Bringing kitchens to life
MANILA, Philippines - The recent Neoflamwith Ecolon coating launch organized by SM Homeworld and Noble Houseware Marketing Corporation showed just how innovations in cookware can bring kitchens to life with healthy and environmentally friendly cooking.]But new ideas always bring about a new understanding. And here are — in layman’s terms — just how Neoflam Ecolon coating brings kitchens to life.
What makes Neoflam with Ecolon coating special?
Ecolon, Neoflam’sproprietary non-stick coating is made from ceramic that is completely PTFE and PFOA free. Because it is made from natural, non-toxic materials, it is safe for the human body and is environmentally friendly.
What are PTFE and PFOA?
PTFE which is also known as Teflon can be dangerous for cooking as its chemical properties will degrade above 260ºC and decompose above 350ºC which can start releasing harmful chemicals. PFOA, on the other hand, is considered to be a suggested carcinogen by US EPA, which has started to phase out the use of this material by 2011.
What are the features of Neoflam with Ecolon coating?
Neoflam is die-cast, which has a wide range of design options, which differentiates the product in the market and incorporates designs that make the product look classy. Its flexible design allows for different wall and bottom thickness for a lighter cookware with good heat transfer.
Neoflam cookware with Ecolon coating can be used for gas, electric, ceramic, and halogen stoves; and are refrigerator, oven, and dishwasher safe.
How is it safe for the environment and one’s health?
Neoflam cookware is eco-friendly, because as mentioned earlier, it does not use any PTFE or PFOA, which have been known almost never degrading once present in the environment. Also, the ceramic coating requires half the energy to apply the coating on the cookware reducing CO2 emissions by half during the manufacturing process.
Can you cook on Neoflam cookware without any oil or butter?
Yes, that’s why cooking on Neoflamis so healthy. Butter or oil can be added to flavor the food while cooking, but it is not necessary to prevent the sticking of the food to the cookware.
How do you care for your Neoflam cookware?
Although it is very rare for the Neoflamsurface to be stained, when you see staining occur, you can remove it by using a gentle scrubber and dishwashing detergent. If the stain still does not come out, add some water and detergent into the cookware and let is boil until the stain is removed.
Although it is not a requirement, we recommend to season a new Neoflampan with a little bit of oil as it can enhance the non stick properties as well as protect the coating surface. Seasoning is also recommended when Neoflamcookware has been washed in the dishwasher.
