Introducing the Harfield 180°C 1/4 Gastronorm Base – a durable, reusable and sustainable alternative to single-use foil and plastic food containers. Manufactured in the UK, this high-performance gastronorm is designed for professional catering, food service, meal prep, takeaway and commercial kitchen environments.
An optional matching lid is also available (Product Code: 1033CHA) for secure storage and transport.
Made from premium BPA-free and melamine-free PET plastic. The Harfield 180°C range is fully approved for food contact by both EU and FDA standards. Designed to withstand temperatures from -20°C to +180°C. Our gastronorms are suitable for blast chilling, blast freezing, microwaving, steaming, cooking, serving and food storage – all in the same container. Their excellent thermal shock resistance makes them ideal for busy commercial kitchens and food delivery operations.
Unlike heavier alternatives, Harfield 180°C gastronorms are lightweight, chip-resistant and easy to handle, helping improve kitchen safety and service efficiency. The dishes cool quickly after heating, making them safer to touch within minutes. While highly durable, please note these containers are not unbreakable. They should also not be used on direct heat sources such as gas flames, oven rings or induction hobs.
Designed for convenience and hygiene, the gastronorm base is dishwasher safe, steriliser safe, stain resistant and easy to clean. Its stackable design maximises freezer and storage space while making transportation more efficient.
For smaller food portions, a matching 1/8 gastronorm size with optional lid is also available within the Harfield 180°C range (Product Codes: 1017CHA & 1035CHA).
As part of Harfield’s commitment to sustainability, this product is 100% recyclable as well as designed to support reusable food service solutions.
