PFAS-free cookware
Our position on PFAS is clear: it has no place in our range. We believe in coatings you can confidently pass on to your customers.
Facts, not alarmism
PFAS stands for poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances: a large family of synthetic compounds that was the standard in non-stick coatings for decades. They are heat-resistant, water-repellent and long-lasting — and it is precisely that last property that is also the problem: PFAS barely break down in the environment or in the human body.
The European Union is working towards a phased phase-out of this category of substances. For cookware manufacturers and importers, that means a mandatory switch to alternative coatings — a switch Redelaar already made back in 2018. Our entire range has worked with mineral and ceramic coatings ever since, without compromising on cooking performance or service life.
We do not see PFAS-free as a marketing story, but as a purchasing standard. The range you buy from us today meets the requirements the market will demand in the years ahead — and our own conviction that cookware should simply be clean.
