Forneau guide to choosing the perfect titanium pan for your kitchen Customer photo
Since retiring, I’m the one cooking at home. Honestly, I wish I’d discovered this pan sooner. It heats up quickly, food barely sticks, and now it’s the only one we use.

Gérard P.

The removable handle system is incredibly convenient. My three pans stack perfectly and take up hardly more space than a single one. When you have a small kitchen like mine, it really makes a difference.

Martine L.

First meal with my new pan and I was genuinely impressed. I was worried the chicken would stick since there’s no coating, but it didn’t at all. Cleaning it took just a few minutes. Very happy with my purchase.

Sylive I.

I’ve been using my Maison Forneau pans almost daily for several years and they’re still in great condition. Even with heavy use, they’ve aged beautifully and I see hardly any scratches. I’d buy them again without hesitation.

I cook every day for the whole family and was mainly looking for something robust and easy to care for. After several weeks of use, I’m truly delighted. It heats up well, nothing sticks as long as you follow the guidance, and cleaning is incredibly quick. I have absolutely no regrets about my purchase.

Philippe R. Customer photo
I’ve been a chef for over 25 years, so I’m naturally quite particular about my equipment. I wanted to try titanium out of curiosity and was genuinely impressed. The pan heats up quickly, sears beautifully, and above all, it’s a real pleasure to use. Even at home, I’ve ended up setting aside my old pans.

Choose my cookware

8 questions

Which piece should I start with?

The 24 cm Signature pan is our best-seller: it covers everyday essentials for two to three people. The titanium cutting board is the other natural starting point: non-porous, free of microplastics. The sets then let you build your cookware collection piece by piece.

What is grade 1 titanium?

Grade 1 is the purest form of titanium — 99.5% pure titanium. It’s the same material used for surgical implants and aerospace components. It is completely inert, meaning it never reacts with food, acids, or bases.

Is titanium truly non-stick?

Pure titanium naturally offers non-stick properties without any chemical coating. With a small amount of fat and gradual heating, food does not stick. Unlike Teflon, this property never wears off over time.

Does titanium release anything into food?

No. Grade 1 titanium is fully biocompatible and chemically inert. Even at very high temperatures, it releases no particles, no heavy metals, and no toxic substances. That’s why it’s used inside the human body.

What’s the difference between titanium, stainless steel, and cast iron?

Stainless steel contains nickel and chromium, which can migrate into food. Cast iron is heavy and will rust if not cared for properly. Titanium is three times lighter than cast iron, more durable than stainless steel, and 100% inert. There’s simply no comparison.

Are your cooking surfaces free of PFAS?

Yes. Our cooking surface is PFAS-free and contains no non-stick coating. Find full details on materials and testing on our Facts & Proof page.

Is your cookware compatible with induction and other hobs?

Yes: induction, gas, electric and ceramic hobs. The stainless steel base ensures induction compatibility.

Do you offer gift sets?

Yes, our products are available as gift sets with premium packaging. It’s the perfect gift for cooking enthusiasts who refuse to compromise on their health.

Cooking well

4 questions

How can I reduce food sticking?

Preheat for one to two minutes on a medium heat, then add your cooking fat. Let food sear before turning it.

How much oil should I use?

Start with a drizzle of oil spread over the surface after preheating. Adjust according to your ingredients and recipe; cooking without fat is not recommended.

Can I use metal utensils?

Yes, and we actually recommend it: there’s no coating to damage. For best results, use our Forneau titanium utensils: same material as the pan, inert, PFAS-free, no coating, nothing flakes or transfers to your food. Any surface marks remain superficial and do not affect cooking or lifespan.

Can your cookware go in the oven?

Yes. Pans, sauté pans, woks and saucepans are oven-safe, including the handle. Remove the glass lid above 200 °C and use an oven mitt: the titanium and the brass of the handle get hot.

Care & longevity

4 questions

How do I clean my cookware day to day?

Let it cool, then use hot water, mild washing-up liquid and a non-abrasive sponge. Soak stubborn residues before removing them.

Are they dishwasher safe?

Yes, titanium pans, boards and utensils are dishwasher safe. Hand washing, however, helps limit cosmetic marks caused by detergents and impacts.

What if the titanium gets marked or changes colour?

Titanium can develop a patina and show marks with use. For deposits, try a paste of bicarbonate of soda and water; avoid abrasive pads.

Do I need to season the surface?

No, this surface does not require seasoning. Simply preheat the pan and add a little fat before each use.

Delivery & warranty

9 questions

When will I receive my order?

Is delivery free?

Yes. Delivery is free on all orders, worldwide, with no minimum spend.

Can I track my order?

Absolutely. As soon as your parcel is dispatched, you’ll receive an email with a real-time tracking link. You can also contact us at info@forneau.fr with any questions about your delivery.

What is your returns policy?

You have 14 days from receipt to change your mind, no justification required.

A full refund is only possible if the product is returned to us new, unused, complete, and in its original, undamaged packaging. You may open the parcel and inspect the product, but if it has been used (cooking, cutting, dishwasher), it is no longer considered new: a deduction will be applied according to our public and standard depreciation scale — €15 if the original packaging is damaged or missing, 20% for signs of handling, 50% if the product has been used, and up to 100% if it is damaged.

Return shipping costs, tracking number, and insurance are entirely your responsibility. Tracking is mandatory: without it, a lost parcel cannot be refunded.

What if my order arrives damaged?

Contact us promptly with your order number and photos of the parcel and the product. Keep the packaging. If transport damage is confirmed, replacement is free of charge.

What does the lifetime warranty cover?

It covers manufacturing or material defects. Signs of normal use alone do not constitute a defect. Contact us to have your claim assessed.

Which payment methods do you accept? Is payment secure?

We accept all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), PayPal, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. Our store uses SSL protocol and is fully secured by Shopify Payments: your payment details are never stored on our servers.
