Overview

Roband BM24A Hot Bain Marie – 8 x 1/2 GN Pans, Double Row

The Roband BM24A is an Australian-made hot bain marie configured in a double row to hold 8 x 1/2 size gastronorm pans up to 100mm deep. Constructed from 304 stainless steel and powered by long-life Dura-life stainless steel elements, it maintains food at safe serving temperatures between 60 and 85°C, making it well suited to cafes, canteens, buffets and catering operations that need reliable, continuous hot-holding across a wide pan layout.

The unit operates in either wet or dry mode and can be dropped into an existing counter or paired with a compatible Roband stainless steel trolley for freestanding use. A safety lock ball valve drain simplifies cleaning, while removable cross bars and a built-in thermometer display support fast, practical service. Pans and lids are included, and a no-corner-legs drop-in variant (prefix NC, e.g. NCBM24A) is available as a made-to-order option.
