Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Ceramic coating degradation and particle ingestion, Thermal decomposition of coating at high temperature and Coating adhesion loss over time on the GreenPan and not on the GreenPan.
  • We flag Ceramic coating degradation and substrate exposure and Aluminum leaching from substrate on the GreenPan and not on the GreenPan.
  • The GreenPan is Ceramic non-stick coating (proprietary GreenPan Thermolon) where the GreenPan is Ceramic nonstick coating (proprietary blend), which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • These two are level, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.

Both products run through the same public rubric, which covers materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
