SKK Pots and Pans are manufactured from heavy gauge aluminium, which gives them incredible durabilty, even heat distribution, and perfect cooking results while remaining well balanced and lighter than expected. Larger pans include a second moulded lip for increased stability while all handles are ergonimacally designed and heat resistant.

SKK pans have a special thermocore base and can be used on all cookers including gas, radiant ring, solid hotplates, ceramic and halogen hobs, as well as Aga style ranges. Induction Ranges can also be used on Induction hobs.

The pan would also work well on a barbeque - but you would need to shield the handle from direct heat.

The thickness of the base prevents warping and improves heat distribution, and some of the larger Fish Pans are big enough enough to span two cooker rings or burners.

The non-stick surface on SKK pans has a titanium base and is 40 times tougher than Stainless Steel allowing the use of metal utensils without the fear of scratching or damaging the surface. This technology makes each non-stick SKK pan truely a pan for life.

The SKK Premium Range comes with detatchable handle making each piece not only practical for use on the hob but all types of ovens up to gas mark 10, 500°F (250°C). Deep frying pans become shallow casseroles and transfering food from one heat source to another can now be done at ease. Other ranges with fixed handles are also designed to withstand higher than usual temperatures with some ranges also offering a selection of pans with stainless steel handles. All ranges come with lids making SKK one of the most versatile pan manufacturers in the world.

SKK comes recommended than no-less an authority than world renowned chef Delia Smith. She said of SKK

"SKK pans are made in Germany from heavy-gauge aluminium but with a non-stick titanium surface 40 times harder than stainless steel. So, at last, high heat, no problem; metal utensils, no problem. Expensive, but one purchase is for life, so cheaper than a long line of dismal failures. All the pans have lids and even the handles can withstand an oven temperature of up to gas mark 10, 500°F (250°C) so the frying pan can double up as a shallow casserole or a roasting tray."

The SKK brand has been recognised worldwide as one of the most practical and durable cooking utensils. It was listed in the Independent Newspapers Top 50 Cooking Utensil survey refering to SKK as "The Best-ever range of non-stick pans". Whether you are a proffessional Chef, a gifted home cook or if you just want the best at the right price it is almost impossible to beat SKK for quality, versatility, value and design.

Skk Pans are not recommended for the dishwasher but clean with ease by hand using a good quality detergent. All pans come with a 5 year warrenty.

SKK pans were recently the subject of a "Which Survey" and were recommended as a "Which Best Buy" Which reported the following observations:

• Heat distribution on both hob types is excellent and it cooks quite quickly and evenly on both gas and electric hobs, impressing especially on solid electric.
• The SKK is very slightly on the heavy side at 1.2 kilos, but it feels very well balanced.
• On the hob, it's very stable indeed, and the grooved, plastic handle is easy to grip. Like the Jamie Oliver Best Buy, you can put this pan in the oven right up to 260 degrees Celcius.
• Feels stable and balanced, nice to handle.
• Cooking speed/evenness (gas) - GOOD
• Cooking speed/evenness (electric) - GOOD
  
• Non-stick coating - Excellent
• Handle comfort - Excellent
• Weight and balance - GOOD
• Ease of cleaning - Excellent
• Durability - GOOD
