The Steel core of this saucepan is extremely durable and the Porcelain Enamel coating increases the preservation of the Steel and prevents leaching, although it can crack, chip, fade and wear overtime and with harsh treatment, which has slightly decreased this products Durability Rating.
The Walnut handle is FSC Certified with every part of the process of milling the timber has been checked along the way to ensure it’s been done is a responsible way. This has slightly increased this products overall Material Eco Rating, although the process of creating the Porcelain Enamel coating on the Steel creates toxic chemicals, yet in recent years new methods have been created to recycle these byproducts. The negative impact of the process of mining the Alloy and other minerals to create the Steel is outweighed by its durability and recyclability, as the materials never go to waste, once produced.
