Matfer Bourgeat Classe Chef Non-Stick Frying Pan 360mm

The Matfer Bourgeat Classe Chef is a professional non-stick frying pan built for everyday use in commercial kitchens. Constructed with an aluminium core bonded with stainless steel, it combines the heat conductivity needed for responsive cooking with the durability expected in a busy service environment. The non-stick coating is applied in four layers, which provides a meaningfully longer service life than single or double-coat alternatives — a practical consideration when pans are in constant rotation across multiple services.

In a working kitchen, non-stick coating longevity depends heavily on build quality. The four-coat construction here holds up better against the kind of thermal cycling and daily cleaning that wears through lighter-built cookware far sooner. At 360mm, this is a larger-format pan suited to sautéing portions, cooking proteins to order, or handling batches that would overcrowd a smaller pan — useful in à la carte operations where speed and presentation both matter.

Practical advantages for kitchen teams include:

• Four-layer non-stick coating for extended working life under heavy use
• Stainless steel and aluminium construction for even, responsive heat distribution
• Larger cooking surface reduces the need to work in multiple batches
• Suitable for gas and electric hobs commonly found in commercial kitchens
• Smooth non-stick surface supports faster cleaning between services

It is worth noting that non-stick cookware of any specification requires proper care — avoid metal utensils and abrasive cleaning methods to preserve the coating. For very high-volume operations running pans continuously across long services, a heavier-duty carbon steel or cast option may prove more cost-effective over time.

This pan is well suited to smaller restaurants, café kitchens, and operations where a reliable non-stick surface is needed for eggs, fish, and delicate proteins. If you are equipping a larger brigade or need guidance on matching pan sizes to your menu, our team is happy to talk it through.
