Gastronorm containers - defined standard for every kitchen

GN containers - a standard that has revolutionised kitchen equipment

The gastro standard EN 631 from 1993, which goes back to a standard established in Switzerland some 30 years earlier, defines a system for container formats in professional kitchens, that is now recognised and used worldwide. Starting with the basic GN 1/1 size, which corresponds to 32.5 by 53 centimetres, various basic dimensions are defined concerning this. Each basic size is available in various useful heights.

All Gastronorm containers can be stacked inside one another and are suitable for robust use in everyday kitchen life. They are safe to use following overall food legislation, dishwasher-safe and can also be cooled and heated, depending on the material. There are different handle and lid solutions, depending on where the GN containers are used.
