RELIABLE AND SUSTAINABLE COOKING 

For 60 years, T-fal has constantly innovated to offer eco-friendly, safe and quality products to guarantee successful healthy cooking every day.  

 

 

PFOA FREE


T-fal was one of the first manufacturers to eliminate PFOA from its non-stick coatings over a decade ago. T-fal non-stick coated cookware products are subject to very regular analyses carried out by independent laboratories under the strictest methodologies. These checks have systematically established the absence of PFOA in T-fal products.  


ALL YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED


WHAT IS T-FAL NON-STICK COATING MADE OF? 


T-fal nonstick coating is a technical coating made from a polymer named polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).  


WHAT IS PTFE? IS IT SAFE?


PTFE, polytetrafluoroethylene, is a fluoropolymer that is used in non-stick coatings. PTFE is inert, which means it is safe for ingestion and for human health. The World Health Organization (WHO), the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), French health authorities, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have confirmed that PTFE is safe for human health and are approved for food contact. 


WHAT IS PFAS? PFOA? PTFE? 


The term PFAS (perfluoroalkyl substances or polyfluoroalkyl substances) refers to a large family of substances with highly varied chemical properties. PFAS can be divided into two groups; one where PFOA is a known “forever chemical” that remains and accumulates in the environment where it can cause adverse health effects. The other is PTFE, which is a polymer that is safe for ingestion and for human health.  

DOES T-FAL USE PFOAS IN PRODUCTS?

T-fal and its suppliers do not use PFOA in our manufacturing processes. 

DOES T-FAL NON-STICK COATING

CONTAIN PFOAS, CADMIUM OR LEAD?

No, there is no PFOA, cadmium or lead in any of T-fal’s cookware.

ARE MY T-FAL NON-STICK POTS AND

PANS DISHWASHER SAFE?

Yes, T-fal nonstick pots and pans are dishwasher safe.

However, to prolong the life of your pan,

we recommend hand washing with a non-abrasive sponge. 

CAN I USE METAL UTENSILS WITH MY

T-FAL NON-STICK PANS AND POTS?

Please refer to the directions of use indicated on the packaging

or instructions included with the product. To extend the life of your cookware,

it is strongly recommended to use wood or silicone utensils. 

CAN I USE MY T-FAL NON-STICK PAN ON HIGH HEAT?

Nonstick coating can be damaged at high temperaturesas it can result in a

loss of nonstick properties.  A low-medium temperature is sufficient for cooking 

as the aluminum body of the pan heats up evenly. 

THE COATING ON MY FRYPAN CHIPPED, WHAT SHOULD I DO?

It is recommended to replace any nonstick cookware that has chipped, peeled, burnt,

scratched or has lost its nonstick properties over time.
