Why this racking trolley earns its place
Most gastronorm trolleys are steel or aluminium, which means weld points that eventually fail and metal that rusts or corrodes with enough hot-and-cold cycling. Cambro's Camshelving GN Food Pan Trolley solves that by skipping metal entirely: it's built from a composite material Cambro rates as stronger than steel, with none of the failure points that come from welded joins. The whole thing is modular and component-based, so parts are replaceable individually rather than the trolley being scrapped when one section wears out — a real saving on maintenance cost over a trolley's working life.
It's sized for standard 1/1 full-size gastronorm pans, with rails spaced 7.6cm apart for versatility across different pan depths, and 3mm pan stops at each end of the rails to keep loaded trays stable in transit rather than sliding as the trolley moves. This is the short version, holding 9 trays — a composite build that's genuinely quieter than a metal trolley too, since there's no metal-on-metal contact to rattle as it's wheeled around a busy kitchen.
Finished in a speckled grey composite, it's built to present as well in the dining room as it does in the kitchen — Cambro designed it to work front or back of house, not just as a piece of back-of-house equipment kept out of sight. It moves on castors and is rated for indoor use, with an external footprint of 438mm wide by 730mm deep by 1016mm high, and a gross weight of 14.8kg. Cambro backs it with a 1-year warranty plus a further 1-year extended warranty.
