In 2007, Green Pan introduced the world to Thermolon™, the original healthy ceramic nonstick. Instead of plastic, their coating starts with sand. Thermolon™ is the first alternative to traditional nonstick coatings, the first plastic-free nonstick, and the first nonstick coating made without PFAS, PFOA, lead, or cadmium. In less than 15 years, Green Pan has become the leader in healthy nonstick cooking.
