Araven 8.5 Qt Airtight Food Storage Container with Lid – Gastronorm EN 631

Engineered for professional kitchens

Meet the Araven 03044 Airtight Food Storage Container, a purpose-built solution for fast-moving foodservice environments. With an 8.5 quart capacity (about 2.1 gallons) and a slim 2.5-inch depth, this container fits neatly into prep lines and standard Gastronorm workflows while keeping ingredients organized and accessible. The clear body makes contents easy to spot at a glance, helping teams move from prep to service with confidence.

Designed to protect freshness and minimize leaks, the container features a double airtight seal formed by a flexible LDPE lid. The lid remains snug against the base even during busy service, helping prevent accidental spills and cross-contamination. A permanent integrated label is included for quick identification, dates, and contents, supporting traceability in bustling kitchens and catering operations.

Every pan includes a molded-in measuring scale and a Gastronorm size indicator, making portion control and inventory management simpler during peak hours. These features align with EN 631.1 standards, ensuring compatibility with GN inserts and standard container systems used across professional kitchens. When not in use, the containers nest for space-saving storage and stack securely with lids in place for efficient stacking during service.

Beyond performance, practical design touches help daily cleaning and maintenance: rounded corners reduce food buildup and ease wipe-downs, while the clear LDPE material resists scratches and maintains visibility over time. These elements combine to deliver a reliable storage option that supports consistent kitchen operations without promising guaranteed results—sensibly framing what storage can do in real-world settings.
