  • Best Feature: The even perforations deliver fantastic air circulation for crispier results.
  • Consideration: Not suitable for holding sauces or liquids, which is its design.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Grand Hotel in Brighton needed to upgrade its buffet service equipment to improve food presentation and  reduce waste. Their old solid pans often left steamed vegetables sitting in pools of water, making them unappealing to guests.

"We switched to these Vogue perforated gastronorm pans for our breakfast and  lunch buffets. The difference was immediate. The veg stays vibrant and  crisp, and  our roast meats aren't swimming in fat. They look professional and  are tough enough for our non-stop service."

Robert Davies – Head Chef

The hotel reported a noticeable improvement in food quality and  a reduction in discarded vegetables, leading to better guest satisfaction and  lower food costs.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Wash thoroughly with warm, soapy water before the first use to remove any manufacturing residues.
  • Ensure the pan's 1/1 GN dimensions are compatible with your oven racking, bain-marie, or hot holding unit.
  • Always place a solid pan underneath when using in an oven to catch drips and  prevent messes.

Keeping It Going

  • Clean after every use to prevent food build-up. It's fully dishwasher safe for convenience.
  • For stubborn, baked-on food, soak in warm water rather than using abrasive steel wool, which can scratch the surface.
  • Stack carefully with other pans to avoid dents and  protect the reinforced corners.
  • Check perforations are clear of debris before each use to ensure proper drainage.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Gastronorm Pan

Not sure which GN pan is the perfect fit for your kitchen? Here are a few things to consider.

Size Matters

GN sizing is a global standard. '1/1' is the base size (530x325mm), with others like 1/2, 1/3, and  2/3 being fractions of that. Check your appliance's capacity to choose the right configuration.

Depth and  Capacity

Pans come in depths from 20mm to 200mm. Shallow pans are great for grilling or presenting small items, while deep pans are for boiling, sauces, or holding large batches.

Perforated or Solid?

Choose perforated pans like this one for steaming, roasting, and  draining. Use solid pans for wet dishes like curries, stews, sauces, and  boiling.

Material Choices

Stainless steel is the king of durability, hygiene, and  versatility, safe for ovens, freezers, and  service. Polycarbonate is lighter and  great for cold storage and  prep, but not for heat.

Don't Forget Lids

Lids are essential for transport, storage, and  keeping food warm. You can get standard lids, notched lids (for utensils), and  sealing lids for different needs.

How Perforations Deliver a Better End Product

Ever wonder why some steamed vegetables are bright and  crisp while others are limp and  waterlogged? The secret is often in the pan. The perforations in this 1/1 size perforated gastronorm tray act like a built-in colander. As you steam or roast, steam circulates freely around the food for faster, more even cooking. At the same time, any excess water from steaming or fat from roasting drips straight through to the pan below.

Think of it like draining pasta—you wouldn't serve it straight from the boiling water. This pan does the draining for you, in real-time. The result is food that's perfectly cooked, not boiled or stewed in its own juices. This simple design feature makes a huge difference to the final texture and  taste of your dishes, keeping them exactly as you intended.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Restaurant Kitchens: Perfect for roasting meats and  allowing fats to drain away, resulting in a healthier, crispier product.
  • Hotel Buffets: Ideal for serving steamed vegetables or seafood, keeping them fresh and  appetising without sitting in water.
  • Contract Caterers: Its standard sizing and  durable build make it a reliable choice for transporting and  serving food at events.
  • Fish and  Chip Shops: Excellent for holding and  draining fried items in a hot display, maintaining that crucial crunch.
