Araven 00256 GN 1/1 Drain Tray

Institutional kitchens in schools, kindergartens and hospitals rely on drain trays placed at the bottom of gastronorm containers to keep raw meat and fish stored separately from the liquid they release. The Araven 00256 is a GN 1/1 format tray designed to drain off the exudate produced during cold storage.

Keeping food above the level of this liquid reduces the risk of the exudate flowing back onto the meat or fish and helps preserve the quality of raw ingredients for longer. A design free of sharp corners and recesses makes the tray easier to clean after use.

Features

• GN 1/1 format, matching gastronorm containers of the same size.
• Drains the juice (exudate) released by meat and fish during storage.
• Reduces the risk of bacterial growth linked to contact between food and liquid.
• Rounded shape with no sharp corners or recesses — easy to wash.
• Part of the Araven range of trays designed for gastronorm containers of different formats.

Specifications

Using drain trays matters most during periods of high kitchen workload, when several batches of raw meat and fish from different sources are stored at the same time, and following separate-storage rules helps avoid cross-contamination.

Following separate-storage rules for foods that release juice is part of meeting sanitary requirements in an educational or healthcare institution's kitchen. The Araven 00256 drain tray is used together with GN 1/1 gastronorm containers and fits into cold storage areas where raw meat and fish semi-finished products are kept.
