Ozeri The Stainless Steel All-In-One Sauce Pan by Ozeri with a 100% PFOA and APEO-Free Non-Stick Coating developed in the USA

Featuring ETERNA -- a safe and durable non-stick coating developed in the USA the Stainless Steel Earth Pan by Ozeri is the world s first stainless steel frying pan to achieve non-stick perfection without using PFOA or APEO -- harmful chemicals often found in traditional cookware. Conventional sauce pans achieve their non-stick performance with the aid of PFOA (PerFluoroOctanoic Acid) which 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 endocrine disrupters. With the Stainless Steel Earth Sauce Pans ETERNA coating even under high temperatures no such controversial perfluorinated chemicals are ever passed on to you or released into the environment. This is because the Stainless Steel Earth Sauce Pan utilizes a safer non-stick coating that is completely free of PFOA and far more durable and scratch-resistant than other non-stick surfaces. With better non-stick properties the Stainless Steel Earth Sauce Pan consistently renders cleaning a breeze.
