Two Flemish highschool friends Jan Helskens and Wim De Veirman decided to create healthy non-stick pan alternatives, after they discovered that some non-stick pans can release toxic substances when overheated. 15 years later, they celebrate the succes of GreenPan.
Healthy in several ways
GreenPan is a healthy choice in two ways. Firstly, GreenPan’s non-stick coating is PFAS-free, meaning it doesn’t contain harmful chemicals. Many other non-stick pans unfortunately do contain chemicals that can be released into your food when heated up. What’s the use of cooking healthy food if your pan itself is unhealthy? Secondly, you don’t have to use as much butter or oil in the non-stick pans. So your meals will automatically be less greasy.
GreenPan’s non-stick coating is PFAS-free, meaning it doesn’t contain harmful chemicals. Moreover the non-stick GreenPan pans are very easy to clean, because nothing sticks to the bottom.
Easy peasy
Fiercly scraping the bottom of a pan after cooking… ? We have all been there. But we don’t ever have to burden ourselves with that task again. The non-stick GreenPan pans are very easy to clean, because nothing sticks to the bottom. It’s a simple way to make your life that little bit easier and less frustrating. The secret ingredients to GreenPan’s non-stick layer, are sand and diamond. Those materials are hard and naturally have non-stick qualities. GreenPan constantly keeps improving the non-stick layer and has today the eighth generation of non-stick products in stock.

More than pans
GreenPan offers a whole arsenal of kitchenware for every cooking occasion. They have casseroles, grill pans and woks. They even developed products for specific types of food, such as pancake pans and fish pans. Moreover, all the products have a classy and simple design that will definitely fit the style of every kitchen.
You can’t be green enough
GreenPan tries to be as green as possible during the entire lifespan of the pans. During the production process, the non-stick layers are hardened in an oven over a low temperature to reduce the CO2 emission. All the pans also contain a minimum of 25% of recycled aluminium. During the delivery process, GreenPan uses as little packaging as possible. Nowadays, GreenPan is even launching pans that can be recycled more easily. So the quest to be as green as possible continues.
