Where these two actually differ
- We flag Silicone monomer/oligomer leaching, Thermal degradation and off-gassing and Mold or bacterial growth in cracks or crevices on the GreenPan and not on the Our Place.
- We flag Microplastic generation and Bacterial colonization on the Our Place and not on the GreenPan.
- The GreenPan is silicone kitchen tools where the Our Place is Silicone utensils, no coating, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- The gap is 25 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Our Place 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 →
