Buffet & Bread Baskets

Choose a Basket Based on Serving Style and Size

For table bread service, smaller round, oval, or rectangular baskets are often suitable, while larger models provide greater capacity for breakfast buffets and self-service stations. The assortment also includes baguette baskets, models with higher or sloping sides, and baskets for fruit and other buffet products.

Compare the basket’s length, width, and height with both the quantity to be served and the available space. For buffets where several baskets are used together, consistent dimensions and matching collections can help create a cohesive presentation.

GN Baskets for Buffet Systems

The assortment includes buffet baskets in Gastronorm formats, including models from the APS GN Line. For example, baskets are available in GN 1/4 and GN 1/6 sizes, making them easy to combine with other equipment and display solutions that follow the same sizing system.

GN formats can be especially useful for hotel breakfasts and other buffets where the same modular dimensions are used for containers, trays, and baskets. Always check the exact GN size and depth of the selected model.

Materials, Lids, and Cleaning

Buffet and bread baskets are available in a variety of materials and constructions. Woven polypropylene models can provide a look similar to traditional natural materials, while metal and wooden baskets offer different presentation and table-setting possibilities. Material and construction also affect weight, handling, and maintenance.

For bread and pastries, models with lids or roll-top covers are also available. A roll-top lid can be practical in self-service environments because guests can open and close the basket without completely removing the lid. For example, Sunnex offers a woven PP bread basket with a roll-top cover designed for bread and pastries.

Cleaning instructions may vary even between baskets made from the same material. Always check whether the selected model is dishwasher-safe or requires specific care.
