In the foodservice business, you have two opportunities to reduce spending on a daily basis. One of these is food costs, and we discuss portion control quite often here because that can make a real difference. The other opportunity is labor. Managing the expenses associated with staffing your operation while maintaining your customer service is a balance most foodservice operators in restaurants to school cafeterias to hospital foodservice are familiar. Any opportunity to reduce labor requirements on a daily or weekly basis can have a big benefit because the savings are cumulative over time. If you’re using hotel pans to hold foods for a serving line or for cooking then PanSaver products may be a labor saving opportunity for your operation.
What are PanSaver Pan Liners?
PanSaver Pan Lines are nylon liners designed to fit over various sizes of hotel pans and bain marie inserts that can withstand high temperatures. They are very thin so that they can easily be placed within a steam table pan and folded over the edges to fully line the pan. They are also high heat resistant so that they are ovenable, meaning you can cook with them inside your pan.
What are the benefits of PanSaver Pan Liners?
First, with these liners in place, you eliminate contact points between food and the hot metal surface of a hotel pan, so your food will not dry out, reducing food waste. But your real savings comes in the clean up! With a PanSaver Pan Liner in place, once you’re done with the pan all you need to do is lift out the liner and dispose of it. There’s no baked on foods or mess to clean up. The time spent scrubbing pans is eliminated reducing your overall labor.
How high a temperature can PanSaver Liners withstand?
The commercial PanSaver pan liners are ovenable to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. They can be used for cooking to that temperature and are also appropriate for use in heated carts when transporting food in steam table pans, in serving lines or food bars when holding food for serving.
What are PanSaver Electric Roaster Liners?
PanSaver manufactures liners specifically made to fit an electric roaster bringing the same benefits that you find in their pan liners to the roaster. Using an electric roaster is a very convenient cooking method for a variety of foods including large batches of foods such as macaroni and cheese, casseroles, chili or stews. Electric roasters are even a great way to cook a very large batch of vegetables when you want to cook, hold and serve in one appliance. They are also hard work to clean up as the liner of a roaster is large, heavy and possibly difficult to handle. Using a PanSaver Electric Roaster Liner can simplify clean up, eliminate scrubbing of baked on foods and save time. Just remove the Pansaver liner, toss in the garbage, wash out the pan and you’re done. The clear PanSaver Electric Roaster liners are temperature safe to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
The PanSaver products are all BPA-Free and Safe for Food Contact. They are also made in the USA.
