Titanium pan made in France? Where does a Forneau really come from

You are looking for « titanium pan made in France ». Here is the exact answer, because a pan guaranteed for life deserves a clearly stated origin.

What is done in France

• The design of each piece: shapes, thicknesses, handle, balance, by the Forneau design studio.
• The material specification: commercially pure grade 1 titanium (ASTM B265 Gr.1), uncoated, with no aluminium or vanadium alloy.
• The inspection: every batch is checked against this specification, and the range is analysed each year by SGS, an ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory (latest PFAS tests: July 2026, all substances below detectable level).
• The service: customer relations, the lifetime guarantee and returns are handled by the French team.
• The stock: our pieces are stored in Paris and shipped from Paris throughout Europe, within 48 hours, free delivery.

What we do not say

We do not write « made in France ». Saying « designed in France » is accurate: it reflects the design, the specification, the inspection, the service and the Paris stock, all carried out in France.

Nor do we write that titanium is scratchproof: it does scratch, and the scratches are cosmetic since there is no coating to pierce through.
