Typical Specifications

Typical tray material

Food-grade stainless steel, commonly grades 304 or 201.

Gastronorm sizes

Full trolleys typically accommodate 1/1 GN trays, with various depths (e.g., 20mm, 40mm, 65mm, 100mm, 150mm, 200mm) being common.

Trolley construction

Welded or bolted stainless steel frame, often with lockable castors for mobility and stability.

Tray capacity per trolley

For this class of equipment, trolleys commonly hold between 10 and 20 full-size Gastronorm trays, depending on tray depth and trolley design.

Maintenance requirements

Generally low; regular cleaning with appropriate food-safe detergents is required. Inspection of castors and frame integrity is advisable.
