Gastronorm container 176x162x200 mm (polypropylene) KZ-GNP1620 – how to choose the right one
A polypropylene GN 1/6 at a height of 200 mm holds 3.4 l on a footprint of 176 × 162 mm. The proportions here are clearly vertical: the vessel is taller than it is wide, so it behaves like a small bucket fitted into the gastronorm standard.
Geometry like this gives the best ratio of capacity to shelf area occupied. Three and a half litres stand on an area where a shallow container would hold a litre, in a cramped cold room that is a real difference in the number of products on one level.
The price is stability and access. A tall, narrow vessel is easier to knock over when taken off a rack, and reaching the bottom needs a whole hand, so for products served with a spoon on an ongoing basis a shallower version is a better choice.
What the GN sizes mean and how to choose the depth – we explained it in the selection guide for this category.
Where it works
- Storing a reserve of sauce or stock in the back of house
- Fermented products and items constantly submerged in brine
- Tall refrigerated racks where shelf space matters more than height
- Transporting thick semi-finished products between the kitchen and the service point

Frequently asked questions

Ask a questionCan a full container be carried safely with one hand?
Three and a half litres is about three and a half kilograms, so technically yes. The problem is more the lack of handles and the high centre of gravity, which is why a full vessel is better held with both hands or carried on a tray.
Will product cool in the cold room in such a tall container?
It will cool, but slowly, the thickness of the layer here is the greatest in the whole GN 1/6 family. Hot product is first split between shallow vessels and only transferred to the tall one once it has cooled.
Which lid fits the 200 mm version?
The same as for all other GN 1/6, i.e. KZ-GNP16 in polypropylene or KZ-GNT16 in polycarbonate. The lid rests on the edge of the footprint, and that is identical at every depth.
