GreenPan Cookware
As the inventor of healthy ceramic non-stick cookware, GreenPan is the trusted go-to brand for non-toxic, easy to clean and easy to use pots and pans. 100% free from PFAS, PFOA, lead or cadmium, GreenPan cookware allows you to create meals with confidence with zero risk of toxic fumes or harmful particles being released even if you accidentally overheat your pan.
Established by two school friends Wim De Veirman and Jan Helskens, with a vision to create a healthy alternative after discovering that traditional non-stick cookware uses polymer based substances (PFAS) in the manufacturing process of the coating and that, if overheated, toxins could be released into the environment. Following significant research, a ceramic coating – Thermolon – was developed with sufficient non-stick and abrasion resistance properties.
GreenPan’s manufacturing process
The main material of GreenPan’s Thermolon ceramic coating is a sand derivative. This sand derivative is turned into a sprayable solution using a Sol-Gel procedure. The solution is then sprayed onto the frying pan body before being cured in an oven – with no need for additional additives such as PFAS, in the manufacturing process. Compared to traditional non-stick coatings, this process also produces 60% less CO2 emissions.
GreenPan cookware isn’t just about its ceramic coating. Their cookware also boasts a number of innovative features and technologies dependent on the range and material of the cookware, the most important of which include:
• Reinforced ‘scratch guard’ surface technology – increasing resistance to scratches and coating damage.
• Hardened exteriors for durability and toughness.
• Magneto energy-saving induction base technology for us on all types of heat source.
• Oven safe handles that are comfortable and durable.
• Upcycled aluminium and stainless steel are used where possible.
GreenPan are constantly pushing the boundaries at the forefront of healthy cooking technology and the latest ranges of cookware features the 8th evolution of the company’s innovative Thermolon coating – ‘Infinite 8’ – reinforced with diamonds for improved resilience, performance and durability.
