On one hand, GreenPan offers a much bigger range of products and tends to cost less than Caraway's cookware, and their pans are much better made. It may also be better for induction, a lot more durable, and less susceptible to damage from the dishwasher and metal utensils, depending on which cookware you choose.
To protect your health, avoid cookware that leaches heavy metals, contains toxic coatings, or breaks down under heat. Prioritize safer everyday alternatives like cast iron, carbon steel, and glass.
Yes, GreenPan manufactures the majority of its cookware in its own eco-friendly factory located in Jiangmen, China.

Yes, GreenPan products are lead-free. The company's signature Thermolon ceramic nonstick coating is manufactured without lead, cadmium, PFAS, PFOA, and other harmful chemicals. Instead, the coating is derived primarily from natural sand.
Quality matters. While reputable manufacturers create PFAS-free ceramic coatings, some lower-quality imports may contain heavy metals or other concerning substances. Traditional 100% ceramic cookware - the kind made entirely from clay and fired at high temperatures - has proven safe through centuries of use.
In family kitchens, non-stick pans are the first choice for many housewives and cooking enthusiasts because of their easy cleaning and anti-stick properties. However, professional chefs rarely use non-stick pans in kitchens, preferring stainless steel, cast iron or carbon steel pans.
