ProClad is advancing titanium hybrid cookware with its Hybrid 2.0 Pan, which combines stainless steel searing performance with a titanium-reinforced ceramic nonstick surface. Its proprietary TitaniumShield system places two ceramic nonstick layers beneath raised stainless steel ridges, protecting the cooking surface from direct utensil contact and wear. A three-ply stainless steel body with a 3 mm aluminum core supports even heating, while the pan is oven safe up to 900°F and compatible with multiple cooktops.
The design addresses consumer demand for cookware that combines durability, easy cleanup and high-heat versatility without requiring separate pans. For ProClad, offering 8-, 10- and 12-inch pans alongside sets and a wok creates opportunities for customers to build coordinated cookware collections. PFAS-free certification and a starting price of $109 can also help position the brand within the premium home-cooking market.
