The Cambro 16PP is a full size Gastronorm food pan from the Translucent line, 6" deep with a 20.6 qt. capacity and a 20 7/8" x 12 3/4" footprint. Molded in translucent food-safe plastic, it lets you see contents and fill level at a glance, and the uniform 1/2" flange drops cleanly into prep tables, cold food bars and Cambro top-loading carriers. It is NSF listed, rated from -40°F to 185°F, and safe in high-heat commercial dishwashers. Sold by the case of 6.
Translucent Polypropylene: The Economical GN Pan
Translucent Food Pans are molded to Gastronorm dimensions, so a full size pan interchanges with any other GN full size pan or adapter bar in a prep table, cold well or food bar. The non-stick, smooth interior releases product cleanly, which means better yield when scraping out sauces, dressings and salads and less effort at the sink. Graduations molded into the wall read in both U.S. and metric units, and the textured bottom reduces scratch damage as pans slide across stainless steel shelving. The material resists stains, acids, odors and cleaning chemicals, and holds up from -40°F to 185°F (-40°C to 85°C), covering freezer, walk-in and dishwasher cycles.
In practice the translucency is the working advantage: a cook can check inventory on a reach-in shelf or in a loaded carrier without pulling lids, and a manager can walk a cold line and see which pans need topping up. Pans nest for compact storage when empty, and the same GN footprint is shared by Cambro's translucent covers, seal covers, drain shelves and colander pans, so one pan family covers prep, storage, transport and service. Every pan is NSF listed and commercial dishwasher safe, with personalization available from Cambro.
