PFAS score
GreenPan · Crepe Pans
GreenPan Advanced Crepe Maker
Moderate caution: ceramic-marketed nonstick, but coating composition and PFAS absence unconfirmed by brand or third party.
GreenPan crepe makers use proprietary nonstick coatings marketed as 'thermolon' or ceramic-derived, which may carry lower PFAS risk than traditional Teflon-type coating, but the brand does not publicly disclose coating chemistry or provide third-party verification.
Brand says: “GreenPan markets 'thermolon' or similar proprietary ceramic-based coatings; no explicit PFAS disclosure or denial found in public materials”

Why this grade
Non-stick, chemistry undisclosed

Vague safety claims only
Uses vague language ("eco-friendly", "clean") without a specific PFAS statement.
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.
