Pizza Pans, Screens & Boxes

Pizza Pans, Screens & Boxes in Toronto & Canada

Pizza doesn't proof, bake, or serve itself, and this collection covers the pans, screens, and boxes that handle each step. For baking, Winco aluminum does most of the work: the Seamless Pizza Screen has a mesh bottom that helps transfer heat for a crispier crust and comes in sizes from 7" to 20", while the Coupe Style Pizza Pan is a solid, rimless pan from 8" to 18" that suits thin-crust pizza baked and served in the same pan. Before any of that, dough needs somewhere to rest: the Omcan 80889 Pizza Dough Proofing Box is a stackable 26" x 18" box in 3.25" or 6" heights, and the Omcan 80891 Cover keeps the top box protected. To serve, the Epicurean 12" Pizza Board is a heat and stain resistant round board with a handle. Whether you're running a pizzeria in Toronto, a bakery in Mississauga, or a takeout counter right here in Vaughan, Phoenix Food Equipment ships pizza pans, screens, and boxes across the GTA and nationwide across Canada.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions we hear from operators.

What size pizza screen or pizza pan do I need?

Match the screen or pan to the size of pizza you actually sell: a 12" pizza goes on a 12" screen or pan, a 16" pizza on a 16". The Winco Seamless Pizza Screen runs from 7" to 20" in one-inch steps, and the Coupe Style Pizza Pan runs from 8" to 18", so there's a size for everything from a personal pie to an extra-large. Most shops only need two or three sizes to cover the menu, and it helps to have a few of each so a clean one is always ready during a rush. Check the deck of your pizza oven too, since a screen or pan should sit comfortably with a little room around the edges for airflow.

How do you clean a pizza screen or aluminum pizza pan?

Let it cool completely first, then wash by hand with warm water, mild soap, and a soft, non-abrasive sponge. Dry it right away with a cloth or paper towel, because water left on aluminum can cause limescale to build up. For cooked-on cheese or sauce, boil the screen or pan in water with a little vinegar for four to five minutes to loosen the residue, then wash, rinse, and dry as usual. Winco's Seamless Pizza Screens are hand wash only, so keep them out of the dishwasher, and skip steel wool or harsh scrubbers that can scratch the aluminum. A quick routine after each service keeps screens and pans in working shape through daily use.

How do you use a pizza dough proofing box?

A proofing box gives portioned dough balls a place to rest and rise before they're stretched. Scale and ball the dough, set the balls in the box with a little space between them, then put the cover on so the surface doesn't dry out and form a skin. Depending on the recipe, dough proofs for a few hours at room temperature or for a day or more in the cooler. The Omcan 80889 boxes are all 26" x 18" and stack tightly, so a full stack of dough takes up very little space, and you can choose the 3.25" or 6" height depending on how much room your dough needs to rise. The 80891 cover is made for the 80889, and both are NSF certified.
