3. Detailed 5-Ply Construction

Outer Layer – Stainless Steel 430 (0.6 mm)

• Material: Ferritic stainless steel (18/0) with ~16–18% chromium.
• Features:
  Rust-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and heat-resistant up to 800–900 °C.
  • Induction-compatible thanks to excellent magnetic properties.
  • Adds a polished, durable exterior finish.

Thermal Core – Total Thickness: 2.5 mm
Made up of 3 aluminum layers:

• Aluminum Core Layer (1.5 mm)
  • 99% pure aluminum for rapid heat conduction and long heat retention.
  • Thermal conductivity ~205 W/m·K at 25 °C for fast heating and energy efficiency.
• Two Intermediate Aluminum Layers (0.5 mm each)
  • Bridge the inner and outer metals, ensuring consistent heat distribution across the entire cooking surface.
  • Minimize thermal expansion differences between steel and aluminum, preventing deformation over time.
  • Eliminate hot spots for evenly cooked food.

Inner Layer – Stainless Steel 304 (0.4 mm)

• Material: Austenitic stainless steel (18/10), composed of chromium and nickel.
• Features:
  • Corrosion- and heat-resistant, non-reactive with acidic foods.
  • Preserves food flavor and nutrition.
  • Polished surface for easy cleaning and lasting shine.
  • Food-safe and ideal for daily cooking.

4. Benefits of Use

Outstanding Cooking Performance

• The 1.5 mm thick aluminum core, combined with two thinner aluminum layers, forms a rapid and even heat conduction system. This ensures food is cooked evenly, enhances flavor, and minimizes burning.
• Maintains stable heat during continuous sautéing or pan-frying, enabling precise temperature control for various dishes like stir-fries, seared meats, and more.

Energy & Time Saving

• Thanks to excellent thermal conductivity, the pan heats up quickly, reducing preheat time and saving electricity or gas.
• Stable temperature retention reduces the need for constant flame adjustments, lowering overall fuel consumption.

Health & Hygiene Safety

• The inner layer of 304 stainless steel is non-reactive with food, preserving natural flavors and ensuring no harmful substances are released during cooking.
• Smooth stainless surface resists food sticking and is easy to clean, keeping the pan looking shiny and spotless after each use.
• The seamless solid base prevents oil and moisture buildup, reducing bacteria growth and maintaining maximum kitchen hygiene.

High Durability & Warp Resistance

• The 5-layer structure uses materials with matching thermal expansion rates to prevent warping over time.
• With a thick 3.5 mm body and seamless solid base, the pan resists deformation even under high heat.
• SUS304 stainless steel handle is securely riveted, impact-resistant, and effectively heat-insulated for safe handling.

Versatile for All Kitchen Environments

• Fully compatible with induction cooktops thanks to its magnetic stainless steel outer layer.
• Also suitable for gas, electric, ceramic, and halogen stovetops — offering flexibility in any kitchen setup.

5. Usage & Care Instructions

• Preheat over medium heat — avoid leaving the pan empty on high heat for extended periods to prolong its lifespan.
• Use oil or butter to coat the pan surface before cooking to minimize food sticking and make cleaning easier.
• After cooking, let the pan cool slightly before washing to avoid thermal shock that could cause warping.
• Clean with warm water and mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive steel pads or hard brushes that could scratch the stainless steel surface.
• Dry completely after washing and store in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup or rust on rivets.
