Ozeri Professional Series Induction Pan in Black Onyx is exclusively made in the province of Brescia in northern Italy. Developed with the uncompromising goal of the safest and healthiest cooking, the Ozeri Induction Pan exceeds all European Union guidelines for safe cooking, and is absolutely free of APEO and PFOA, and the lesser known chemicals NMP and NEP. Conventional pans often achieve their non-stick performance with the aid of PFOA (PerFluoroOctanoic Acid), a potential carcinogen which the EPA has classified as a 'persistent pollutant of the environment', and APEO (Alkylphenol ethoxylates), which are under restricted use in Germany due to environmental concerns about their poor biodegradability and toxicity.
