From Frustration to Creation: The Problem with Common Pots
How many times has this happened to you? You're making a risotto with love, but the rice sticks to the bottom in a specific spot. Try browning a steak to get that perfect crust, but the heat isn't uniform and the result is disappointing. You wash your favorite pan and notice that the bottom has warped, 'dancing' on the induction cooktop. These are not your failures, but your tools.
The Enemies Hidden in Your Kitchen:
- Heat Points (Hot Spots): Thin or poor quality bottoms distribute heat terribly, burning food in some areas and leaving it raw in others. Goodbye homogenous cooking.
- Deformation: Changes in temperature and weak materials cause the bottoms to sag. This not only makes the pot unstable, but it drastically impairs efficiency on induction and glass ceramic hobs.
- Limited Duration: Non-stick coatings that scratch and flake off after a few months, handles that come loose, steel that stains irretrievably. Low quality is expensive in the long run.
- Compromised hygiene: Riveted handles accumulate food debris and bacteria, which are difficult to remove completely.
Cooking should be a creative and relaxing act, not a constant battle against inadequate equipment. The good news is that there is a definitive solution, designed for those who take cooking seriously, whether they are a professional or a demanding enthusiast. This solution is called Demeyere.
Demeyere: Belgian Engineering at the Service of Flavor
For more than a century, Demeyere has been making uncompromising kitchen utensils. It is not simply a matter of assembling layers of metal, but of scientifically studying the cooking process for each specific preparation and creating the perfect tool for that task. Forget 'all-rounder battery'; Demeyere designs every piece - from the sauce pan to the frying pan - with specific construction technology to maximize performance.
'Cooking is a science. The right tools are the key to a successful experiment. '
The result is absolute temperature control, unparalleled energy efficiency and a lifespan measured in decades, not months. Let's see in detail the technologies that make these pots unique in the world.
The Science Behind Culinary Perfection
7-Layer Material (7-Ply)
The beating heart of every Apollo piece. A very pure aluminum core, sealed between layers of stainless steel and special alloys, extends from the bottom to the edge. This means that the heat doesn't just rise from the bottom, but it spreads instantly and perfectly evenly throughout the pot. The result? Total temperature control, delicate cooking without the risk of burns and incredible responsiveness to changes in the power of the stove.
Silvinox® treatment
Why do Demeyere pans stay as shiny as new even after years of intensive use? The secret is Silvinox®, a unique electrochemical system that removes surface impurities from steel. This not only guarantees a silvery-white finish that does not yellow and does not dull, but it makes the surface incredibly easy to clean, more resistant to fingerprints and hygienically superior.
Functional Design
Every detail is thought out. The solid steel handles are welded, not riveted, for perfect cleaning and uncompromising hygiene. Plus, they stay cold longer. The spill edges are shaped to prevent drips and allow liquids to be decanted with surgical precision. The ruggedness is tangible: these pans are built to withstand professional kitchens and last a lifetime.

Tips for Use and Maintenance: A Love That Lasts a Lifetime
A Demeyere tool is a companion for life. With a few simple attentions, it will keep its performance and beauty unchanged over time.
- Never thermal shocks: Allow the pot to cool before placing it under cold water to avoid deformation.
- Hand wash or dishwasher: Thanks to Silvinox®, they are perfectly dishwasher-safe. For stubborn dirt, let the pot soak with warm water and soap.
- Eliminate stains: White spots (limestone) or rainbow (starches) are normal. They go away easily with a sponge soaked in white vinegar or lemon juice. For tougher residues, Demeyere's specific stainless steel cleaners will make your pots look like new.
- What to avoid: Never use abrasive metal scrubs or bleach-based detergents, which would ruin the Silvinox® finish.
