Green Earth 5.3 Quarts Non-Stick Ceramic Saucepan

Utilizing Greblon -- an ultra-safe ceramic coating from Germany, the 5 L (5.3 Quart) All-In-One Green Earth Sauce Pan by Ozeri is the world’s leading cooking pot, delivering non-stick perfection while remaining absolutely free of APEO and PFOA, and even lesser known chemicals such as NMP and NEP. Conventional saucepans and pots often achieve their non-stick performance with the aid of PFOA (PerFluoroOctanoic Acid), a potential carcinogen that the EPA has classified as a 'persistent pollutant of the environment, and APEO (Alkylphenol ethoxylates), which are under restricted use in Germany due to environmental concerns about their poor biodegradability and toxicity in the food chain. According to the EPA, once ingested, PFOA is capable of remaining in people for a very long time and has been shown to cause developmental and other adverse effects in laboratory animals. Likewise, European studies have shown that APEO may be toxic to aquatic life, and has the potential to act as an endocrine disrupter. With the Green Earth Sauce Pan's Green-derived coating from Germany, even under high temperatures, no such controversial chemicals are ever passed on to you or released into the environment. This is because the Green Earth Sauce Pan utilizes an inert coating inspired by nature, and is applied using a water-based Sol Gel Technique that is free of the lesser known but potentially harmful chemicals NMP (N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone) and NEP (N-ethyl-2-pyrrolidone) often found in traditional cookware. In addition to being completely free of PFOA, APEO, NMP, and NEP, the Green Earth Sauce Pan are also far more durable and scratch-resistant than other non-stick surfaces. With better non-stick properties, the Green Earth Sauce Pan consistently renders cleaning a breeze. The Green Earth Sauce Pan by Ozeri is made of the highest quality die-cast aluminum that allows for even cooking with maximum heat retention. It also features a magnetized bottom for rapid heat transfer on induction stoves. The All-In-One Green Earth Sauce Pan boasts a heat-resistant silicone-coated handle and side helper handle for safe and comfortable handling when cooking for larger family sizes. It also includes a tempered glass lid with a steam-release vent and heat-resistant knob. Your satisfaction is guaranteed. Greenhenge coating made by Weilburger GmbH, Germany.
