Calphalon Signature Cookware
Calphalon Signature is one of the top collections from the Calphalon brand, which has been producing high-quality cookware since the 1960s. The Signature collection features both non-stick and stainless steel options, with the non-stick range made from heavy-gauge hard-anodized aluminum and the stainless steel range featuring a 5-ply construction with a triple-layer aluminium core.
The non-stick range is notable for its 3-layer non-stick coating, which is designed to make the cookware more durable, scratch-resistant, and longer-lasting. The non-stick coating is also PFOA-free and metal utensil-safe. The stainless steel range, meanwhile, is fully-clad, with bonded layers of stainless steel on the exterior and aluminium at the core.
Both the non-stick and stainless steel options in the Calphalon Signature collection include tempered glass lids, which are shatterproof and allow you to monitor the food as it cooks. The handles are designed to stay cool during stovetop use, and the cookware is oven-safe, with the non-stick range oven-safe up to 450°F and the stainless steel range oven-safe up to 500°F.
The Calphalon Signature collection is a high-end option, with prices to match. However, the durability and longevity of the cookware mean it is built to last, and the collection comes with a lifetime warranty.
To identify Calphalon Signature cookware, you can look for the label on the underside of the pot or pan, which will list the cookware line as 'Signature'. You can also look for the Calphalon logo—a stylized 'C'—printed on an aluminium-coloured plate on the underside of the item, or as a quasi-circular imprint on the handle.
