If you’ve been paying close attention to developments in the cookware world you may have heard the term ‘Cerastone’ being bandied about and mentioned alongside the Tower brand name. If you haven’t, then let us explain and introduce you to our new, specially developed non-stick coating for our cookware that not only looks the business, but does it too!
For the uninitiated, Cerastone™ is an evolution of our Cerasure™ non-stick coating only this time round, the treatment added to no less than three new Tower cookware ranges is even better and is the first ‘true’ ceramic stone coating in the cookware sector.
Made from four variants of stone, the Cerastone™ composite sits on top of the aluminium of the Tower range and grill-plates of selected Tower electrical cookware products, to prevent food sticking during the cooking process. It also reduces the need for copious amounts of oil to be used – great for those looking to eat healthier – as well as making the products it’s applied to more durable and hard wearing.
The secret is in the stone used in Cerastone™ construction. The stone that makes up the composite (which is deployed as the final layer of the 6 that make up the Cerastone™ technology) is textured so that the food being cooked doesn’t ever come in full contact with the cookware surface.
This lifting of the ingredients in the pan or other Tower product with Cerastone™ prevents sticking meaning that users not only require little or no oil when cooking but that the cookware is easy to clean post-use. The stone-infused layer also enables even heat distribution for more efficient cooking and unlike other non-ceramic coatings found on competitors’ non-stick cookware, is less susceptible to wear and tear after prolonged use.
Whilst the primary purpose of Cerastone™ is to aid cooking efficiency and cleaning, the distinctive coating also looks fantastic, so much so that we’ve found ourselves gawping at the glistening surfaces of our Cerastone™ pans for minutes at a time without even realising that we’re doing it! They’ll look great in your kitchen and thanks to their premium build quality, will stand the test of time, allowing you to produce mouth-watering, precision-cooked meals for years to come.
