove mineral deposits or restore shine, a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner works wonders.
  • While corrosion-resistant, it's best not to store highly acidic or salty foods in the pans for many days to preserve the pristine finish.
  • If pans stick when stacked, a quick tap on the counter edge will usually release the vacuum. Storing them fully dry helps prevent this.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Gastronorm Pan

Not sure which gastronorm pan is right for your setup? Here's a quick rundown to help you decide.

Size Matters

GN sizing is a universal industry standard. A 1/1 is a full-size pan; this 1/6 pan is a sixth of that footprint (176x162mm), making it brilliant for sauces, toppings, and  smaller portions.

Consider the Depth

This 150mm deep gastronorm tray holds a significant volume. For smaller amounts or items that need to be accessed quickly, consider shallower options like 65mm or 100mm.

Material Choice

Stainless steel is the professional standard due to its unmatched durability and  hygienic properties. It won't stain, harbour odours, or crack like plastic alternatives.

Hot or Cold Use?

Think about the pan's primary job. Stainless steel is the champion of versatility, performing perfectly in ovens, bain-maries, prep fridges, and  freezers.

Gauge and  Durability

A heavier gauge (lower number) like this pan's 20-gauge steel means it's thicker and  far more resistant to the dents, dings, and  warping that occur in a busy kitchen.

What Does '20 Gauge' Stainless Steel Actually Mean for Your Kitchen?

When you see '20 Gauge' or '0.8mm' thickness, it might seem like a small detail, but it's crucial for performance in a commercial kitchen. Think of 'gauge' as a measure of thickness – contrary to what you might expect, a lower gauge number means thicker, stronger steel. Many domestic or budget pans use a higher gauge (thinner) steel that is prone to denting and  warping under intense heat.

This Modena pan's 20-gauge construction hits the sweet spot. It’s thick enough to feel solid in your hands and  robust enough to resist buckling when you pull it out of a hot oven or knock it against a counter. However, it’s not so overly thick that it becomes heavy and  cumbersome to carry when full. It’s like the difference between a flimsy paper plate and  a proper ceramic one; this pan is built to be used, washed, and  reused thousands of times without losing its shape.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Cafés and  Bistros: Perfect for holding prepped ingredients, salad toppings, or individual portions in a refrigerated counter.
  • Mobile Caterers & Food Trucks: The durable, stackable design is ideal for transporting and  serving food on the go.
  • Delis and  Sandwich Bars: Keep your fillings, sauces, and  garnishes fresh, organised, and  ready for speedy service.
  • Hotel Buffets: A must-have for serving sauces, chutneys, or small hot items within a larger bain-marie setup.
