The MAKO Signature Set is where serious cookware begins. It’s beautifully engineered, perfectly balanced, and designed to perform for life. From effortless searing to slow-simmered sauces, every meal feels smoother, faster, and more precise.

Designed in our Melbourne studio.

At MAKO, we believe that if you obsess over every detail, you can make something better than it’s ever been made before. 

Our Genius range was born out of the frustration with what most people had to cook with: cheap, single-ply pans that lacked performance and quality (3-ply if you were lucky). So, we made a range of cookware for people who want the best.

What makes 5-Ply construction so special?

5-ply construction refers to cookware made with five layers of premium materials, each chosen for its unique properties to enhance cooking performance. This multi-layer design delivers the perfect balance of heat control, durability, and performance, making it ideal for serious home cooks and professionals alike.

What makes Genius Copper™️ 5-Ply even better?

  • Stainless steel clad exterior: The brushed stainless steel exterior doesn’t just look beautiful; it provides unbeatable durability and resists corrosion, scratches, and stains. Plus, it’s compatible with all cooktops, including induction, and offers a non-reactive surface that is perfectly neutral no matter what you’re cooking.
  • Aluminium layers: Adds lightweight strength and enhances heat distribution.
  • And importantly, a core of pure Genius Copper™️: Renowned for its exceptional heat conductivity, the Genius Copper core ensures rapid, even heating across the entire cooking surface.

No Compromises. Just the Best.

We didn’t cut corners. We didn’t settle. Every detail has been meticulously thought out. The MAKO Genius Copper™️ 5-Ply is designed for those who want the best.

WHAT'S 5-PLY COOKWARE?

SUPERIOR CONSTRUCTION


Not all cookware is created equal.
Many pans feature a multi-layered construction, where different metals are expertly fused together in thin layers to create the ideal balance of heat, performance and durability. This layered design is known as 'ply' or 'cladded' cookware.

Each metal brings its own advantage - whether it’s heat conductivity, retention or strength. Combining them allows for faster, more even cooking and longer-lasting performance in the kitchen.

So what’s the real difference between 1-ply, 3-ply, and 5-ply cookware - and why does it matter?

Reviews Summary
Customers say these cookware pieces provide outstanding even heat distribution and superior non-stick performance that requires minimal oil for cooking. Users appreciate the solid, heavy construction that feels well-made without being unwieldy. Many find the 5-ply design heats quickly and works excellently on induction cooktops. The non-stick surface allows effortless cooking and cleanup - often just requiring a simple wipe. Customers frequently mention using these pans for diverse dishes from eggs and stir-fries to curries and pasta. Several note they've expanded their collection after initial purchases. Many appreciate the sturdy feel and professional quality. Some mention the 20cm size feels small and would prefer a mid-size option between available sizes.

    Mako Genius !

    These frying pans have seriously changed my life. Cooking in them is an absolute pleasure and barely any oil is needed which is great from a health aspect as well as a cost one. I wish I’d purchased them sooner. They are so easy to clean up as well. I’ve chosen to hand wash rather than risk them in the dishwasher but even a simple wipe with a little oil on paper towel is enough. I love them so much and I’ll never use crappy cheap saucepans ever again. Amazing

    Amazing cookware

    I have an induction cooktop and for years have been buying the top brands of saucepans only to get a year out of them before I have to stop using them as the coating wears off. Mako has changed everything. Hot even cooking. I love them. No scratching or flaking. The best frypans I have ever used. I will buying the saucepans next. As a cook it has become a joy to use these pans as I am getting hot consistent cooking. I love the long handles and the pans feel great to use.

    MAKO Genius 5 ply Frypans and Essential Pan

    After originally purchasing the Black Steel Steak Pan and the Wok set, their quality changed the way we eat!! Even on a cheap and nasty electric cook top. I decided that we 'needed' to compliment our set with some more MAKO products. The set of 3 x Genius 5 ply Frypans and the Essential pan have performed perfectly. Excellent customer service and the products are beautifully responsibly packaged.
