Electric Pans

Electric Pans are electric heated serving pans designed to keep cooked food at safe, ready-to-serve temperatures in busy commercial kitchens and catering setups. This range includes compact and large countertop pans in various diameters to suit different dishes and service volumes. Ideal for hotels, restaurants, cafes and event caterers across Ireland, they support efficient buffet lines, carveries and self-service counters. Consistent, adjustable heat helps maintain food quality, hygiene and presentation throughout service.

• Countertop electric heated pans in a choice of sizes such as 37 cm, 41 cm and 55 cm for flexible food holding.
• Adjustable temperature controls for precise hot holding of sauces, sides, mains and garnishes.
• Durable construction from trusted brands like Bartscher for reliable daily use in professional environments.
• Even heat distribution to reduce hot spots and maintain safe serving temperatures across the whole pan.
• Ideal for buffets, hotel breakfast service, canteens and event catering where food must stay hot and appealing.
• Easy-to-position units that integrate with existing hot holding equipment, bain maries and serving counters.

How to choose the right Electric Pans

• Match the pan size to your menu and service volume, choosing larger diameters for main dishes and smaller units for sides or sauces.
• Consider available countertop space and layout so the electric pans fit comfortably on your pass, buffet or servery.
• Check temperature range and control precision to ensure safe hot holding for the types of food you serve.
• Look for robust, commercial-grade construction suitable for intensive daily use in hotels, restaurants and canteens.
• Think about service style, whether front-of-house buffet, self-service, or back-of-house holding, to select the most suitable format.
• Review power requirements and plug type to ensure compatibility with your existing electrical setup.

Care and maintenance

• Allow electric pans to cool before cleaning and always disconnect from the power supply first.
• Wipe interior and exterior surfaces daily with warm, mild detergent and a soft cloth to maintain hygiene.
• Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals that can damage the finish or heating surface.
• Regularly inspect power cables, plugs and controls for wear or damage and replace if necessary.
• Keep ventilation and control areas free from grease build-up to ensure efficient, safe operation.
• Store pans in a dry, stable area when not in use to protect components and prolong service life.
