  • Pros: The build quality is fantastic for the price point; it's a true workhorse.
  • Cons: Its sturdy construction makes it slightly heavier than thinner, budget-friendly pans.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Harbour View Café in Torquay needed a way to streamline their busy carvery service on Sundays. Their existing, shallower pans required constant refilling from the kitchen, causing delays and  disrupting the flow for both staff and  customers.

"These Modena pans have been a revelation. The 200mm depth means we can load them up with roast potatoes, veg, and  gravy, and  they last so much longer through the service. They're solid, easy to clean, and  fit our servery perfectly. It's made our Sundays far less chaotic."

Robert Davies – Head Chef

By switching to this 200mm deep gastronorm container, the café reduced their mid-service refills by over 60%, leading to a smoother customer experience and  less pressure on the kitchen team.

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.
  • Rinse well and  dry completely to prevent water spots.
  • Check that the pan fits comfortably within your existing racks, ovens, and  service counters.
  • For best results when cooking, lightly oil the pan to aid in non-stick performance and  cleaning.

Keeping It Going

  • After use, soak the pan in warm water to loosen any baked-on food before washing.
  • Avoid using steel wool or harsh abrasive scourers, as these can scratch the stainless steel surface.
  • For stubborn stains, a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner can be used.
  • Always ensure pans are fully dry before stacking to prevent them from sticking together.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Gastronorm Pan

Not sure which GN pan is the perfect match for your kitchen? Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Match the Size to the Job

Check your equipment first! Whether it's a bain-marie, combi oven, or prep fridge, make sure you buy the GN size (e.g., 1/1, 1/2, 2/3) that fits.

Consider the Depth

Deeper pans like this 200mm one are great for liquids, sauces, and  bulk items. Shallower pans (20-65mm) are better for grilling, roasting, and  smaller portions.

Gauge the Gauge

The thickness of the steel (measured in gauge) equals durability. A lower gauge number, like the 20 gauge (0.8mm) on this pan, means thicker, more robust steel.

Think About Lids

Will you need to cover your food for transport or storage? Check for compatible lids – they come in solid, notched (for utensils), and  sealing versions.

Perforated or Solid?

Solid pans are all-rounders. Perforated (with holes) pans are specifically for steaming food, allowing water vapour to circulate freely.

Why Gastronorm (GN) Sizing Unlocks Kitchen Efficiency

Ever wondered what 'GN 2/3' actually means? Think of it like a universal language for your kitchen. The Gastronorm system is a European standard for container sizes, meaning equipment from different manufacturers is designed to work together seamlessly. This Modena pan is a perfect GN 2/3 size.

Imagine your kitchen equipment is like LEGO. A GN 2/3 pan will fit perfectly into a GN 1/1 oven shelf alongside a GN 1/3 pan. It will slot into a refrigerated counter with a GN 2/3 cutout, or sit neatly in a compatible bain-marie. This standardisation eliminates guesswork, ensures you're using every inch of space efficiently, and  allows you to move food from prep fridge to oven to service counter using the same container, saving time, reducing washing up, and  streamlining your entire operation.
