WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT

This is the pan that earns its place on the stove every single day. Sear, braise, boil, fry, roast, slow cook. Your new go-to, from the very first cook.

5-ply Genius Copper: The gold standard of cookware.

The technology.

Five bonded layers of stainless, aluminium and copper for heat that's fast, even and consistent across the entire pan. No hot spots. No heat drop. Lined with the highest quality non-stick on the market. Lasts 8x longer than regular non-stick, won't chip or flake, and food glides off with ease. Nothing sticks.

The result.

Most pans run hot in spots, and most non-stick coatings that promise easy cooking don't deliver. The Essential Pan eliminates all of that. Unmatched versatility, effortless cooking. With the added confidence of a premium non-stick surface that actually lasts.

Built Different. Performs Different.

  • Non-stick that actually works: Genius Plasma coating lasts 8x longer than traditional non-stick. No chipping, no flaking, food glides off every time.
  • Cook with confidence: Free from PFOA, lead and cadmium. Safe, clean and built for everyday cooking.
  • Cooktop to 260°C oven safe: Start on the cooktop, finish in the oven, serve straight from the pan.
  • Lighter than cast iron: All the performance of a dutch oven, without the weight.
  • Easy to clean: Dishwasher safe. Hand washing recommended to extend the life of your non-stick coating.

What You Can Actually Cook

Not just one thing. Everything.

  • Perfectly golden eggs, flipped without fuss
  • Crispy-skinned salmon, lifted clean every time
  • Rich beef stew with a deep caramelised crust
  • Oven baked breads and pastries with a perfect release
  • Curries, stews and soups for the whole family
  • Shakshuka, risotto, stir fries. Weeknight to dinner party.

This is your everyday non-stick pan, performing at a whole different level.
