Full details
The Greenpan Essence 28cm Sauté Pan is designed for home cooks who need a versatile, reliable vessel for searing, sautéing, and stewing family-sized meals. Its primary benefit is the diamond-reinforced, PFAS-free Thermolon ceramic coating, which offers superior food release and requires less oil for healthier cooking, though users should be mindful of the 160°C oven temperature limit to preserve the coating and handle integrity.

FAQs
Is the Greenpan Essence pan truly PFAS-free?
Yes, all products in the Essence collection feature the Thermolon ceramic non-stick coating, which is manufactured without the use of PFAS, PFOA, lead, or cadmium.
Can I use metal utensils with this pan?
It is highly recommended to use silicone, nylon, or wooden utensils to prevent scratching and ensure the longevity of the ceramic non-stick coating.
How should I store this pan?
To prevent scratching, avoid stacking other pans directly on top of the non-stick surface. If you must stack them, use a pan protector or a soft cloth between them.
Can I put the pan in the dishwasher?
Yes, the pan is dishwasher-safe, though hand washing is recommended to preserve the performance of the non-stick coating over the long term.
Is the handle oven-safe?
The pan is oven-safe up to 160°C. Please do not exceed this temperature as the handle and coating are not rated for higher heat.
What is the capacity of the 28cm Sauté Pan?
This model has a generous 4.25-litre capacity, making it perfect for family-sized meals and one-pot cooking.
Troubleshooting
Food is sticking to the pan
Ensure you are using low to medium heat. Overheating can cause food to carbonize and stick. Also, ensure the pan is cleaned thoroughly to remove any invisible oil residue buildup.
Pan wobbles on the stovetop
Ensure the burner size matches the pan's base diameter. If the pan was exposed to thermal shock, check for warping and allow it to cool naturally before the next use.
Discoloration on the ceramic surface
Regularly clean the pan with a soft sponge and warm soapy water. Avoid using abrasive scouring pads or harsh chemicals that can damage the ceramic layer.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- PFAS-free non-stick surface
- Suitable for all hob types including induction

Cons
- Oven safe only up to 160°C

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before your first use, wash the pan in warm, soapy water and dry it thoroughly. While the pan is dishwasher-safe, hand washing with a soft sponge and mild detergent is highly recommended to extend the life of the non-stick coating.
Compatibility is broad: the pan works on induction, gas, electric, and ceramic hobs. When placing the pan in the oven, ensure the temperature does not exceed 160°C, as the phenolic handle and non-stick coating are not designed for extreme heat exposure. Always avoid thermal shock—do not place a hot pan directly under cold running water—and never use the pan in a microwave or on an outdoor BBQ grill.
