Matfer Bourgeat Tradition Plus Stainless Steel Saucepan 1.2Ltr

The Matfer Bourgeat Tradition Plus is a stainless steel saucepan designed for professional kitchen use. At 1.2 litres, it sits at the smaller end of the range, making it well suited to sauces, reductions, and small-batch preparations where precision and consistent heat response matter more than volume.

In a working kitchen environment, the build quality of a saucepan tends to show over time rather than immediately. The Tradition Plus is constructed with a reinforced non-drip edge and a thick rim profile, which holds up well to daily use and reduces the kind of wear around the pouring edge that cheaper pans develop after repeated service cycles. The stay-cool handle provides a secure, practical grip without the need for a cloth during short movements on the stove, which matters when the section is busy.

Practically, this pan works across all cooking surfaces, including induction, making it a reliable choice for kitchens that have already moved to induction hobs or are planning to. Key operational advantages include:

• Compatible with all hob types, including induction
• Reinforced non-drip pouring edge for controlled service
• Stay-cool handle reduces handling risk during busy periods
• Robust stainless steel construction suited to daily professional use
• Lids available separately, allowing flexible pairing across the range

At this capacity, the pan is best suited to small garnish-level sauce work, individual portion preparation, or mise en place tasks rather than bulk production. Kitchens needing to hold or produce larger quantities at pace should look at higher-capacity options within the Tradition Plus range.

If you are building out a set or are unsure which sizes best suit your station layout and service style, the team is happy to talk it through with you.
