Hotel pans follow the GN (Gastronorm) sizing standard used across commercial foodservice. The full size hotel pan measures 12 by 20 inches and is the base reference for all other sizes. Fractional sizes fit inside or alongside a full size pan, making them compatible with the same steam tables, holding cabinets and prep table wells. Steam table pans are the most common hotel pan type in this collection, with 182 NSF-rated options from Winco and Thunder Group. They are designed to sit directly in steam table wells, holding food at safe serving temperatures during buffet and catering service. Stainless steel steam table pans are the most durable choice for daily commercial use. Polycarbonate food pans are a lighter alternative suited to cold holding in prep table wells and salad bars. The right material depends on the application. Stainless steel hotel pans handle heat, direct flame and heavy daily use without warping. Polycarbonate hotel pans are clear, making them easy to identify contents at a glance, and are lightweight for front-of-house display and cold use. Aluminum and aluminized steel bain maries are common in baking and pastry production. Bain maries are water bath pans used for gentle, even heat transfer when cooking custards, sauces and delicate preparations. All hotel pans, hotel sheet pans, hotel pan rack and commercial baking hotel trays in this collection are in stock and available for immediate shipping. Use the filters to sort by material, product type, capacity or NSF certification. For questions about sizing or compatibility with your steam table or prep table, contact Amechef directly.
