Stainless steel pans - pure metal in 3-ply construction

Stainless steel pans at Cook & Pan are pans in 3-ply construction of stainless steel: no coating, no polymer, just pure metal that handles extreme frying heat and lasts for years. No risk of wearing off, no harmful substances coming loose, no replacement moment in a few years. An honest choice for those who want control over the heat and set up their kitchen for the long run.

What does 3-ply construction mean?

Our stainless steel pans have a three-layer construction: two outer layers of stainless steel and an aluminium core in the middle. The stainless steel on the outside is hard, scratch-resistant and stays looking good; the aluminium core ensures fast and even heat conduction so you get no hot spots. This type of construction is also known as 3-ply or tri-ply and is what professional kitchens have been using for years. The Cook & Pan Honey line is a fine example: silver-coloured stainless steel, heat-resistant stainless steel handle up to 280 degrees in the oven.

Which stainless steel pan suits you?

The stainless steel range covers the basics of your kitchen:

• For everyday frying and searing meat - the stainless steel frying pan in 3-ply construction.
• For setting up your kitchen completely in one go - the stainless steel cookware set with multiple sizes in one box.

Who are stainless steel pans for?

Stainless steel pans are ideal for anyone who takes cooking seriously: searing meat on high heat, getting a good crust, reducing a pan sauce with the brown bits. They need a bit more preheating than a ceramic pan before you toss your egg in, but you get used to that quickly. Not the pan for those who want to dry-fry every day without oil; ceramic suits you better there. Stainless steel is for those who choose control, long life and a professional look.

Which hobs do stainless steel pans work on?

Our stainless steel pans work on every heat source: induction, gas, ceramic and electric. Stainless steel is naturally ferromagnetic so induction is no problem. Move to a different kitchen and your pans come along.

Care without coating worries

Stainless steel is robust and dishwasher safe. For hand washing: warm water and a sponge is enough. Stains from acid (tomato, lemon juice) or limescale come off with a bit of vinegar or a special stainless steel polish. You prevent a slightly warped base by warming the pan up slowly and not going from full power directly to cold water. Food sticking on? Let the pan simmer with a bit of water and salt, then the burnt-on bits release by themselves.

How long do stainless steel pans last?

Our stainless steel pans come with a 7-year warranty on manufacturing and material defects. In practice a good 3-ply stainless steel pan lasts much longer: there is no coating to wear out and the material itself becomes more beautiful over the years through natural patina. Want to try a pan first? You have 60 days of try-cooking to test it at home and still send it back if it does not suit you.

PFAS-free by material choice

Because our stainless steel pans have no coating at all, they are by definition free of PFAS, PFOA, PTFE and all other synthetic polymers. No slow release during heating, no residues in your dish. Want to see the broader PFAS-free range across all materials? Check our PFAS-free pans hub.
