The all-rounder for everyday cooking.
The Equitherm 28cm Hybrid Frying Pan pairs stainless steel toughness with PFOA-free non-stick convenience — giving you a pan that sears, sautés, and cleans up in minutes.
What makes it hybrid?
This pan isn't just non-stick and it isn't just stainless steel — it's both. Raised stainless steel ridges protect the non-stick coating from wear, so you can cook with metal utensils and still get effortless food release. The 2.5mm thick 3-ply construction features a substantial aluminium core that extends up the sides of the pan, ensuring even heat from edge to edge and resisting the warping that plagues thinner cookware.

FAQs
What is hybrid cookware?
Hybrid cookware combines stainless steel durability with non-stick convenience in one pan. Raised stainless steel ridges protect the PFOA-free non-stick surface, so it lasts far longer than a traditional non-stick pan while still giving you easy food release.
What size frying pan do I need?
It depends on how many you're cooking for. The 26cm suits 1–2 people, the 28cm handles 2–3, and the 30cm is ideal for families of 3–5. When in doubt, go one size up — you can always cook less in a bigger pan, but not the other way around.
Can I use this on induction?
Yes. The stainless steel base is fully induction compatible, along with gas, ceramic, halogen, and sealed plate cooktops.
Can I use metal utensils?
Yes — spatulas, tongs, spoons, and whisks are all fine. The raised stainless steel ridges protect the non-stick surface from everyday cooking tools. Just avoid cutting directly into the pan with knives or gouging it with other sharp objects.
How do I get the best non-stick performance?
Preheat the pan on medium heat for a minute or two, then add a small amount of oil before cooking. This simple step keeps food sliding easily and extends the life of the non-stick surface.
What does the lifetime warranty cover?
The warranty covers manufacturing defects for the lifetime of the product. Normal wear like minor cosmetic changes from regular cooking is expected and doesn't affect performance.
