I am looking for bulk bannetons, or proofing baskets, at a fair price. I need to buy several hundred of them and the cheapest I can find are on amazon for around $10 each. I also want them to be rectangular, at least 8" long and 4" wide. If anyone can point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it!
carries a variety of baskets at reasonable prices. I haven't checked to see if they offer any volume discounts.
The two brotformen I purchased from them for home use have served well.

hi, not sure if you've looked at these, these aren't rectangular, but they have others. I use these for all my breads 700-850 grams of dough. make sure to use rice flour for dusting, they pop right out of the baskets and leave a really nice pattern. I buy mine at a local restaurant depot in NY, but online you can try perhaps below link. sets of 12 range around 15-20 dollars. I've had mine for years.

They are cheap. They however come from China and I don't care for Chinese products.
