About Stainless Steel 1/6 GN Pan

A Stainless Steel 1/6 GN Pan is a compact, durable kitchen tool designed for high-performance use in commercial kitchens, buffets, and catering setups. Heres a detailed description:

Stainless Steel 1/6 GN Pan:

• Material:

  • Made from high-quality stainless steel, which is known for its durability, resistance to corrosion, and easy-to-clean surface. Stainless steel ensures the pan will last through heavy use, resist staining, and maintain hygiene in professional kitchen environments.

• Size:

  • The 1/6 GN pan is a sixth-size version of the standard Gastronorm (GN) pan, measuring approximately 176mm x 162mm (6.93 x 6.38).
  • It is the smallest of the standard GN sizes, making it perfect for smaller food portions, and is often used in applications that require flexibility and space efficiency.

• Capacity:

  • Typically holds around 1.5 to 2.5 liters of food, depending on its depth. This size is ideal for serving or storing smaller quantities of food, such as condiments, sauces, side dishes, or desserts.

• Design:

  • The pan is rectangular with a smooth, polished finish, which makes it easy to clean and maintain.
  • Reinforced edges provide added strength and prevent warping or bending with frequent handling or heavy use in high-temperature environments.

• Applications:

  • Cooking: Suitable for use in ovens, steamers, or combi-ovens to bake, roast, or steam smaller portions of food.
  • Serving: Perfect for buffets, catering events, or food bars, where small amounts of food need to be served in a compact space. Ideal for holding salads, small appetizers, sauces, or side dishes.
  • Storage: Great for storing prepped food or leftovers in refrigeration or freezing units. Its smaller size helps optimize space in kitchen storage.

• Compatibility:

  • The 1/6 GN pan fits into standard GN food wells, steam tables, and chafing dishes, and is compatible with other GN pans in multi-compartment setups.
  • It is ideal for food bars or buffet lines, as it can be placed alongside other GN sizes (e.g., 1/4 GN, 1/2 GN) to create a seamless, modular food display.

• Benefits:

  • Space-efficient: The small size makes it perfect for applications with limited space, or for serving small portions of food, without taking up too much room in the kitchen or buffet setup.
  • Durable: The stainless steel construction ensures the pan holds up to frequent use, high temperatures, and cleaning cycles.
  • Easy to Clean: The smooth, non-porous surface resists staining and is easy to sanitize, meeting food safety and hygiene standards.
  • Versatile: Can be used for cooking, storing, and serving a variety of food items, making it a versatile tool for any professional kitchen.

Premium Quality and Durability

Constructed from AISI 201/304 grade stainless steel, the pan features a mirror-polished surface that is both aesthetically pleasing and highly functional. Its reinforced edges add structural strength, offering long-term resistance to corrosion and rust even under demanding use. This combination ensures the pans suitability for rigorous daily operations in professional kitchens.


Versatile Temperature Compatibility

Designed to perform across a broad temperature range, the pan safely transitions from deep freeze at -40C to oven heat up to +300C. Whether used for cold storage or high-heat applications such as baking or grilling, this pan maintains its structural integrity and food-safe quality, making it ideal for various cooking and storage needs.


Efficient Storage and Handling

The rectangular, stackable design minimizes storage space without sacrificing capacity, accommodating approximately 1.4 liters. Its flat base provides even support, and compatibility with standard 1/6 GN lids and equipment streamlines kitchen workflows. Easy to clean and dishwasher safe, it adds convenience to any commercial kitchen setting.
