Frying Pans

The Pujadas Hercules is a professional aluminium fry pan built for daily use in commercial kitchens. The 240mm diameter makes it a practical size for individual portions and smaller-batch cooking, and the pan is compatible with gas, electric, and vitroceramic hobs. The aluminium construction keeps the pan light to handle during busy service, while the 4mm base thickness provides enough mass to distribute heat evenly and reduce hot spots.

The multi-layer non-stick coating is applied professionally and is PFOA-free. It is designed to hold up under regular commercial use rather than the lighter demands of a domestic kitchen. The coating resists abrasion well and makes for straightforward cleaning between covers — a practical consideration when turnaround time matters. The Hercules handle is fabricated from flat iron and finished with an epoxy coating that resists heat transfer, making it more comfortable and safer to use during extended service periods.

Key practical points for kitchen operators:

• PFOA-free multi-layer non-stick coating suited to heavy daily use
• 4mm aluminium base for even heat distribution across the pan
• Compatible with gas, electric, and vitroceramic cooking surfaces
• Epoxy-coated iron handle resists heat and is built for intensive use
• Lightweight construction reduces fatigue during high-volume service

It is worth noting that this pan has a plain base and is not induction-compatible, so it should not be specified for induction hob installations. The 240mm size suits single-portion work well; kitchens regularly cooking larger batches or requiring induction compatibility should consider an alternative from the range.

The Hercules pan is well suited to restaurants, cafés, hotel kitchens, and contract catering operations looking for a reliable, easy-to-maintain fry pan at a sensible price point. If you are equipping a new kitchen or replacing several pans at once and want to confirm the right size and quantity for your setup, the team is happy to help.

The Pujadas Black Pro fry pan is a 200mm cast aluminium pan with a non-stick coating and induction-compatible base, designed for everyday use in professional kitchen environments. At this diameter it sits in the smaller end of the standard pan range, making it well suited to single portions, garnishes, egg work, and smaller sauté tasks rather than batch cooking.

Cast aluminium construction gives this pan reasonably even heat distribution across the base, which helps with controlled cooking on both induction and conventional hobs. The non-stick surface supports clean food release for delicate items — eggs, fish portions, pan sauces — and reduces the time spent on cleaning between services.

• Non-stick surface supports clean release for eggs, fish, and pan sauces
• Induction-compatible base suits modern range configurations
• Cast aluminium body provides even heat spread across the cooking surface
• Compact 200mm diameter handles individual portions and à la carte service
• Straightforward to clean between covers

As with any non-stick pan used in a busy kitchen, longevity depends on how the pan is handled — metal utensils and abrasive cleaning will shorten the life of the coating. This is a practical, mid-range professional pan rather than a heavy-gauge induction workhorse, and it is worth setting expectations accordingly for high-frequency, high-heat applications.

This pan is well suited to smaller professional kitchens, café operations, and à la carte environments where portion-level cooking is the norm. Operators running a high volume of covers across multiple pans simultaneously may want to consider heavier-gauge options for greater durability under sustained use.

If you are building out a cookware set or unsure which pan sizes best match your menu, our team is happy to talk it through with you.

The De Buyer Choc Resto is a professional non-stick frying pan built for regular commercial kitchen use. Constructed from heavy-gauge aluminium with a forged induction-compatible base, it is designed to distribute heat evenly and consistently across the cooking surface — reducing hot spots and giving cooks reliable control over delicate proteins, eggs, and pan sauces.

The five-layer PTFE non-stick coating is applied to a thickness that gives it meaningful resistance to the abrasion and thermal stress that come with daily professional use. In practice, this matters: cheaper non-stick pans in busy kitchens tend to degrade quickly under repeated high-heat cooking and metal utensil contact. The Choc Resto is a more considered choice for operations that go through pans regularly and want something that holds up over a longer service life.

Key practical points for kitchen teams:

• Compatible with induction, gas, electric, and ceramic hobs
• Riveted steel handle allows short oven use where finishing dishes requires it
• Five-layer PTFE coating offers good abrasion resistance under regular service
• Even heat distribution supports consistent results across the full pan surface
• Heavyweight aluminium construction reduces warping over time

This is a 28cm pan, which suits single-portion work and small-batch cooking comfortably. It is well suited to à la carte kitchens, hotel breakfast operations, and prep environments where non-stick performance and heat control are priorities. For high-volume operations cycling through large quantities of product simultaneously, a larger pan or additional units may be worth considering.

If you are building out a pan kit for a new kitchen or replacing ageing non-stick stock, it is worth talking through your hob types and service volumes before committing — we are happy to help you work out the right specification.

The De Buyer Mineral B is a traditional black iron frying pan made from 99% iron with a small amount of carbon, finished with a natural beeswax coating to protect the surface prior to first use. It is a straightforward, no-frills pan built around a material that professional cooks have relied on for generations — iron that heats quickly, holds temperature well, and improves with use as a natural seasoning builds up over time.

In a busy kitchen environment, black iron pans like this earn their place through consistency. The pan responds quickly to changes in heat, which suits sautéing, searing, and finishing work where control matters. Unlike coated non-stick pans, the cooking surface becomes progressively more effective the more it is used — provided it is maintained correctly. It handles high-heat applications that would degrade synthetic coatings, and it is fully compatible with induction hobs as well as gas and electric ranges.

Practical advantages for kitchen operators include:

• Natural seasoning develops over time, improving release without chemical coatings
• Suitable for induction, gas, electric, and solid-top ranges
• Withstands high cooking temperatures without surface degradation
• No synthetic coatings to chip, flake, or replace
• Lightweight relative to cast iron, reducing fatigue during service

Iron pans do require some ongoing care — they should not be soaked in water or put through a dishwasher, and they need to be dried promptly and lightly oiled after washing to prevent rust. This is standard practice for any iron cookware and is quickly built into kitchen routine. The 260mm diameter makes it a practical all-round size for single-portion work and smaller batch cooking.

This pan suits professional kitchens where cooks are comfortable working with natural iron cookware and where longevity matters more than the convenience of a disposable non-stick surface. It is well suited to restaurants, hotels, and catering operations that prioritise cooking performance over low-maintenance alternatives. For kitchens needing a larger cooking surface or higher-volume throughput, larger sizes within the Mineral B range are available.

If you are unsure whether iron cookware is the right fit for your kitchen setup or your hob type, we are happy to talk it through before you order.

The Pujadas Hercules is a professional-grade aluminium frying pan designed for daily use in commercial kitchens. The 320mm diameter makes it a practical all-round size — large enough for portions that matter in a service environment, without being unwieldy on a busy range. The aluminium construction keeps the pan responsive to heat changes, which matters when you need consistent results across multiple covers.

The multi-layer non-stick coating is applied professionally rather than as an afterthought, and the PFOA-free formulation is well suited to kitchens with food safety and allergen compliance concerns. The 4mm base thickness gives the pan enough mass to distribute heat evenly without the excessive weight that slows service. It performs well on gas, electric, and vitroceramic hobs, which makes it a flexible choice where hob types vary across sites.

The Hercules handle is made from flat iron with an epoxy heat-resistant coating — a traditional construction that holds up well under intensive use and repeated high-temperature cycles. It is a practical, unfussy design built around durability rather than aesthetics.

• Non-stick surface reduces food adhesion and speeds up cleaning between services
• PFOA-free coating suitable for allergen-aware kitchen environments
• Flat iron handle with epoxy coating resists heat during sustained cooking periods
• Compatible with gas, electric, and vitroceramic hobs
• Plain base suits slow cooking and even heat distribution tasks

This pan is well suited to cafés, bistros, hotel kitchens, and contract catering operations looking for a reliable everyday frying pan. For very high-volume operations running continuous service, a heavier-gauge or larger-diameter option may be worth considering alongside this model.

If you are equipping a kitchen and want to talk through pan sizes, quantities, or suitability for your hob setup, the team is happy to help.

The Hygiplas Platinum Plus is a 28cm aluminium frying pan with a Teflon non-stick coating, designed for everyday use in professional kitchens. The purple handle is part of a colour-coded system, which allows kitchen teams to designate specific pans for allergen-sensitive cooking and reduce the risk of cross-contamination between ingredients.

In a busy kitchen environment, a reliable non-stick surface makes a practical difference. It allows food to release cleanly, supports lower oil usage, and speeds up the cleaning process between services. The pan is intended for hand washing rather than machine washing, which helps preserve the coating over time.

• Colour-coded purple handle supports allergen management protocols
• Non-stick coating reduces oil use and aids food release
• Hanging hook on handle makes storage and retrieval straightforward
• Aluminium construction keeps the pan light and easy to handle during service
• Suitable for everyday prep and service across a range of cooking tasks

This pan is designed for gas and electric hob use in a standard commercial kitchen. It is worth noting that aluminium non-stick pans of this type are not suitable for induction hobs unless you have a separate induction converter plate. They are also not intended for oven use or heavy-duty searing at very high temperatures, where a stainless or cast iron pan would be more appropriate.

This pan suits catering operations that need a dependable, lightweight non-stick option for day-to-day cooking tasks — particularly where colour-coded allergen controls are already in place. For very high-volume sites turning out large quantities continuously, a heavier-gauge pan may offer better longevity under sustained use.

If you are building out a full set of colour-coded cookware or have questions about allergen management in your kitchen setup, our team is happy to help you work through the right approach.

This 320mm aluminium frying pan from Vogue uses a Teflon Platinum Plus non-stick coating and is compatible with induction hobs as well as conventional gas and electric ranges. At 1.6kg it sits in a practical middle ground — substantial enough to retain heat during service without becoming unwieldy during continuous use.

In a working kitchen environment, the Teflon Platinum Plus coating performs well across a broad range of cooking tasks, from sautéing vegetables and finishing proteins to eggs and delicate fish. The coating reduces the need for excessive oil and simplifies pan cleaning between covers, which matters when the same pan may be used repeatedly across a full service. Aluminium construction helps the pan heat quickly and respond well to temperature adjustments, which is useful on busy sections where cooks need to move fast.

Practical points worth noting for kitchen use:

• Induction-compatible base suitable for modern induction ranges
• Teflon Platinum Plus coating requires no seasoning before first use
• Hanging hole on handle allows hook storage, keeping the pan accessible without stacking
• Lightweight aluminium construction reduces fatigue during extended service periods
• Straightforward to clean, supporting fast turnaround between uses

As with any non-stick pan in a commercial environment, care should be taken to avoid metal utensils and very high dry heat, both of which will shorten coating life. This pan is best suited to kitchens where non-stick performance and ease of cleaning are the priority rather than high-heat searing work, for which a stainless or cast-iron pan would typically be more appropriate.

The 320mm diameter suits most à la carte and café operations. For sites running very high covers or needing a larger cooking surface, a bigger or heavier-gauge alternative may serve better. If you are fitting out a section or unsure which pan sizes and quantities suit your service style, the team is happy to help you think it through.

The Pujadas Tribute frying pan is a professional-grade sauté and frying pan designed for daily commercial kitchen use. The 200mm diameter makes it a practical single-portion size, commonly used for egg dishes, sauces, fish portions, and small sauté work. It is built around a multi-metal, three-ply construction that promotes even heat distribution across the base and up into the lower sidewalls — reducing the risk of hot spots that can cause uneven cooking or sticking.

In a working kitchen environment, the CeramiGuard II non-stick surface offers reliable food release and straightforward cleaning between services. Non-stick surfaces in commercial use do require some care — metal utensils should be avoided, and pans should be hand-washed rather than machine-washed to preserve the coating over time. Treated correctly, the Tribute holds up well under the repetitive use typical of a busy pass or breakfast service.

The pan is induction-compatible, which suits kitchens running portable induction hobs or fixed induction ranges. It will also perform on gas and solid-top ranges. Key practical points include:

• Three-ply multi-metal construction for consistent heat distribution
• CeramiGuard II non-stick coating for reliable food release and easy cleaning
• Induction-compatible base suitable for most commercial hob types
• Ergonomic handle designed to stay cooler during service
• Rivet fixings secured by the Ever-Tite system, backed by a limited lifetime warranty

At 200mm, this pan is best suited to à la carte or small-batch cooking rather than high-volume production. Kitchens producing larger quantities per order would typically supplement with larger diameter pans from the same range. It fits well into a brigade where line cooks need a reliable, lightweight pan for individual portions throughout service.

If you are building out a cookware set or want to discuss which sizes would suit your menu and hob configuration, our team is happy to help.

The Vogue 20cm ceramic-coated aluminium frying pan is a compact, general-purpose frying pan designed for light commercial kitchens, catering operations, and back-of-house prep work. The ceramic coating provides a non-stick cooking surface without the use of traditional PTFE-based coatings, which some operators prefer for health, cleaning, or policy reasons.

In a kitchen environment, this pan is well suited to cooking eggs, pancakes, light sautéing, and finishing smaller portions. The 20cm diameter makes it a practical size for single-portion work or prep tasks where a full-sized pan would be impractical. The aluminium construction heats quickly and evenly, which helps with consistent results during service.

From an operational standpoint, the ceramic surface offers a few practical advantages:

• Food releases cleanly, reducing waste and simplifying plate presentation
• Clean-down after service is straightforward — less residue, less scrubbing
• The ceramic coating avoids the concerns some kitchens have around traditional non-stick surfaces
• The extended handle keeps hands at a safe working distance during frying

It is worth being straightforward about the limitations. Ceramic coatings, while practical, require more care than stainless steel — abrasive cleaning tools and metal utensils will degrade the surface over time. This pan is suitable for light to moderate use; kitchens running continuous high-volume service or very high heat work may find a heavier-duty pan more appropriate for their needs.

This pan is a sensible choice for small catering operations, pop-ups, staff canteens, or as a supplementary pan in larger kitchens. If you are equipping a full section or need guidance on the right pan sizes and materials for your specific service style, the team is happy to help you think it through.

This is a 200mm stainless steel frying pan from Vogue's professional cookware range, constructed from 18/10 stainless steel and compatible with induction hobs. It is a straightforward, general-purpose pan designed to handle the day-to-day demands of a working kitchen.

In a commercial setting, a pan of this size suits single-portion work — eggs, small omelettes, sautéed garnishes, or individual protein portions. The welded stay-cool handle provides a secure, practical grip during service, and the 18/10 stainless steel construction is resistant to corrosion and holds up well to regular use and repeated washing. At 800g, it sits in a practical weight range — substantial enough to retain heat without being tiring to handle through a busy service.

Key operational points worth noting:

• Induction-compatible base works across gas, electric, and induction hobs
• Welded handle construction avoids the weak points associated with riveted or screwed fittings
• 18/10 stainless steel resists staining and is dishwasher safe
• Smooth interior is straightforward to clean between covers
• Consistent wall thickness supports even heat distribution across the base

At 200mm, this pan is best suited to smaller kitchens, finishing stations, or as part of a set where multiple pan sizes are used across different tasks. It is not intended for batch cooking or high-volume production — for those applications, a larger or heavier-gauge pan would be more appropriate.

If you are equipping a new kitchen or building out a cookware set and want to talk through what sizes and quantities make sense for your service style, the team is happy to help.

The Pujadas blinis pan is a small, single-portion frying pan designed specifically for cooking blinis, fried eggs, and other small-format items where portion control and consistent presentation matter. At 120mm across, it produces a neat, uniform result directly on the hob without the need for ring moulds or additional equipment.

In a busy kitchen environment, these pans are often used in multiples — running several side by side on a range during service to keep up with demand. The aluminium construction heats quickly and evenly, which helps avoid hot spots that can catch delicate batters or egg whites. The 4mm base thickness gives a reasonable level of heat retention without adding unnecessary weight, which matters when staff are handling pans repeatedly throughout service.

The PFOA-free non-stick coating is applied in multiple layers, which contributes to durability under regular professional use. Practically, this means:

• Easier release of blinis, eggs, and similar items without excess fat
• Faster cleaning between covers, supporting kitchen hygiene and workflow
• Reduced risk of sticking that can disrupt plating consistency
• Compatibility with gas, electric, and vitroceramic cooking surfaces

It is worth noting that non-stick aluminium pans of this type are not induction compatible, so that should be confirmed before ordering if your range includes induction hobs. As with any non-stick cookware, avoiding metal utensils and abrasive cleaning will extend the life of the coating considerably.

This pan is well suited to cafés, hotel breakfast operations, bistros, and any kitchen producing blinis, individual egg dishes, or small pancakes as a regular menu item. For operations running very high volumes continuously, a cast or pressed aluminium pan with a heavier base may offer better longevity under sustained heat.

If you are unsure whether this size and construction suits your cooking surface or service style, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

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.

The Pujadas Red Non-Stick Fry Pan is part of the Cool Line Colours range — a line of stainless steel cookware finished in bold colours, designed to work as comfortably at a live cooking station as it does in a back-of-house kitchen. The red finish is consistent across the range, making it a practical choice for operations that use colour-coding to separate cooking tasks or allergen zones.

Built from stainless steel with a sandwich base, the pan distributes heat evenly across the cooking surface and is compatible with induction, gas, vitroceramic, and electric hobs. The non-stick coating performs reliably for pan-frying, sautéing, and light searing work, though like all non-stick surfaces it benefits from the use of appropriate utensils and careful temperature management to preserve its service life.

Practically, this pan suits operations where presentation matters — open kitchens, tableside service, or stations where cookware is visible to guests. The ergonomic handle aids control during service without becoming unwieldy.

• Colour-coded design supports allergen or task separation
• Even heat distribution across gas, induction, and electric hobs
• Non-stick surface reduces the need for added fats
• Suited to front-of-house presentation and live cooking
• Stainless steel construction holds up in busy service environments

If you are building out a full set within the Cool Line Colours range or need guidance on which pan sizes best suit your menu requirements, the team is happy to help you put together the right combination.

The Pujadas Ergos Expert is a professional-grade aluminium frying pan with a non-stick coating, designed for daily use in commercial kitchen environments. At 320mm, it sits in the larger end of the standard fry pan range, making it practical for cooking larger portions or multiple items in a single pass. It is compatible with gas and electric hob types but is not suitable for induction hobs or oven use, which is worth confirming against your kitchen setup before purchasing.

Aluminium construction keeps the pan lightweight relative to its size, which matters when kitchen staff are working quickly across a busy service. The material conducts heat evenly and responds well to temperature changes, helping operators maintain consistent results when moving between tasks. The non-stick surface reduces the need for excess oil and simplifies cleaning between services, both of which have a small but real effect on day-to-day efficiency.

• Lightweight aluminium body reduces fatigue during extended service periods
• Non-stick coating supports lower-fat cooking and straightforward cleaning
• Responsive heat conductivity helps maintain consistent cooking results
• Practical 320mm diameter handles larger portions or multi-item cooking
• Compatible with gas and electric hobs — no induction or oven use

This pan is well suited to cafés, small restaurants, hotel kitchens, and staff catering operations where a reliable, easy-to-handle fry pan is needed for everyday cooking tasks. It is a practical choice for moderate service volumes. For kitchens running very high-volume or continuous hob use, a heavier-gauge or more hardwearing pan may offer better longevity.

If you are unsure whether this pan suits your hob type or service requirements, the team is happy to help you choose the right option.

The De Buyer Mineral B is a traditional black iron frying pan finished with an organic beeswax-based coating rather than any synthetic treatment. Made from iron, it heats quickly, tolerates very high temperatures, and is compatible with all hob types including induction. The beeswax finish protects the pan before first use and burns off cleanly during seasoning, after which the iron surface develops a natural non-stick patina with continued use.

In a working kitchen, iron pans of this type are valued for their responsiveness — they heat fast, transfer that heat evenly across the cooking surface, and handle sustained high-heat cooking such as searing, sautéing, and finishing proteins without degrading over time. Unlike coated non-stick pans, the Mineral B improves with use rather than wearing out, which makes it a practical long-term choice for kitchens that go through cookware regularly.

• Builds a natural non-stick surface through seasoning — no synthetic coatings to degrade
• Compatible with induction, gas, electric, and solid-top ranges
• Handles high-heat searing and oven finishing without damage
• Straightforward to maintain with correct care
• Iron construction is durable under daily professional use

The pan does require initial seasoning before use and ongoing care — it should not be left wet or washed with harsh detergents, as iron will rust if the surface is neglected. For kitchens accustomed to coated non-stick pans, there is a short adjustment period. At 240mm this size suits single-portion work and smaller-batch cooking rather than high-volume production. It is not dishwasher safe.

This pan is well suited to chef-led kitchens, smaller brigade operations, and any environment where longevity and cooking performance matter more than low-maintenance convenience. If you are equipping a larger operation or need multiple sizes, it is worth talking through the options with us before ordering.

The Pujadas Hercules is a professional-grade non-stick aluminium fry pan designed for daily heavy use across commercial kitchen environments. The 320mm diameter makes it a practical all-round size for sautéing, pan-frying and finishing, and it is compatible with induction, gas, vitro and electric cooking surfaces, giving it genuine flexibility across different kitchen setups.

In a busy kitchen, non-stick performance tends to degrade quickly on inferior pans. The Hercules uses a multi-layer professional coating that is built to resist abrasion over extended service — meaning it holds its release properties longer than lighter domestic-grade cookware. The coating is also PFOA-free, which is increasingly expected in professional catering environments. The stainless steel induction base ensures stable, even heat transfer on induction hobs without hotspots that would compromise cooking consistency.

A few practical points worth noting:

• Flat iron handle with epoxy coating — heat-resistant and suited to intensive daily handling
• PFOA-free non-stick coating — abrasion-resistant multi-layer construction
• Stainless steel induction base — compatible across all hob types
• Non-stick aluminium body — lightweight without sacrificing heat distribution
• 320mm diameter — practical for a wide range of single-portion and small-batch cooking tasks

This pan is well suited to mid-sized kitchens, gastro pubs, cafés and hotel operations where a reliable, multi-hob-compatible fry pan is needed for regular service. For kitchens running very high cover numbers or requiring larger-format cookware, it is worth considering whether a bigger diameter or heavier-gauge pan would better match the throughput demands.

If you are specifying cookware across a full kitchen brigade or want guidance on matching pan sizes to your service style, our team is happy to talk it through.

The Pujadas Aluminium Rectangular Fry Pan is a professional-grade pan designed for everyday commercial kitchen use. Its rectangular form makes it particularly well suited to cooking fish fillets, flat cuts of meat, and similar items where maximum contact with the cooking surface aids even heat distribution and a consistent finish.

Aluminium construction gives the pan good thermal conductivity, allowing it to heat up quickly and respond promptly to temperature changes on the hob. In a busy service environment this helps operators work at pace without waiting on the pan. The multi-layer non-stick coating is formulated for professional use, offering resistance to the abrasion that comes with daily cleaning and the repeated contact of kitchen tools during service.

From an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages are:

• PFOA-free non-stick coating reduces the need for excess cooking fat and speeds up cleaning between services
• Rectangular shape maximises usable cooking surface for fish, fillets and flat cuts
• Compatible with gas, electric and vitroceramic hobs, giving flexibility across different kitchen set-ups
• Stainless steel handle with ergonomic design reduces hand fatigue during extended service periods
• Aluminium body keeps the pan relatively light, which is practical when handling at pace

There are no particular installation requirements for a pan of this type, though it is worth confirming hob compatibility before ordering — it is not suitable for induction cooking unless your hob includes a bridging function. The pan is designed for professional use and will perform best when cleaned properly and stored without heavy items stacked directly against the non-stick surface.

This pan is a practical choice for smaller operations, fish-focused menus, or as part of a broader batterie de cuisine in a mid-sized kitchen. For very high-volume operations running extended service periods, a heavier-gauge or larger-format pan may be worth considering.

If you are unsure whether this pan suits your hobs or menu requirements, the team is happy to talk it through with you.

The Hygiplas 24cm non-stick frying pan is a straightforward aluminium pan finished with a Teflon Platinum Plus coating and fitted with a riveted steel handle. It is the kind of workhorse piece that sits in most commercial prep kitchens and smaller service operations where a reliable, easy-clean pan is needed for everyday tasks — eggs, omelettes, light sautéing, and finishing work.

In practice, aluminium heats quickly and evenly at this size, which suits fast-turnaround tasks during service. The Teflon Platinum Plus coating reduces sticking and simplifies cleaning, which is useful when throughput is high and turnaround time between covers is tight. The riveted steel handle holds firm under repeated use and is more durable than a screwed fitting for day-to-day kitchen handling.

• Quick, even heat distribution for efficient short-order cooking
• Non-stick surface reduces oil usage and speeds up cleaning between tasks
• Riveted handle provides a secure, lasting grip under regular use
• Lightweight build suits fast-paced prep and finishing work

This is a light-duty pan suited to lower-volume operations, smaller kitchens, or as a supplementary piece in larger brigades. It is not intended for continuous heavy-duty frying or high-temperature induction hobs — operators running high-volume services or needing induction compatibility should consider a heavier-gauge or induction-ready alternative.

If you are unsure whether this size suits your service style, or you need guidance on building out a cookware range for a new kitchen, the team is happy to talk it through.

The De Buyer Choc Resto is a professional-grade non-stick frying pan built for the demands of a working kitchen. Constructed from thick aluminium with a forged induction-compatible base, it delivers consistent, even heat distribution across the cooking surface — reducing hot spots and giving cooks reliable control over delicate proteins, eggs, and sauced dishes.

The five-layer PTFE non-stick coating is notably more resilient than the coatings found on lighter domestic or entry-level catering pans. In kitchen practice, this translates to a surface that holds up better against regular use, resists abrasion from utensils, and remains easier to clean after service. The riveted steel handle is oven-safe for short finishing passes, which is useful when a dish needs to go under a salamander or into a low oven briefly.

• Even heat distribution reduces the risk of scorching during busy service
• Multi-layer PTFE coating resists daily abrasion and cleaning chemicals better than standard coatings
• Induction-compatible base works across gas, electric, and induction ranges
• Riveted handle construction holds firm under repeated daily use
• Oven-safe for short finishing passes without switching pans

At 20cm, this is a single-portion pan. It suits kitchens where individual portions are cooked to order — omelettes, pan-fried fish fillets, smaller sauté work — rather than batch cooking. It is well suited to à la carte service, hotel breakfast stations, or smaller operations where a compact, reliable non-stick pan is needed on rotation. Kitchens running high cover counts may want to consider a larger diameter or a heavier-duty pan designed for greater throughput.

If you are unsure whether this size and coating specification suit your service style or hob setup, the team are happy to talk it through.

The Pujadas Black Pro 220mm fry pan is a cast aluminium non-stick pan designed for everyday professional use. The 220mm diameter makes it a practical size for single-portion work — eggs, pan sauces, smaller protein portions, and garnish finishing — where a larger pan would be unnecessary and a smaller one too restrictive.

Cast aluminium construction gives the pan a reasonable weight balance and reasonably even heat distribution across the base and lower sides, which helps reduce hotspot scorching on delicate items. The non-stick surface supports clean food release and reduces the amount of fat needed for most tasks, which is useful both for speed of service and for kitchens working to tighter dietary requirements.

The pan is induction compatible, making it a straightforward fit for kitchens running induction hobs or portable induction units — increasingly common in contemporary commercial kitchens where gas is not available or where heat management is a priority.

• Non-stick surface reduces residue and speeds up cleaning between covers
• Induction-ready base suits both fixed and portable induction equipment
• Cast aluminium body supports consistent heat spread for delicate work
• Compact 220mm diameter keeps workflow efficient on busy pass sections

This is a single-portion pan and suits kitchens that need several units in rotation rather than one pan for high-volume output. For operations cooking at larger batch sizes or needing a heavier-duty pan for sustained high-heat use, a larger or more robust option within the range may be worth considering.

If you are fitting out a new kitchen or replacing cookware across a brigade and want to talk through quantities or pan sizing, the team is happy to help you work through what makes sense for your service style.

The Pujadas Hercules is a professional-grade aluminium fry pan designed for daily use across commercial kitchen environments. The 240mm diameter sits in a practical mid-range size — large enough for single portions of most proteins or eggs in volume, compact enough to handle efficiently during a busy service. It is compatible with induction, gas, vitroceramic and electric hobs, which makes it a versatile choice where kitchen setups vary or change.

The pan is built around a multi-layer PFOA-free non-stick coating applied to the aluminium body, with a stainless steel base that enables induction compatibility. The coating is formulated for resistance to abrasion — an important consideration in professional kitchens where pans are used repeatedly across long service periods and cleaned frequently. The flat iron handle features an epoxy coating designed to resist heat transfer, giving a stable, secure grip without the need for a cloth during normal use.

In practical terms, this pan is well suited to kitchens running consistent output rather than occasional use. Key operational advantages include:

• Multi-source compatibility reduces the need for separate pan sets per hob type
• Abrasion-resistant non-stick coating extends service life under regular use
• Epoxy-coated iron handle provides a reliable, heat-resistant grip
• PFOA-free coating aligns with current professional kitchen hygiene standards
• Aluminium construction supports even heat distribution across the cooking surface

It is worth noting that aluminium non-stick pans of this type are best maintained with appropriate utensils and cleaning methods — metal tools and abrasive scourers will shorten the coating's lifespan regardless of grade. For very high-volume operations or kitchens running continuous service, a heavier-gauge or cast alternative may be worth considering alongside this model.

If you are unsure whether this size suits your service volumes, or would like guidance on building out a pan set for your operation, the team is happy to talk it through with you.

The Matfer Bourgeat Classe Chef is a professional non-stick frying pan built for daily use in commercial kitchens. The 200mm diameter makes it a practical choice for single-portion cooking — omelettes, pan sauces, fish portions, and similar tasks where a smaller, responsive pan is more useful than a larger one.

The pan is constructed from aluminium with a stainless steel base, which gives it good heat distribution across the cooking surface while keeping the overall weight manageable during a busy service. The non-stick coating is applied in four layers, which contributes to longer working life under regular use compared with lighter single-coat alternatives.

In practical terms, this pan suits kitchens where speed and consistency matter. The coating releases food cleanly with minimal fat, which helps with both plating and cleaning between covers. Key operational advantages include:

• Four-coat non-stick surface for extended durability under frequent use
• Aluminium construction for responsive, even heat distribution
• Stainless steel base for compatibility with induction hobs
• Manageable weight suited to high-repetition service tasks
• Easy to clean between courses during a busy pass

At 200mm, this is a smaller pan, well suited to à la carte service and single-portion work rather than batch cooking or larger cuts. Kitchens needing to handle larger portions or higher volumes at once would be better served by a larger diameter from the same range.

If you are building out a batterie de cuisine and want to talk through which sizes make sense for your menu and service style, the team is happy to help.

The Vogue 200mm non-stick frying pan is a lightweight aluminium pan with a Teflon-coated cooking surface and an induction-compatible base. It is a straightforward, practical pan intended for everyday cooking tasks in a commercial or semi-commercial setting.

At 200mm, this is a smaller pan, most naturally suited to single-portion cooking, eggs, sauces, and lighter sauté work rather than high-volume service. The non-stick surface performs well when managed correctly — moderate heat, appropriate utensils, and consistent cleaning will preserve the coating and extend the pan's working life considerably.

From a practical standpoint, the pan offers a few clear advantages for the right operation:

• Induction-compatible base works across gas, electric, and induction hob types
• Non-stick surface reduces oil usage and speeds up cleaning between uses
• Lightweight aluminium construction reduces fatigue during repetitive tasks
• Teflon coating helps prevent sticking on delicate items such as eggs and fish

Being aluminium, this pan is not intended for the sustained high-heat demands of a busy main-line service. Operators running intensive continuous service should consider a heavier-gauge or stainless-lined pan better suited to that environment. This pan is well matched to cafés, small hospitality operations, prep kitchens, or as a supplementary pan in a larger kitchen where a lightweight non-stick option is useful.

No special installation is required — the pan works across standard hob types including induction. As with any non-stick pan in a commercial environment, care with metal utensils and cleaning method will directly affect how long the coating lasts.

If you are unsure whether this size and construction suits your service requirements, we are happy to talk it through.

The De Buyer Choc Resto is a professional-grade non-stick frying pan built for demanding kitchen environments. Constructed from heavy-gauge aluminium with a forged induction-compatible base, it is designed to deliver consistent, even heat distribution across the full cooking surface — an important characteristic when precision matters during service.

In practice, the pan performs reliably across a range of cooking tasks, from sautéing and pan-frying to finishing proteins and vegetables. The five-layer PTFE non-stick coating is notably resilient compared to lighter domestic or entry-level catering pans, holding up well against the repeated use and regular cleaning cycles that commercial kitchens demand. The forged base maintains good contact with induction hobs, reducing hot spots and giving operators more control over cooking temperatures during busy periods.

Key practical advantages include:

• Even heat distribution reduces the risk of scorching during high-volume service
• Multi-layer non-stick surface supports cleaner food release and faster turnaround between covers
• Riveted steel handle provides a secure, stable grip under load
• Oven-safe construction allows dishes to be transferred and finished without changing cookware
• Compatible with induction, gas, and solid-top ranges

At 36cm this pan suits mid-to-high volume cooking rather than small à la carte operations. It is worth noting that at 2.45kg the pan has reasonable heft — manageable for most kitchen staff, though operators running very high pan-turnover service may want to assess ergonomics for their team. If your volume is lower and a smaller pan would cover service adequately, or if you need multiple pans across several stations, it is worth considering the full range to find the right balance of size and weight for your workflow.

The Choc Resto is well suited to restaurants, hotel kitchens, and catering operations where consistent non-stick performance and durability are priorities over budget price points. It is not intended as a single-use or light-duty pan — its construction is aimed at operators who expect cookware to last under regular professional use.

The Pujadas Ergos is a professional-grade stainless steel fry pan designed for daily use across commercial kitchen environments. The 200mm diameter makes it a compact, single-portion pan — practical for à la carte service, sauce reductions, or finishing work rather than high-volume batch cooking. It carries an Excalibur non-stick coating treatment applied over 18/10 stainless steel construction, and the sandwich base is engineered to work across induction, gas, vitroceramic, and electric hobs.

In service, the pan handles the repetitive demands of a professional kitchen reasonably well for its size. The stainless steel tube handle uses an ergonomic profile designed to stay cooler during use, which matters when a pan is being moved on and off a burner repeatedly through a busy shift. The non-stick treatment is specified to offer good abrasion resistance, which extends its working life compared with lighter coated pans — though as with any non-stick surface, care with utensil choice will preserve it longer.

• Compatible with induction, gas, vitroceramic, and electric hobs
• Excalibur non-stick coating with high abrasion resistance
• Ergonomic stainless steel tube handle designed to reduce heat transfer
• 18/10 stainless steel construction for durability in daily use
• Sandwich base ensures stable heat distribution on induction

At 200mm this pan is best suited to smaller brigades, chef's table operations, or kitchens where individual portions are cooked to order. It is not intended for volume catering or batch frying — for those applications a larger diameter pan from the same range would be more appropriate.

If you are equipping a new section or want guidance on building out a cookware set that matches your service style, the team is happy to talk it through.

The Pujadas Tribute fry pan is a professional-grade, induction-compatible frying pan built around a tri-ply multi-metal body. That layered construction combines the heat responsiveness of an outer layer with the even conductivity of an inner core, giving the pan reliable temperature distribution across the cooking surface without hot spots.

In a working kitchen, that consistency matters. Whether you're searing proteins to order, finishing sauces, or sautéing vegetables during a busy service, the pan responds predictably to heat changes rather than lagging or spiking. The 320mm diameter gives a practical cooking surface for single portions or small batch work at the pass.

The CeramiGuard II non-stick coating provides smooth food release and simplifies cleaning between covers — a practical consideration when the same pan is being turned around quickly through a service. Key operational advantages include:

• Induction-compatible base for use across modern hob types
• Tri-ply construction for even heat distribution without hot spots
• CeramiGuard II non-stick surface for reliable food release and quick cleaning
• Ergonomic handle designed to stay cooler during extended use
• Ever-Tite rivet system to maintain handle integrity over time

The handle is designed to remain cooler during use and provides a secure, comfortable grip — useful during a long service where repetitive handling is the norm. The Ever-Tite rivet system is worth noting for longevity: loose handles are a common failure point on pans used heavily day to day, and this design addresses that directly.

This pan is well suited to professional kitchens running induction hobs where consistent, controllable heat is needed for pan work. It is a practical mid-range choice for à la carte service, catering operations, and sites where non-stick performance and ease of cleaning are priorities. For very high-volume operations turning the same pan through hundreds of covers daily, it is worth discussing whether a heavier-duty option might offer better long-term value.

If you're unsure whether this size and spec fits your service style or hob setup, we're happy to talk it through.

The Hygiplas Platinum Plus is a 28cm aluminium frying pan with a Teflon non-stick coating, designed for everyday use in professional kitchens. The colour-coded red handle follows the standard kitchen colour-coding system, helping teams quickly identify which pan is designated for which food type and reducing the risk of cross-contamination during a busy service.

In practice, the non-stick surface performs well for pan-frying proteins, eggs, and other items where sticking or tearing would affect presentation. The coating allows operators to work with less oil or fat without compromising results, which has a small but cumulative effect on food costs and plate consistency over time. The aluminium construction keeps the pan light enough for repeated handling across a shift without adding unnecessary fatigue.

• Teflon Platinum Plus non-stick coating reduces sticking and aids clean results
• Colour-coded red handle supports allergen and cross-contamination control
• Hanging hook on the handle allows straightforward rack or wall storage
• Lightweight aluminium construction reduces handling fatigue during service
• Non-stick surface requires less oil, supporting consistent food cost control

There are no special installation requirements — this pan is hand wash only and should not be placed in a commercial dishwasher, as high-temperature and chemical wash cycles will degrade the non-stick coating over time. Metal utensils should be avoided for the same reason. With appropriate care, the pan offers reliable day-to-day service, though high-volume operations running multiple sittings daily may find a heavier-gauge alternative holds up better under sustained use.

This pan is well suited to smaller operations, café kitchens, and catering teams where a reliable, everyday non-stick pan is needed and colour-coded HACCP compliance is a practical requirement. If your kitchen runs a higher volume of covers or requires more frequent daily use, it is worth considering a pan built to a heavier specification.

If you are building out a set of colour-coded cookware or have questions about what works best for your kitchen setup, the team is happy to help you put together the right selection.

The Vogue Platinum Plus is a 240mm non-stick frying pan constructed from stainless steel and finished with a Teflon-based non-stick coating. It sits at the lighter end of the professional cookware range and is designed for everyday frying tasks where ease of use and quick cleaning are priorities.

In a working kitchen environment this size of pan is typically used for single portions or small batches — eggs, fish fillets, sautéed vegetables, and similar pan-fried dishes. The non-stick surface reduces food adhesion, which is useful during a fast-paced service when there is little time to manage sticking or to deglaze between orders. Recovery between uses is straightforward, and the pan cleans quickly at the end of service.

Practical day-to-day advantages include:

• Reduced oil requirement compared to uncoated pans, supporting lighter cooking styles
• Non-stick coating minimises burnt-on residue, cutting wash-up time
• Stainless steel construction is more durable under regular commercial use than aluminium alternatives
• Elongated handle design helps keep hands clear of direct heat during use

This pan is compatible with gas and electric hobs. It is not induction-compatible unless confirmed separately, so it is worth checking your hob type before purchasing. Non-stick coatings require some care in use — metal utensils and abrasive cleaning will shorten coating life. For high-volume operations where pans are in near-constant use, a heavier-duty option may be more cost-effective over time.

The 240mm Platinum Plus is well suited to smaller kitchens, cafés, and operations where pan-frying features regularly but not at high volume. It is also a practical spare or backup pan for larger kitchens. If you need guidance on which pan size or construction suits your service style, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Matfer Bourgeat Tradition Plus is a stainless steel frying pan designed for professional kitchen use across all cooking surfaces, including induction. At 240mm diameter, it sits in a practical mid-range size — large enough for individual portions and small pan sauces, without being unwieldy on a busy line.

Stainless steel construction holds up well under the demands of commercial service. It transfers heat evenly across gas, electric, and induction hobs, and the stay-cool handle helps reduce the risk of burns during fast-paced service when pan-to-pan movement is constant. The handle seal is watertight, which makes cleaning more straightforward and reduces the risk of bacteria harbouring in joints — a practical consideration in any kitchen operating under hygiene inspection.

Key practical points for kitchen operators:

• Compatible with all hob types, including induction — no need to segregate pans by station
• Watertight handle joint simplifies cleaning and supports hygiene compliance
• Stay-cool handle reduces handling risk during busy service periods
• Stainless steel construction is durable under daily commercial use
• Consistent heat distribution suits sautéing, pan sauces, and light frying tasks

This pan is straightforward to use across a variety of hob setups and requires no special installation considerations. It is well suited to kitchens standardising their smallwares on induction or mixed-hob environments. At this size, it works best as a single-portion or mise-en-place pan rather than a high-volume batch cooking tool — operators needing larger capacities should consider moving up to a bigger diameter within the Tradition Plus range.

If you are equipping a new kitchen or replacing cookware across multiple stations and want to talk through which sizes and quantities suit your service style, the team is happy to help.

The De Buyer Mineral B Element is a carbon steel frying pan made in France, designed for professional kitchen use. It is a straightforward, traditional pan built for high-heat cooking — searing, sautéing, and pan-frying at the kind of temperatures that non-stick and coated pans cannot reliably handle. There are no non-stick coatings to degrade or replace; the pan builds a natural seasoning over time, improving with use.

In a working kitchen, carbon steel pans like this sit between cast iron and stainless steel in practical terms. They heat quickly and retain heat well enough for consistent searing results, while remaining lighter than cast iron and more responsive to temperature changes. The 32cm diameter is a practical size for a range of proteins and vegetables, and the pan handles both hob and oven work — useful when finishing dishes or holding items briefly during service. The riveted steel handle is robust and stays secure under daily handling.

A few things worth bearing in mind before purchasing:

• Carbon steel requires seasoning before first use and ongoing care to prevent rust
• Not suited to acidic sauces or prolonged wet cooking — this is a dry-heat pan
• Compatible with all heat sources, including induction
• The steel handle transfers heat, so cloth or a heat guard is essential on the stove
• At 2.63kg, the pan has good substance without being cumbersome

This pan is well suited to chefs who want a reliable, long-lasting piece of cookware that rewards proper use and care. It is a common choice in professional kitchens where non-stick pans wear out quickly and cast iron is too heavy for fast-paced service. If you are equipping a kitchen and are unsure whether this size or style is the right fit for your operation, the team is happy to help you work through the options.
