Gastronorm Containers
Gastronorm Containers
- Gastronorm sizes are standard sizes of container used in the catering industry specified in the EN 631 standards
- Gastronorm container sizes are given as a fraction with a full size gastronorm container having a code of GN 1/1. The sizing is sometimes shown both with and without the GN.
- The gastronorm sizing system only covers length and width of containers, the depth is usually shown in metric measurement e.g. millimetres. This means each gastronorm container size can have different depths, and therefore varying capacities
- Below is a list of gastronorm sizes along with their corresponding metric size:
- GN1/9 : 108 x 176 mm
- GN1/6 : 176 x 162 mm
- GN1/4 : 265 x 163 mm
- GN1/3 : 325 x 176 mm
- GN1/2 : 325 x 265 mm
- GN2/3 : 354 x 325 mm
- GN1/1 : 530 x 325 mm
- GN2/1 : 650 x 530 mm
- Due to the fractional sizing system, gastronorm containers are often interchangable. For example if a serving counter has a GN 1/1 capacity it may be possible to interchange for two GN 1/2 or even a GN 1/2 and two GN 1/4.
