Use & Care
Certainly. While the scratches pose no threat and won't affect the cookware's performance, we recommend employing silicone or other utensils compatible with nonstick surfaces to maintain the pristine condition of your cooking surface. To avoid potential damage, refrain from cutting or chopping food directly in the pan. Additionally, we advise against using an electric beater or immersion blender; opt for a silicone whisk or other utensils suitable for nonstick surfaces instead. With some tender loving care, your Swiss Diamond cookware is sure to endure for a lifetime! For further details, refer to the comprehensive Use & Care Instructions.

No, we do not recommend marinating or storing food in Swiss Diamond nonstick cookware. Extended contact with acids found in marinades, tomato sauces, and certain foods may lead to the breakdown of the coating over time. While cooking with sauces and acidic foods poses no problem, prolonged exposure during marination or storage can cause damage. Foods high in acid or alkaline content, such as tomatoes, citrus fruits, sodas, coffee, cheeses, and peppers, fall into this category. For marinating or storing food, we advise using glass storage containers as a precautionary measure before or after cooking.

Experience the pinnacle of craftsmanship with our premium stainless steel cookware. Each piece is meticulously crafted by stamping a single sheet of stainless steel, an induction base plate and an aluminum core. The 18/10 body, aluminum core and 18/0 base undergo a high-temperature process to seamlessly fuse all three layers into one. Using bonded, encapsulated base technology ensures even distribution of the core throughout the encapsulation. With a formidable force of 16-20,000 tons, the production process guarantees a permanent bond between the base and the cookware body. The superior advantage of impact bonding lies in the consistent evenness of the core.
Certainly. Gray marks and residue are common concerns with any cookware when washing/placing in a white cast iron sink. According to Kohler, a renowned cast iron sink manufacturer, these marks occur when pots, pans or metal objects contact the sink's surface, leaving a gray mark. This residue is not embedded but rests on the sink's surface. Kohler suggests preventing this by using a non-slip mat or stainless steel rack at the sink's bottom. Gently placing items in the sink, instead of dropping or sliding them in, is also recommended. While typical cleaners usually remove these marks easily, Kohler offers a Cast Iron Sink Cleaner designed for this purpose. This cleaner, combined with a wine cork, is recommended by Kohler for cleaning white enameled cast iron sinks and restoring shine.
Absolutely! We're proud to share that Swiss Diamond products have been tested and awarded the American Vegetarian Association (AVA) Certification for our nonstick cookware.

Distinguishing between Swiss Diamond Cookware lines is simple. If the bottom of the cookware appears completely flat without any recessed center, it is an induction-style pan. These pans contain a stainless steel base which is ferromagnetic. Testing can include placing a magnet to the base. Our Classic pieces are designed with a 1.5” recessed are in the center of the base. These pans are not ferromagnetic as they contain an aluminum base. For more details on each line, visit our Classic vs. Induction page.
