QUESTION 1 / 7
STAINLESS STEEL

YES. Stainless steel sticks
Eggs tear apart, fish stays stuck to the bottom.
You compensate with oil. Every single time you cook.
TITANOX
No. Nothing sticks.
Eggs slide right off, fish comes out whole.
A drizzle of oil is all it takes.
STAINLESS STEEL

YES. Stainless steel sticks
Eggs tear apart, fish stays stuck to the bottom.
You compensate with oil. Every single time you cook.
The
bottom
of
a
stainless
steel
pan
is
perfectly smooth
.
Food
lies
flat
on
it,
touches
the
metal
everywhere,
and
cooks
fused
to
the
metal.
The
oil
you
add
isn't
there
to
cook:
it's
there
to
keep the two apart.
A
titanium
pan
is
made
differently.
Its
surface
is
100% pure hammered titanium
:
the
metal
is
forged
with
texture,
so
it's
not
flat.
Food
no
longer
touches
the
bottom
everywhere,
so it can't stick to it anymore.
Result:
nothing sticks,
a
drizzle
of
oil
is
enough,
and
there's
no
chemical
coating
on
top.
With
stainless
steel,
oil
isn't
a
choice:
it's
the
only
way
out.
QUESTION 2 / 7
STAINLESS STEEL

Yes. Everything depends on the temperature.
Not hot enough: it sticks.
Too hot: it burns, and you're left scraping.
TITANOX

No. You place it, you cook.
No preheating to watch over.
The same result, every single day.

QUESTION 3 / 7
STAINLESS STEEL

A lot. And every single time you cook.
Without oil, food sticks to the bottom.
Your meals end up greasier, with no say in the matter.
TITANOX

A drizzle.
Oil isn't there to unstick anymore — it's there to cook.
The same meals, lighter.
STAINLESS STEEL

A lot. And every single time you cook.
Without oil, food sticks to the bottom.
Your meals end up greasier, with no say in the matter.
On
a
stainless
steel
pan,
oil
isn't
there
to
add
flavor.
It's
there
to
stop food from sticking
to
the
bottom.
That's
why
it
takes
so
much,
and
why
you
need
it
every
single
time.
On
a
titanium
pan,
the
metal
already
does
that
job.
Pure
hammered
titanium
keeps
food
lifted
off
the
bottom,
with no oil needed for that.
Result:
you
add
oil
whenever you feel like it,
not
because
you
have
to.
Your
meals
are
the
same,
just
lighter.
There are four questions left, and they're the toughest ones. If you already have your answer, the offer is at the bottom of the page.
QUESTION 4 / 7
STAINLESS STEEL

The bottom stays stained after cooking.
You have to soak it, then scrub.
Dinner's over, and you're still at the sink.
TITANOX
A sponge, some water, done.
Nothing cooked onto the bottom, so nothing's left behind.
It's dishwasher-safe too.
STAINLESS STEEL

The bottom stays stained after cooking.
You have to soak it, then scrub.
Dinner's over, and you're still at the sink.
Cleaning
gets
decided
while you're cooking,
not
after.
Whatever
stuck
had
time
to
cook
onto
the
bottom.
By
the
time
you're
at
the
sink,
it's
too
late:
you
have
to
soak
it,
then
scrub.
In
a
titanium
pan,
nothing
stuck
while
cooking.
So
there's
nothing to scrape off
once
dinner's
done.
Result:
a
sponge,
some
water,
done.
And
since
there's
no
coating
on
it,
you
can
scrub
without
damaging
anything.
QUESTION 5 / 7
STAINLESS STEEL & NON-STICK

No. But stainless steel isn't non-stick.
To avoid sticking, the only other option you're given is a coated pan.
You're trading sticking for a chemical layer.
TITANOX
No coating at all.
No PFAS, no PTFE, no PFOA.
The non-stick effect comes from the hammered titanium itself, not an added layer.
STAINLESS STEEL

No. But stainless steel isn't non-stick.
To avoid sticking, the only other option you're given is a coated pan.
You're trading sticking for a chemical layer.
Until
now,
you
only
had
two
options.
Stainless
steel,
safe
but
it sticks.
Or
non-stick,
convenient
but
covered
in
a
chemical layer
that
wears
down
a
little
more
with
every
use.
A
titanium
pan
doesn't
make
you
choose.
What
you
cook
on
is
the metal itself
:
100%
pure
hammered
titanium.
There's
nothing
added
on
top.
Result:
it
doesn't
stick,
and
there's
no PFAS,
no PTFE, no PFOA.
Neither
stainless
steel
nor
non-stick
can
give
you
both
at
once.
QUESTION 6 / 7
STAINLESS STEEL & NON-STICK

Stainless steel doesn't flake. But it sticks just as much as ever.
A coated pan scratches, then peels.
Whatever comes off the pan ends up on your plate.
TITANOX
No coating, so there's nothing that can flake.
You cook on the metal itself, not a layer sitting on top of it.
A year from now, it'll be exactly the same as today.
INOX

Stainless steel doesn't flake. But it sticks just as much as ever.
A coated pan scratches, then peels.
Whatever comes off the pan ends up on your plate.
A
coating
flakes
because
it's
glued on top of
the metal.
Two
different
materials,
one
on
top
of
the
other,
will
always
end
up
separating.
It's
just
a
matter
of
time.
In
a
titanium
pan,
there's
only one material:
pure
titanium,
hammered
through
and
through.
Nothing
was
added,
so
nothing
can
come
off.
Result:
nothing that flakes,
nothing on your plate.
Stainless
steel
doesn't
flake
either,
that's
true.
But
it
sticks
just
as
much
as
ever.
QUESTION 7 / 7
STAINLESS STEEL & NON-STICK

Stainless steel lasts. But it asks the same of you every single day.
A non-stick pan gets tossed the moment the coating gives out.
A cheap pan rebought three times costs more than one good one.
TITANOX

100% pure titanium, guaranteed for life.
Nothing fragile to baby.
You buy it once.
STAINLESS

Stainless steel lasts. But it asks the same of you every single day.
A non-stick pan gets tossed the moment the coating gives out.
A cheap pan rebought three times costs more than one good one.
A
pan
doesn't
cost
what
is
written
on
the
label.
It
actually
costs
that price times the number of times you
buy it again
.
That's
exactly
where
non-stick
gets
expensive,
even
when
bought
cheap.
The
titanium
pan
is
made
of
100% pure titanium
.
There
is
no
added
layer
that
can
wear
out,
nothing
that
scratches
off,
nothing
that
flakes
away.
And
it
is
guaranteed for life,
no conditions
:
if
it
shows
an
abnormal
defect,
it
gets
replaced.
Result:
you buy it once
.
Stainless
steel
can
last
too,
nobody
says
otherwise.
But
you
keep
with
it
everything
it
demands
from
you
every
single
night.

I don't scrub anymore.
I had stainless steel for twelve years. Fish was a lost cause before I even started: it stuck to the bottom and I'd spend ten minutes scrubbing. Now I lay the filet down, it slides right off, and the pan rinses clean in three seconds. Sounds silly, but it changed my weeknights.

A third of the oil I used to use.
With my old pan I used to drown everything in olive oil just to keep it from sticking. Now I use a drizzle because I like the taste, not because I'm forced to. My meals are lighter and I don't have to babysit anything.

Non-stick without the coating.
I'd been looking for a pan that doesn't stick without a chemical layer on it for a long time. I was skeptical. It's 100% pure hammered titanium, nothing added on top, and yet nothing sticks. I didn't think that was possible.

No more guessing the right temperature.
With stainless steel, I always had to calculate. Not hot enough, it stuck. Too hot, it burned. I ruined one out of every three meals. With this one, I just place it and cook, without thinking twice. That's the ease I was looking for.

★★★★★
My potatoes actually come loose.
That's what surprised me most. Before, my sautéed potatoes would end up fused to the bottom and I'd leave the pan soaking overnight. Now I flip them with a spatula and nothing's left behind.

I sold my stainless steel pan.
My stainless steel pan was solid, I won't say otherwise. But I had to manage the temperature, add oil, then scrub afterward. Titanium keeps the indestructible part and removes everything else. I won't be buying another one.
