PFAS score
Tramontina · Stainless Steel Cookware
Tramontina Gourmet Tri-Ply Clad 12-Piece Cookware Set
Skip until Tramontina discloses nonstick coating chemistry or switches to PFAS-free alternatives.
Tramontina's Gourmet Tri-Ply cookware uses a nonstick coating but provides no public disclosure of whether it contains Teflon-type coating, PFOA, or other PFAS. The brand has not made any PFAS-free claims or pursued third-party verification. Without transparency on coating formulation, the nonstick risk cannot be ruled out.

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 42% 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.
