Ozeri 12 Stone Frying Pan with APEO & PFOA-Free Non-Stick Coating

Crafted with a custom-formulated stone-derived coating from Germany, the Stone Frying Pan by Ozeri stands out for its ability to deliver exceptional non-stick performance while remaining entirely free of toxic substances. These include APEO, GenX fluorinated chemicals, PFBS, PFOS, PFOA, and the lesser-known NMP and NEP.

According to the FDA, many of these chemicals belong to a concerning class of non-stick compounds that have found their way into the food chain, including grocery store meats and seafood. Both the EPA and FDA have conducted toxicology research suggesting associations between exposure to some of these compounds and various types of cancer and health issues.

While the harmful PFOA and PFOS acids are being phased out of production, today's non-stick coatings often incorporate a new generation of fluoropolymers, such as GenX fluorinated chemicals and PFBS. However, the EPA has cited these as potentially carcinogenic and capable of affecting the kidneys, blood, immune system, liver, and developing fetuses when consumed.

Additionally, APEO chemicals, which are restricted in Germany due to environmental concerns and toxicity in the food chain, are a cause for concern. By avoiding the use of any of these "forever chemicals," the Stone Pan's coating sets a new standard for food safety and environmental responsibility.

The coating is applied using a water-based technique that is also free of the potentially harmful NMP and NEP chemicals sometimes found in cookware. This makes the Stone Pan far more durable and scratch-resistant than other non-stick surfaces, with the added benefit of being a breeze to clean.

The pan itself is constructed with a heavy-gauge aluminum core, enabling fast and even cooking without hot spots. Its magnetized bottom ensures rapid heat transfer on induction stoves, while the heat-resistant silicone-coated handle provides a comfortable and secure grip.

Crafted by Weilburger GmbH in Germany and assembled in China, the Stone Frying Pan represents a significant advancement in eco-friendly cookware. By leveraging a stone-derived coating that is 100% free of the controversial chemicals mentioned, it delivers unparalleled non-stick performance without the risk of exposure.
