Shallow Depth Half-Size Foil Pans for Food Service

The WR3226S series of half-size rectangular aluminum pans provides an optimal wide-surface solution for commercial food service operations. Sourced directly from our automated stamping lines, these steam table pans meet the rigorous volume demands of restaurant chains, event caterers, and bakeries, maintaining full compliance with FDA, CE, and BRCGS food safety standards.

Optimized 40mm Depth for Baking & Roasting

At 40mm deep, the WR3226S is classified as a shallow catering tray. This profile is specifically tailored for culinary applications requiring maximum surface area exposure to heat. It is highly effective for baking brownies, sheet cakes, and cobblers, as well as roasting vegetables and preparing shallow casseroles where a crispy top layer is desired. The wrinkle-wall structure adds essential mechanical rigidity to the 324x264mm frame, ensuring the pan resists bending when loaded.

GN 1/2 Compatibility & Thermal Efficiency

Engineered to fit perfectly into standard catering chafers and steam tables, this 2300ml container is a staple for hot food holding and buffet lines. Its exceptional thermal conductivity allows for rapid, even heating and freezing. Kitchen staff can prep meals, blast freeze them, and transfer them directly to commercial ovens or warming trays within the exact same container, eliminating the need to transfer food and reducing prep time.
