Starfrit® is always at the forefront of the latest innovations and our cookware incorporates the latest advances. Each item in the specialty line by Starfrit® is made of cast aluminum and has been designed to meet a specific cooking need. Casting is a sophisticated manufacturing process that allows for the strategic variation of the thickness of all parts of the cooking vessel for maximum cooking efficiency. The tapered walls with the extra-thick base ensures rapid and even heat distribution, while protecting the non-stick surface from premature erosion. The thick rim guarantees that the cookware won’t warp, so you can enjoy your cookware for many years.
