PFAS score
Tramontina · Griddle Pans
Tramontina Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron Grill and Griddle Set (2-Pack)
Lower PFAS concern, traditional cast iron needs no Teflon-family coating.
Tramontina's cast iron grill/griddle is seasoned with food-grade oil, not synthetic nonstick coatings, so it carries minimal PFAS risk. Cast iron naturally builds a patina without Teflon-type coating or Teflon-family coating. The brand discloses nothing about PFAS, but the material itself does not require fluorinated additives.

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.
