Technical data 01 / 02
This transparent GN 1/9 lid is for polypropylene GN containers, including containers used for HACCP food storage. Its visible cover is useful where small preparations are organised separately: staff can identify contents during kitchen work without lifting the lid. The format suits individual containers for ingredients that need to remain distinct at a preparation station or in storage.
Where it is used
Use the lid with polypropylene GN containers holding ingredients or preparations for food storage. GN 1/9 is a small, standardised gastronorm format, so it suits keeping individual components in separate containers rather than combining them. At a preparation station, this separation helps staff keep ingredients arranged by task and select the appropriate container during assembly.
For HACCP food storage, the covered container keeps its contents together while the transparent lid leaves them visible. Staff can check what is held in each container during replenishment and identify remaining stock without opening containers in turn. Where several small preparations are stored together, the GN 1/9 format gives each component its own place in the storage arrangement.
How to choose
Match the GN 1/9 format and 176 × 108 mm footprint to the polypropylene GN container used for preparation or storage. The compact footprint corresponds to this small gastronorm format, helping distinguish lids for individual containers from those intended for larger GN formats. This is useful when a kitchen organises smaller ingredients as separate positions in its container system.
Choose the transparent lid when visibility through the cover matters during routine kitchen work. Staff can check the contents and remaining stock visually, then select a container without lifting its lid just to identify what is inside. That makes the cover useful both when arranging prepared ingredients and when checking the contents of containers grouped in storage. Compatibility across polypropylene GN containers also makes it suitable for use with that container type, including containers used for HACCP food storage.
