Know before you buy
Yes, the STRATANIUM+ coating is designed to be metal-utensil safe, allowing you to use spatulas and whisks without damaging the surface.
Yes, the five-ply stainless-steel construction is fully compatible with all stovetops, including induction, gas, electric, and ceramic.
The Scanpan HAPTIQ saute pan is oven-safe up to 500°F, making it suitable for finishing dishes or keeping food warm.
While the pan is dishwasher safe, we recommend hand-washing to preserve the mirror-polished stainless-steel exterior and ensure the longest possible lifespan for the nonstick coating.
STRATANIUM+ features a unique microtextured surface that provides superior searing capabilities compared to traditional smooth nonstick coatings, while offering increased durability and release performance.
Beyond hand-washing, we recommend using medium heat settings for most cooking tasks. Because of the pan's excellent heat retention and conductivity, high heat is rarely necessary and can shorten the life of any nonstick coating.
