Calphalon, a leading cookware, bakeware, and cutlery manufacturer, has announced the launch of an all-new cooking line that aims to "reimagine" the capabilities of nonstick. The new line will include cookware items, inlcuding pots and pans of varying sizes, that have been equipped with two new Calphalon technologies: 'MineralShield' and 'AquaShield.'
MineralShield nonstick technology is five times more durable than the brand's Calphalon Classic™ Nonstick and is crafted from some of the earth's toughest minerals. When equipped with MineralShield, these cookware pieces benefit from a three-layer nonstick interior. In addition, they are compatible with the majority of stovetops, including gas, electric, and glass variations.
Meanwhile, AquaShield is a water-based nonstick technology that maintains pan performance 40% longer than Calphalon Classic™ Nonstick.
