Teflon® Coatings
 Only DuPont™ Teflon® non-stick is the genuine article. And it’s only found on quality cookware.
Teflon® was invented by DuPont in 1938, so it’s certainly no ‘flash in the pan’. This amazing material has not only revolutionised cookware but improved the performance of many other objects including cutlery, paints, zippers,even spacecraft.
Before any piece of cookware can bear the Teflon® seal, the manufacturer must qualify to be licensed by DuPont. To qualify as a licensee, a manufacturer’s products must pass a series of stringent tests to ensure the best non-stick performance, durability and value.
There are many Teflon® imitations on the market so make sure your cookware carries a genuine DuPont™ Teflon® seal.If it doesn’t say Teflon® then you’re simply not getting Teflon® quality.

A healthy decision.
Genuine DuPont™ Teflon® non-stick surfaces provide virtually fat-free and oil-free cooking and we all know that less fat means less calories and cholesterol. So not only is it easier to cook with Teflon®, it’s healthier too.
