Most non-stick cookware on the market is made with perfluorooctanic acid (PFOA). This chemical is pervasive in the environment and is a toxicant, as well as a carcinogen in animals. This coating can easily scratch, chip or peel if metal cooking utensils are used. There is also a danger of PFOA cookware releasing harmful byproducts when exposed to high temperatures. Our Xtrema non reactive cookware is made with only all-natural materials and can withstand temperatures of up to 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit with ease. At these temperatures, normal cookware typically begins to break down.
How many times have you turned on the oven to preheat your pans before adding your ingredients? When an empty pan coated with PFOA is placed in an oven, it can quickly and easily reach temperatures of over 800 degrees. At this temperature, the coating on most non-stick cookware will break down and release harmful chemicals.
Our non reactive cookware can be preheated safely to high temperatures, and our cookware and glaze can withstand temperatures up to 2,500 degrees. By using non reactive cookware you are eliminating the risk of exposing yourself and your family to chemical byproducts that are not only hazardous to your health, but also to the environment.
When looking at your cookware options, it’s important to understand what you are purchasing. Some cookware is coated with PFOA, a harmful chemical that breaks down under high temperatures, while other cookware uses aluminum, which can melt when exposed to extreme heat. Yet other types of cookware are made from cast iron, which releases iron particles into the atmosphere. A better option is our Xtrema ceramic, which is the best non-toxic, non reactive cookware option on the market. When looking at the alternatives, the choice is easy.
