Gastronorm container 176x162x100 mm (polypropylene) KZ-GNP1610 – how to choose the right one
A polypropylene GN 1/6 gastronorm container measures 176 × 162 mm, 100 mm high, with a capacity of 1.6 l. This depth is the default setting in salad prep units and refrigerated counters, since it holds a reserve for several hours of work, and a spoon still reaches the bottom without effort.
At 1.6 l a station does not need topping up every half hour, which at the peak of service matters more than capacity alone. The cook swaps the container when there is a moment to spare, not when the ingredient suddenly runs out.
An opaque body requires the contents to be labelled if the container goes into the cold room overnight. At the station during work this does not matter, since the contents are visible from above.
What the GN sizes mean and how to choose the depth – we explained it in the selection guide for this category.
Where it works
- Salad prep units and refrigerated tables with GN 1/6 wells
- Breakfast buffet, jams, soft cheeses, sliced cold cuts
- Storing semi-finished products in a GN refrigerated cabinet
- Inserts in a transport trolley over a short distance
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Have not found your answer? Give the GN size and the intended use – we will select the containers.
Ask a questionHow many portions of salad does 1.6 litres hold?
With a topping portion of around 80 ml, that comes to roughly twenty portions, counting a fill level a few millimetres below the rim. For larger servings it is worth reckoning realistically with 80 percent of the nominal capacity.
Does a lid with a ladle notch fit this container?
A ladle notch makes sense for sauces in a bain-marie, where the ladle stays in the vessel. The lid size is always GN 1/6, so it is chosen by footprint, and the notched or plain variant by the way the item is served.
Is polypropylene suitable for a commercial dishwasher?
Yes, with standard washing programmes. With the hottest scalding cycles, thinner walls can deform at the edge over time, so plastic containers are arranged in the basket so they do not stand on each other under pressure.
