PTFE nonstick coatings

PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) is a slippery, tough and non-flammable synthetic material that is used as a nonstick coating on pans. It has been in the market for over 7 decades with a superb record of consumer safety.

PTFE is also known as Fluoropolymer and is often used in conjunction with other chemicals like FEP, PFA and PFOA. PFOA (perfluorooctanoic acid) is a synthetic chemical compound that was previously used as a component of PTFE. However, Circulon TOTAL® nonstick coatings are formulated to be PFOA-free.

Circulon cookware, bakeware, and kitchenware products are engineered for performance, versatility, convenience, and safety. The manufacturer of the nonstick coating on Circulon only uses nonstick technologies to make PTFE nonstick without PFOA.
