For traditional cooking with normal quantities of
oil or butter, Futura Hard Anodised Cookware presents the ideal cooking
surface. Foods that need to be crisp or browned will cook fast and
well. Cooking that uses sufficient water or other cooking liquids
will also do well in Futura Hard Anodised Cookware. Hard anodising was first developed by Russian scientists to produce a metal surface tough enough for space travel. The same technology is now used by Futura to make its Hard Anodised cookware. Through a process of electrolysis at sub-zero temperature using a high intensity electric current, a 60 micron thick layer of aluminium oxide (Al2O3) is formed molecule by molecule as an integral part of the metal. This process produces a surface harder than steel with wonderful properties for cooking.  The Hard Anodised surface is non-toxic, non-staining and non-reactive with foods. It is thermal-efficient, heats fast and evenly and is not spoiled by high heat. It is tough and durable, will not tarnish or corrode and will stay looking new for years. Metal ladles can be used. Under the terms of a written guarantee included in each carton, Futura Hard Anodised Cookware is guaranteed for five years. |
