Yes. Alva cookware is made without PFAS, PTFE or PFOA. Ceramic nonstick, uncoated stainless steel, carbon steel and enameled cast iron have different cooking surfaces. Check your material and its published reports.

PFAS reports cover a 638-substance panel for the ceramic coatings tested, with results below laboratory reporting limits. Other reports cover materials and food-contact testing. Find your collection’s reports for the samples, methods and results.

Easy release for eggs, delicate fish and everyday meals, with straightforward cleanup. Use low to medium heat, a little oil and gentle utensils to help preserve the surface.

Turn off the heat and let the cookware cool before handling or cleaning. Do not cool a hot pan with cold water. Follow your product’s heat limits, and contact our team if you notice damage.

Published reports show results below the applicable food-contact limits for the samples tested. View your collection’s report for the tested components, methods and results.

Let it cool, then hand wash gently. For ceramic nonstick and enamel, use a soft sponge and mild soap. For carbon steel, avoid soaking, dry promptly and wipe with a little oil. Follow the care guidance on your product page for its material.

Wood, silicone or nylon utensils help protect ceramic nonstick and enamel. Uncoated stainless steel and carbon steel can handle metal utensils; follow the care guidance for your specific piece.

Use low to medium heat for ceramic nonstick to preserve easy release. Carbon steel and uncoated stainless steel suit higher-heat searing when used as directed. Check your product’s care guidance and oven limits, and avoid overheating an empty pan.

Use low to medium heat, a little oil, gentle utensils and hand washing. Nonstick performance changes with use and care; normal coating wear is not a manufacturing defect. See the simple care routine.
