Available in both 1/2 and 1/3 GN-compatible depths with 80T (thin-wall) and 118T (thick-wall) variants, these pans fit directly into standard blast chillers, display freezers and napoli-style cabinet stacks while delivering superior freeze-thaw stability compared to traditional round containers.
As a direct manufacturer based in Guangzhou, China, KITALWARE presses these pans from 304 stainless steel sheet with smooth radiused corners that release frozen product cleanly and allow thorough sanitation between batches.

FAQ
Q: What is the difference between 80T and 118T?
A: 80T is the standard 80 mm depth for most gelato recipes; 118T is a deeper variant for high-volume layers and tall molded desserts.
Q: Are these compatible with standard GN pan racks?
A: Yes — the 360×250 dimensions align with 1/2 GN and the 360×165 with 1/3 GN, fitting any EN 631-compliant rack or cabinet.
Q: Can they go from freezer directly to oven for baked Alaska applications?
A: Yes — 304 stainless steel withstands oven temperatures up to 260°C (500°F); however, avoid thermal shock above 150°C differential.
