Coating

OBSIDIAN SHELL®: non-stick up to 450 °C. Without PFAS.

OBSIDIAN SHELL® is a non-stick coating developed and patented at acs, on a purely mineral basis. It is applied in several layers without solvents, contains neither PTFE nor PFOA nor any other PFAS, and withstands temperatures of up to 450 °C for short periods – a temperature no pan ever reaches in everyday use.

The result is a long-lasting non-stick effect: hard, robust, dishwasher-safe and free of substances that outgas when heated.

Culinary art meets physics

"While most cookware comes from China, these pans are produced in Wilhelmshaven. That's quality I can rely on 100 percent."

Juan Amador, three-star chef, in Finesse Gourmet

Juan Amador uses only his own HIFFICIENCY® pans at his restaurant in Vienna – developed together with physicist Dr. Christoph Stecher. And WDR food expert Helmut Gote confirms after six months of daily use: the pan still looks like new.
