The Scanpan CLAD 5 Stockpot with Lid is intelligent cookware, made from high quality stainless steel and features Scanpan's 5 layer design for rapid heat distribution. The multi-layer fused construction of the Scanpan CLAD 5 Stockpot with Lid results in fast and even heat distribution throughout the body of the pan.

The aluminium layers are not limited to the base but extend right up the sides of the pan for optimal cooking results and unparalleled efficiency. A layer of 18/10 stainless steel is used for the interior of the Scanpan CLAD 5 Stockpot with Lid for maximum durability, while the outer layer is 18/0 stainless steel. The Scanpan CLAD 5 Stockpot with Lid also has permanently secured handles for strength and hygiene, and a sealed edge to prevent exposure of aluminium.
