GreenPan Cookware

So you're starting to hear rumors that many traditional nonstick cookware pieces contain toxic chemicals within their ceramic coating... unfortunately, the allegations seem to be true. Research is showing that most ceramic nonstick pans and pots contain "forever chemicals" in the ceramic nonstick coating they're equipped with. Forever chemicals are linked to a variety of diseases - but we have good news for you! We've made it easy for you to select the best non toxic ceramic cookware by carrying the GreenPan cookware line!

The Scoop on Nonstick Cookware

Let's face it, you probably love cooking with nonstick pans (we do too!) They're perfect for whipping up your morning eggs, sauteing favorite veggies, and searing chicken thighs, all without worrying about prolonged scrubbing afterward. Nonstick cookware eliminates the need to use cooking sprays and excessive oil when cooking food, while providing unmatched heat distribution. Many nonstick cookware pieces are metal utensil safe and scratch resistant to other types of kitchen accessories, such as silicone, bamboo, and wood utensils. Some nonstick cookware pieces are dishwasher safe and oven safe as well, unlike many other types of cookware (like cast iron and stainless steel) that require hand washing and are only safe to use on the stove. However, all of the great features of traditional nonstick cookware can lose their edge when health concerns are at stake. That's where GreenPan cookware comes in to right all the wrongs of the nonstick cookware market. Let's take a deep dive into this cookware company and reveal what they bring to the table!

Meet The Original GreenPan Cookware Line

GreenPan was founded by Jan Helskens and Wim De Veirman, who wanted to change the game of nonstick cookware by designing ceramic nonstick pans and pots made without the harmful toxins found in the typical nonstick coating. To do this, they created the Thermolon coating, which eliminated the need to use toxic chemicals on their cookware. By using sand as the base of their non stick coating instead of plastic, GreenPan frying pans and pots are as food safe as cast iron and stainless steel cookware, while still keeping the nonstick properties of typical nonstick cookware. Helskens and De Veirman knew that when the inevitable question, "Is GreenPan cookware safe?" would be asked, they wanted to respond with truthful knowledge that their customers could trust their genuinely non toxic cookware. Now competing with cookware brands like Williams Sonoma, Cuisinart, and Gotham, GreenPan boasts one of the highest ratings for food safe cookware - and we thank Jan Helskens and Wim De Veirman for that!

GreenPan: A Cookware Company with a Green Thumb

GreenPan's goal is to provide a truly food-safe, health-conscious, non toxic ceramic cookware option for their customers. GreenPan puts health first - both for humans and also for the environment.

GreenPan Cookware Has So Much Pot-ential in Your Kitchen!

Ceramic cookware, stainless steel pots, silicone utensils, and pan protectors can all be found at GreenPan, in addition to everyday appliances like rice cookers, air fryers, slow cookers, and waffle makers. Whatever kitchen aesthetic you're going for, GreenPan has you covered - most of their cookware comes in a variety of visually-pleasing pastels that will beautifully complement any color scheme. Many of their pots and pans come with clear, tempered glass lids that allow you to check how your food is cooking without lifting them and losing all of the heat. The lids do well with medium heat, standing temperatures of up to 425˚F. GreenPan ceramic nonstick pots and pans are also generally dishwasher safe and oven safe, withstanding high heat - up to 600˚F, to be exact!
