GrillSimple Non-Stick Flex Grill Sheets
Skip, Teflon-type coating-based non-stick cookware carries elevated PFOA/PFAS concern; safer alternatives exist.
Teflon's GrillSimple sheets use Teflon-type coating, a Teflon-family coating that historically contained PFOA and may shed PFAS during use or heating. While modern Teflon claims to be PFOA-free, the base Teflon-type coating polymer itself is a fluorochemical and breakdown products remain uncertain.

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 92% 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.
