PFAS score
Caraway · Cookware
Caraway Stir Fry Pan
Skip until Caraway discloses nonstick coating chemistry or provides third-party PFAS testing.
Caraway claims a ceramic nonstick coating but does not publicly disclose the chemical composition or test results for PFAS. While ceramic-marketed cookware is often lower-PFAS than traditional Teflon-type coating, 'ceramic' is a marketing term that can mask various Teflon-family coating or other synthetic binders.
Brand says: “Caraway markets pans as 'non-toxic ceramic coating' but does not explicitly address PFAS in public materials”

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 45% confidence. It is not a lab result.
No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.
The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.
Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
