Mauviel M'Elite Hammered 5-Ply Stainless Steel Nonstick Frying Pan
Nonstick coating composition undisclosed; safer stainless base alone unclear.
Mauviel does not disclose nonstick coating materials or PFAS status. Stainless steel base is lower concern, but coating type remains unknown and typical for many nonstick cookware.

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 35% 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.
