Product Information

Full details

The Araven Gastronorm Ingredient Bin (16Ltr) is an essential storage solution for professional kitchens and food preparation environments, specifically designed for chefs and managers who prioritize inventory efficiency and ingredient freshness. Its primary benefit is the specialized front-opening design that allows for easy access to contents without having to unstack units, which significantly improves workflow speed; however, users should note that while it is highly durable, the bin occupies a specific footprint that requires clear shelving space.

FAQs

Can these bins be used in a freezer?

These bins are designed primarily for ambient dry storage, though they are made of durable plastic; always check your specific temperature requirements for cold storage.

Are the bins airtight?

The bins feature a secure lid, but they are not vacuum-sealed, so they are best used for dry ingredients that do not require an airtight environment.

How many bins can be stacked safely?

While the design is sturdy, for safety and balance, we recommend stacking no more than three units high depending on your shelf stability.

What is the material made of?

The bins are manufactured from professional-grade, food-safe plastic suitable for commercial culinary use.

Can I purchase extra color-coded clips?

Yes, the clips are designed to be replaceable if they are lost or if you wish to expand your color-coding system.

Troubleshooting

Lid feels difficult to open

Check the hinge area for dried food debris or residue and clean with warm soapy water.

Clips not snapping into place

Ensure the clip is aligned with the specific slot on the bin and press firmly until an audible click is heard.

Label residue sticking to the bin

Use a food-safe adhesive remover or warm water with a mild degreaser to safely lift stubborn label residue.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Efficient FIFO rotation access even when stacked
  • Durable, professional-grade material construction
  • Integrated labeling system for improved inventory tracking
  • Dishwasher safe for easy sanitation
  • Includes color-coded clips for systematic organization

Cons

  • Requires specific shelving height to utilize the stackable feature
  • Limited to a single 16Ltr capacity size
  • The front-opening lid requires care to ensure a tight seal over long-term use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup is straightforward: simply snap the provided color-coded clips onto the designated points on the bin before first use. Ensure you apply clear, waterproof labels to the integrated label area to keep your inventory organized. For cleaning, the bins are fully dishwasher safe. While they are made of durable plastic, avoid using abrasive steel wool or harsh scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface and create niches for bacteria to grow. Always inspect the lid hinges periodically to ensure they remain functional and provide a secure closure.
