Non-Stick Coating | Everyday cooking (eggs, fish) | Industry: PTFE-based (may contain PFOA) Our Base: PFOA-free coating (500+ scrub cycles per ASTM D3359) ▲ Our Advanced: Reinforced ceramic (1000+ cycles, NSF certified) ▲▲ | Easy food release, eco-friendly (Base/Advanced) | Advanced version costlier; requires gentle cleaning. |
Material Composition | High-heat tasks (sautéing, frying) | Industry: Single-ply stainless steel (poor heat distribution) Our Base: 3-ply stainless with aluminum core (ISO 3506 compliant) ▲ Our Advanced: 5-ply copper/aluminum layers ▲▲ | Even heat, durability | Heavier; Advanced model more expensive. |
Eco-Friendly Features | Sustainable cooking practices | Industry: 20% recycled materials (avg) Our Base: 30% recycled stainless steel (EU Ecolabel pending) ▲ Our Advanced: 100% recycled + carbon-neutral production ▲▲ | Reduced environmental impact | Limited color options in Advanced; Base lacks full certification. |
Handle Design | Prolonged cooking (stir-frying) | Industry: Basic metal handles (heat transfer) Our Base: Stainless steel with silicone grip (heat-resistant up to 446°F/230°C) ▲ Our Advanced: Ergonomic + cooling vents (reduces temp by 30%) ▲▲ | Comfort, safety | Base model slightly heavier; Advanced adds cost. |
Certification Compliance | Commercial kitchens | Industry: Basic local certifications Our Base: EU (EC) 1935/2004 & FDA compliant ▲ Our Advanced: NSF + BPA-free certification ▲▲ | Wider regulatory acceptance (e.g., hotels, restaurants) | Higher price for Advanced tier. |
Heat Conductivity | Searing, precise temperature control | Industry: Low (single-ply stainless, 20 W/m·K) Our Base: Medium (3-ply aluminum core, 65 W/m·K) ▲ Our Advanced: High (5-ply copper/aluminum, 85 W/m·K) ▲▲ | Faster, even cooking (ideal for searing) | Advanced model may warp on extreme heat; costlier. |
