Polycarbonate Food Pans

Polycarbonate food pans are a staple in commercial kitchens due to their versatility, durability, and resistance to temperature extremes. Made from a high-impact plastic, these pans are designed to withstand temperatures ranging from -40° to 99° Celsius (-40° to 210° Fahrenheit), making them suitable for use in freezers, refrigerators, prep tables, and steam tables. Their transparent design also allows for easy content identification, which helps streamline kitchen operations and reduce food waste.

Compared to stainless steel food pans, polycarbonate versions are lighter in weight and less expensive, yet still offer a strong and durable solution for food storage and service. They resist cracking, chipping, and warping under heavy use and are generally safe for use in both hot and cold food applications. Many models are NSF Certified and designed to stack easily without sticking, making them a space-efficient choice for busy kitchens.

Polycarbonate pans are available in full, half, third, quarter, sixth, and ninth sizes, with various depth options to suit different storage needs. Some pans also include volume markings to aid in portioning and inventory management. To complete the setup, compatible accessories like drain shelves and snap-on lids help maintain food freshness and allow for more organized storage.
