Can I use it in an oven, microwave, or under heat lamps?

Can it be stacked?

What is it best used for?

Chilled prep, storage, and service on cold wells, buffets, fridges, and ingredient stations.

Any racking/shelving designed for GN 1/2 footprint will fit; depth clearance must allow 150 mm.

What other depths are available in this range?

Common 1/2 GN depths include 65 mm, 100 mm, and 200 mm—match depth to portioning and storage needs.
