OXO Good Grips Nonstick Pro 2-Piece Sheet Pan Set
Skip until OXO discloses nonstick coating composition.
OXO does not specify what nonstick coating is used on these sheet pans. Without disclosure of Teflon-type coating or Teflon-family coating content, PFAS risk cannot be assessed from public information.

The full breakdown
What it's made of and why it matters
OXO Good Grips Nonstick Pro sheet pans are carbon steel cores with an applied nonstick coating of unspecified composition. OXO has not publicly disclosed whether this coating contains Teflon-type coating (Teflon) or alternative fluorinated compounds, or if it is fluorine-free. Carbon steel itself is inert and safe; the hazard profile depends entirely on the coating type, durability, and manufacturing process used.
The brand's record and disclosure
OXO (owned by Groupe SEB) has not published technical data sheets or safety certifications detailing the nonstick coating chemistry for this product line. The brand does not maintain a public PFAS or fluorine-free product directory. No widespread recalls or safety warnings specific to OXO nonstick cookware have been documented in major consumer safety databases, but the absence of transparency limits independent verification of PFAS content.
How it compares in its category
OXO nonstick sheet pans occupy the mid-market segment with moderate durability claims. Competitors offering full transparency include GreenPan (ceramic coatings, Teflon-type coating-free), Our Place (ceramic hybrid), and Caraway (proprietary Teflon-type coating-free formula). Traditional uncoated carbon steel and stainless steel sheet pans eliminate coating longevity and composition concerns entirely but require seasoning and higher skill. OXO's positioning relies on convenience rather than disclosed safety credentials.
If you buy it
Avoid preheating above 400F (204C) empty, as nonstick coating degradation risk rises sharply at higher temperatures. Use silicone or wooden utensils only; metal tools scratch and accelerate coating failure. Hand-wash with mild soap rather than dishwasher, which degrades nonstick coatings faster. If coating visibly flakes, peels, or becomes slick uneven after 2-3 years, replace the pans; continued use of degraded coating may increase exposure to coating particulates.
Beyond PFAS: other things we checked
Established hazard classes for this product type, assessed from public information. These never change the PFAS grade; a Likely flag caps the Verdict at “Buy with care.”
Teflon-type coating fume risk (thermal degradation)
If coating is Teflon-type coating-based, heating above 500F (260C) can release polymer fumes; OXO has not confirmed coating type, making risk assessment incomplete. Consumer adherence to safe temperature use is the primary mitigation.
Coating degradation and particle shedding
All applied nonstick coatings degrade with time and use. As the OXO coating chips or flakes, fragments may be ingested or inhaled; the extent and composition of shed particles cannot be determined without disclosure of coating formula.
Lead or cadmium in coating pigments
No public recalls or test reports have identified lead or cadmium in OXO nonstick cookware coatings. Carbon steel substrate itself is not a source of these metals under normal use.
Aluminum leaching
These pans are carbon steel, not aluminum; aluminum leaching is not a concern for this product.
Coating adhesion and delamination
Online consumer reports document uneven nonstick wear and occasional coating bubbling or peeling after 1-3 years of use. OXO has not published durability benchmarks or warranty terms addressing coating failure.
What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 35% confidence. It is not a lab result.
No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.
The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.
Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
