1/1 Gastronorm Trays Maintenance:

1. Daily Cleaning

After each use, immediately remove any food debris and clean the inside and outside surfaces of your dishes with warm water and a neutral detergent. For stubborn stains, use a stainless steel cleaner. Avoid strong acids or alkalines, as these can damage the polished surface. After cleaning, wipe dry with a dry cloth to prevent residual moisture that could cause rust or stains.

2. Regular Inspection and Maintenance

Check the edges and surfaces of your dishes weekly for scratches or dents. Repair or replace any if necessary. For frequently used dishes, we recommend a quarterly inspection to ensure they remain smooth and free of sharp edges.

3. Preventing Scratches and Impacts

During use and storage, avoid scratching or impacting your dishes with hard objects to prevent scratches or dents. When storing, stack your dishes and place soft cloths or cardboard between each layer to reduce friction. For dishes that are frequently moved, add protective pads to the edges to reduce wear.

4. Regular Polishing

Polish your plates quarterly using a stainless steel polish and a soft cloth, following the instructions in the manual. Polishing effectively restores the surface gloss and resists fingerprints, ensuring the plates maintain their aesthetic appeal over time. For frequently used plates, we recommend polishing them more frequently to extend their lifespan.

5. Storage Environment Control

For long-term storage, keep plates in a dry, well-ventilated environment, away from humidity and high temperatures. If possible, apply a thin layer of cooking oil to the surface to prevent oxidation and rust. Regularly check the humidity and temperature of the storage environment to ensure the plates are not damaged during storage.
