The Exceliss® non-stick coating on CRISTEL® frying pans and sauté pans is formed of three layers of non-stick coating, applied on top of a hardened layer of stainless steel particles, which are sprayed onto the product's stainless body while white-hot.
Even if your coating is scratched, you can carry on using it with no risk to your health.
Only the performance of the non-stick coating is affected.
