Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The York Deli, a popular sandwich shop in the heart of York, was struggling with a disorganised and  slow service counter during their frantic lunch rush. They replaced their mismatched collection of plastic tubs with a full set of Modena 1/6 GN pans to standardise their setup.

"Switching to these pans has completely streamlined our prep line. Everything fits perfectly in the counter, it looks more professional, and  we can just grab what we need instantly. Our customers are getting their food faster, and  the staff are less stressed."

Samuel Jones – Owner, The York Deli

The change helped The York Deli reduce average order time by 90 seconds, leading to a measurable increase in lunch-hour sales.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon arrival, remove all packaging and  recycle where possible.
  • Give the pan a thorough wash with warm, soapy water before its first use.
  • Rinse and  dry completely to prevent water spots.
  • It's now ready to be integrated into your existing GN-compatible setup.

Keeping It Going

  • Clean after every use to maintain food hygiene standards.
  • It is fully dishwasher safe, making cleanup quick and  easy.
  • For stubborn food residue, soak in warm water rather than using abrasive steel wool.
  • To maintain its shine, occasionally clean with a specialised stainless steel polish.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Gastronorm Pan

Not sure which GN pan is the perfect fit? Here are a few quick tips to help you decide.

Consider the Depth

Pans come in various depths. This 65mm one is great for general use, but shallower pans are better for quick-chilling, and  deeper ones are ideal for liquids like soups.

Check Your Sizes

GN sizing is a fraction system. A 1/1 pan is the largest. Two 1/2 pans fit in a 1/1 slot, and  two of these 1/6 pans fit into a 1/3 slot. Plan your counter layout first!

Material Matters

Stainless steel is the king of versatility for its ability to handle hot and  cold. Polycarbonate is great for cold storage and  visibility, but can't go in the oven.

Lids and  Accessories

Do you need lids? There are standard lids, lids with notches for utensils, and  sealed lids for transport. Think about how you'll be using the pan.

Perforated or Solid?

Solid pans like this one are for general holding. Perforated (with holes) pans are designed for steaming vegetables or draining fats away from food.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does 1/6 GN actually mean?

A: It's a standard European size for kitchen containers. A 1/6 pan measures 176 x 162mm, meaning six of them would fit neatly inside a full-size (1/1) GN frame or counter cutout.

Q: Can I put this pan directly from the freezer into a hot oven?

A: Yes, stainless steel is excellent at handling extreme temperature changes, making it perfect for moving between freezer, oven, and  service areas.

Q: Is this pan dishwasher safe?

A: Absolutely. It's designed for commercial dishwashers for fast and  hygienic cleaning.

Q: Will this pan stain or hold odours from strong foods like garlic or curry?

A: No, high-quality stainless steel is non-porous, so it won't absorb odours or flavours, even from potent ingredients. Just wash it thoroughly after use.

Q: What's the best way to store these pans?

A: They are designed to stack neatly inside one another to save valuable shelf space in your kitchen.

Q: Is this a 1/6 GN steam table pan?

A: Yes, this pan is perfect for use in both hot and  cold food wells, such as steam tables and  bain-maries.

Q: How durable is the pan? Will it dent easily?

A: It's made from heavy-duty 20-gauge stainless steel, which is specifically designed to resist dents, dings, and  warping in a busy commercial environment.

Q: Can I use metal utensils in this pan?

A: Yes, you can use metal utensils. While it may show minor surface scratches over time with heavy use, it will not damage the integrity of the pan.

What Does '20 Gauge' Steel Really Mean for Your Kitchen?

You'll often see 'gauge' mentioned with stainless steel, and  it's simply a measure of thickness. The lower the number, the thicker and  stronger the steel. This Modena stainless steel gastronorm pan is made from 20-gauge steel, which hits the sweet spot for commercial kitchens. Think of it like this: a flimsy, disposable foil tray is like paper, while this pan is like a sturdy hardback book. It’s thick enough to resist dents from being dropped or knocked, and  it won't warp or bend when you take it from a cold fridge to a hot oven. This durability means you're not just buying a pan; you're investing in a piece of equipment that will last for years of service.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Coffee Shops & Cafes: Perfect for holding chocolate sprinkles, syrups, and  other toppings next to your coffee machine.
  • Delis & Sandwich Bars: Keep your sliced meats, cheeses, and  salad ingredients neatly organised and  chilled in the counter.
  • Mobile Caterers: An essential for transporting and  serving pre-prepared ingredients safely and  efficiently at any event.
  • Hotel Buffets & Restaurants: Ideal for serving individual portions, sauces, condiments, or small side dishes on a buffet line.
