PFAS score
GreenPan · Dutch Ovens
Great Jones Double Dutch
Ceramic cookware lowers Teflon-type coating risk, but GreenPan's vague disclosure on PFAS in Thermolon leaves uncertainty.
GreenPan's Double Dutch uses their proprietary 'Thermolon' ceramic nonstick coating, which they confirm is Teflon-type coating-free. However, the brand does not publicly disclose whether this coating contains PFAS alternatives or other fluorochemicals.
Brand says: “GreenPan markets 'Thermolon' ceramic coating as PTFE-free and heavy metal-free, but does not explicitly disclose PFAS status.”

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.
