180C 1/8 Gastronorm Base

Made from high-performance BPA-free and melamine-free PET plastic. The Harfield 180°C range is fully approved for food contact under EU and FDA regulations. Engineered to withstand temperatures from -20°C to +180°C, these gastronorm containers offer exceptional resistance to sudden temperature changes, making them suitable for blast chilling and blast freezing.

Designed for maximum versatility, the same container can be used for cooking, microwaving, steaming, freezing, storing, transporting, as well as serving food. This can significantly help to reduce handling, and improve efficiency in commercial kitchens and catering environments.

Please note: this gastronorm is not suitable for induction hob cooking or direct heat sources such as gas flames, oven rings, or open burners.

Compared to traditional ceramic or glass alternatives, Harfield 180°C gastronorms are lightweight, chip-resistant, and safer to handle. The material cools quickly after heating, allowing for faster and safer service. While highly durable, these containers are not unbreakable.

The smooth, stain-resistant surface makes cleaning easy, and the gastronorm is both dishwasher and steriliser safe. Stackable construction allows efficient freezer storage and space-saving food transportation.

A larger 1/4 gastronorm size with optional lid is also available in the range (Product Codes: 1011CHA & 1033CHA), ideal for multi-portion catering.
