Only Circulon could make ceramic this tough. From America’s #1 premium nonstick cookware brand comes Circulon Halo with LaserDefense ceramic nonstick, a revolutionary nonstick surface engineered for endurance and made without PFAS, BPA, lead, or cadmium*. When it comes to resisting chips, cracks, flakes, abrasions, and stains, Halo is 6x more stain resistant, 9x more scratch resistant, and has 50% longer-lasting nonstick release than the ceramic nonstick competition**. Created to withstand extreme cooking conditions from high heat and hot oil to burnt-on food and metal utensils, our unique LaserDefense nonstick features a tough, heat-conductive aluminum core that is laser-etched with a circular pattern of raised microscopic dots to strengthen its ceramic nonstick surface. This fusion of laser technology and Circulon’s signature circular pattern delivers exceptional durability and effortless food release that truly stands up to everyday use. This 12-inch Circulon Halo frying pan features thick aluminum construction for fast, even heating, flush rivets for effortless stirring and cleanup, and a silicone-rimmed glass lid that locks in steam and flavor. A helper handle on this skillet offers extra comfort and control. It’s oven-safe to 500 F (350 F for lid), dishwasher-safe, and induction compatible. And with a statement-making monochromatic finish, Circulon Halo is proof that high-performance nonstick cookware doesn’t have to blend in. *Product design does not involve intentionally adding to the interior coating these materials, which may otherwise be present in the environment. **Than leading competitor ceramic nonstick in a food release test performed at 220 degrees C/430 degrees F, and leading competitor ceramic nonstick in staining and metal utensil tests performed at 200 degrees C/390 degrees F.
