Where these two actually differ
- We flag Coating degradation and integrity loss, Aluminum leaching and Microparticle shedding from coating on the GreenPan and not on the T-fal.
- We flag PTFE thermal decomposition fumes (PTFE fume risk), Nonstick coating degradation and microparticle release, Aluminum core leaching and Undisclosed nonstick chemistry (PFAS or alternatives) on the T-fal and not on the GreenPan.
- The gap is 85 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the GreenPan is the one to buy.
Both products run through the same public rubric: 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 →
