Greetings!
It's June and the "GREEN" products just keep rolling in. This month alone, we have three brands of stainless steel water bottles, bamboo utensil sets, and resusable sandwich bags. Plus we have a plethora of "green" items made by our regularly featured companies.  They manufacture in the most responsible way they can and/or use materials that are renewable, from wooden Boos Blocks to horn caviar spoons and spreaders.

What is the benefit of diamond reinforced and pressure cast aluminum?
Diamonds have the best thermal conductivity of all materials and have intrinsic non-stick and self release properties. 6mm pressure cast aluminum the best heat conductor for pots and pans. This results in a perfectly flat pan base, perfect heat distribution, no hot spots and superior heat retention. The thickness of the Swiss Diamond pan base has been scientifically determined to provide fast and even heating. Swiss Diamond Cookware can be used on ceramic, halogen, gas, electric, solid plat and radiant ring cook tops, we also have a unique induction line. The pan base thickness combined with the diamond reinforced surface allows for perfect browning, searing and deglazing.
