Product Features

Effortlessly transport your hot or cold food to your next catered event with this CaterGator Dash 23 5/8" x 15 3/4" x 9 13/16" black full size EPP flip down top loading insulated food pan carrier. This pan carrier offers optimal versatility and features a professional grade construction made from expanded polypropylene (EPP). This closed-cell bead foam provides thermal insulation with a high level of durability to weight ratio, plus it's an excellent energy absorbing material that withstands multiple impacts without damage. This high-tech material is extremely light weight - made of 96% air - while maintaining optimal impact and chemical resistance. It is also 100% recyclable and eco-friendly. Light enough to hold above your head with one hand, you will only need one person to carry this around, even when filled with food! This prevents workplace injuries from trying to carry those heavy plastic food carriers filled with your equally heavy supply of food. Additionally, this box folds down, allowing you to maximize space when not in use and helping you save on shipping costs.

This top loader offers a variety of pan carrying options, holding up to one full size 8" deep food pan. You also have the option to mix and match a 6" deep and 2 1/2" deep pan, one 4" deep pan and two 2 1/2" deep pans, or up to three 2 1/2" deep pans. The straight walls allow you to stack food pans with ease and are equipped with integrated recesses inside so you can get a good hold on your food pans while removing. For added convenience, the molded handles on either side of the carrier provide an ergonomic grip for comfort while transporting. Additionally, this carrier has a clever fold-down design that allows you to break it down to the size of a typical insulated food delivery bag, maximizing your limited space when not in use and helping you save on shipping costs! For larger catering events, this carrier is stackable, allowing for effortless transport in cars or vans.

The insulation quality of this carrier is also ideal for transporting your food for extended periods of time. It will hold cold food below 41 degrees Fahrenheit or hot food above 145 degrees Fahrenheit for up to four hours at a time! Plus, if you need a longer hold time, you can use the chilling and warming accessories (sold separately) to extend the duration of cold or hot food temperature maintenance. Finally, the carrier's sleek black color provides a standard professional appearance suitable for any event. Whether you use it to deliver personal meals, deliver take-out, host a large catered event, or for food bank giveaways, this insulated food pan carrier is the perfect way to transport and hold your delicious food without breaking your back or your budget!

    I could not possibly recommend these more!!! They say it keeps food hot or cold up to 4 hours, it goes LONGER! EASY to wash. I just now am seeing the cold/hot insert packs, but before I've kept things refrigerated temps with traditional frozen cold packs, but I'm going to get these inserts now! If you handle them with just a minimal amount of care, they will last forever! A hidden feature is I can use sidewalk chalk to write on them, and it easily wipes off when I'm done.

    These are great to use. Lightweight and easy on back and shoulders. Only downside is weak latches, I have 6 of these and I’ve broken 3 latches. Can’t find replacement latches either.

Product seems to work well for keeping food warm. The only issue I have with it is the latch. The door latch is extremely difficult/almost cheap feeling. Every time you go to open it you feel like you are going to hurt yourself somehow or break the latch.

These containers are good, but just not for heavy duty use. They eventually broke.

Fantastic! Will buy again! So light!

Great product! Pros: keeps the food nice and warm, no spills in vehicle because food is secure in carrier & overall great for caterings! Cons: only 4 pans were able to fit and I wish there were handles to make it a little easier to carry.
