Silicon Muffin Pan

D · Elevated

Lower concern, silicone muffin pans are inherently PFAS-light, but brand transparency is absent.

Silicone is a non-fluorinated elastomer and does not require PFAS-based nonstick coatings or water repellency treatments. Silicone King provides no public statement on PFAS. No third-party testing or verification found. No published lab data exists for this specific product.

What we don’t know

This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 72% 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.
