The APS FROSTFIRE tray is a GN 1/3 aluminium serving and display tray finished in a two-tone black and silver non-stick coating. It is designed to sit within standard gastronorm systems and is commonly used for food presentation at buffets, carvery counters, catering displays, and food service stations where appearance matters alongside practicality.
The aluminium construction distributes heat evenly, and the tray is suited to use across a wide temperature range — moving from a chilled display to a warm service environment without issue. This makes it a practical option for operators who need a single tray to cover both cold and hot holding applications without switching equipment mid-service.
From an operational standpoint, the FROSTFIRE tray offers several practical advantages:
- Non-stick coating simplifies cleaning and reduces preparation time between services
- GN 1/3 sizing integrates directly into existing gastronorm counters, bains-marie and display units
- Stackable profile keeps storage tidy in tight kitchen or back-of-house conditions
- Dishwasher safe, which helps maintain throughput in busy operations
- The finish presents well on open buffet counters where tray appearance is visible to guests
One point worth noting: the coating is not cut-resistant, so it should not be used as a cutting surface, and metal utensils should be avoided to preserve the finish and extend the tray’s working life.
This tray is well suited to hotels, contract caterers, event catering operations, and any food service environment that uses gastronorm-compatible equipment. It is a single-size item — operators equipping larger counters or high-volume buffet runs may want to consider whether a full GN 1/1 or 1/2 format would better suit their layout.
If you are building out a display counter or buffet setup and want to talk through which tray sizes and quantities make sense for your service style, we are happy to help.
