GreenPan Rio Advanced 2pc (10" and 12") Ceramic Nonstick Fry Pan Set Black

A: As long as the care and use are followed, there should be no issues with chipping or peeling. Please keep pan protectors in between when stacking for storage.

A: We use Thermolon ceramic non-stick coating.  The main ingredients are raw materials, which were originally derived from sand. No need for any chemicals like PTFE, PFOA or any other type of PFAS and we do not add any Cadmium or Lead.  Greenpan cookware is also BPA free. The Sol-Gel solution is simply sprayed onto the body of the fry pan without glues or additives. Finally, the coating is cured in the oven with 60% less CO2 emissions when compared to the curing of traditional non-stick. Our Thermolon coating does not contain any Nano particles. Accordingly, there is no possibility for Nano particles to leach into the food when cooking with GreenPan. Beneath the ceramic non-stick coating, there is an aluminum core in the center of all our cookware because it is a great heat conductor.

A: You can use a bit of baking soda and water paste.

A: Yes, the Rio Advanced is magnetic and will work with induction stovetops.

A: Yes, perfect for glass-top or gas.

A: This item is manufactured in GreenPan’s factory in China. Unlike most cookware companies, they own our factory, and carefully control the process. GreenPan has won numerous awards for environmental safety, worker satisfaction, and our overall standards. The factory has its own wastewater treatment plant and 30% of the factory’s energy comes from solar panels on the roof. They also have our own in-house research and development team working towards the next advancements in healthier and better cooking.

A: All pans are created with a concave base which is then adjusted at the end of the manufacturing process for a perfect concavity range. When a pan is heated, there a slight bend that occurs naturally.  The concavity that we create offsets this bend, so when your pan is heated it will sit flat on your stovetop, but it will not be perfectly flat. As a pan heats, it expands and if we attempt to create a perfectly flat pan that is heated too high, you will have the opposite issue and the pan will become convex rendering it completely useless. I hope you find this information helpful.

A: This is an open fry pan set and does not come with lids. Any universal lids matching the diameter of the pan will work.

A: We recommend wood or silicone utensils to keep your cookware looking great.
