All Clad hold many US patents related on bonded metals including bonded layered coins we use today. It has a rolling mill in Southwest Pennsylvania Today.

All-Clad 5000-9 Stainless 9-Piece Cookware Set

The bestseller among All-Clad’s renowned cookware collections, the Stainless line provides serious and professional cooks all the virtues that make All-Clad’s worldwide reputation unsurpassed. Key to its high performance is a three-ply, bonded construction. Sandwiched between layers of stainless steel is a thick core of pure aluminum that spreads heat evenly across the bottoms of pots and pans and all the way up the sides. The interior is highly polished 18/10 stainless steel, so it’s stick-resistant as well as stain- and corrosion-resistant. The exterior is gleaming, magnetic stainless steel that works on induction as well as conventional stovetops, and, with care, remains beautiful during this cookware’s lifetime warranty against defects–and beyond. This nine-piece set of Stainless cookware consists of a 10-inch fry pan, a 2-quart covered saucepan with lid, a 3-quart covered sauté pan, a 3-quart covered casserole pan, and a 6-quart covered stockpot. Polished 18/10 stainless-steel pan and lid handles are riveted for strength and grooved on the top for comfort. The pans’ long handles (holed for hanging on hooks or pegs) stay cool on the stovetop but won’t be harmed by an oven’s highest heat. Although Stainless cookware is dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended.

All-Clad Copper Core 7-Piece Cookware Set

All-Clad is NOT about expensive hype and status, those these pans are beautifully made, instead they do everything cookware should, and have literally changed the way I cook. Having attended CIA and worked as a professional chef for a few years, I know the golden rule for food not sticking: preheat pan, add oil, let the oil heat for 5-10 seconds, then add food. Using these guidelines with the Copper Core, nothing sticks! And I mean for some things, like omelets or fried eggs in the 10″ fry pan, the performance is as good as my brand new Calphalon Non Stick was; when you can just slide omelets and fried eggs out of the pan without ANY sticking at all, why would you ever need Nonstick or Teflon based products?

This quintessential cookware collection is the result of more than four decades of All-Clad ingenuity and artisanship. Copper-Core combines the ideal benefits of copper heat conduction with the cleaning ease of stainless steel. Because this formula is a carefully-guarded All-Clad innovation, no other cookware in the world can match the performance standards of its unique bonded design. Copper-Core is the premier All-Clad cookware collection, and is the choice of many of the worlds elite chefs and discriminating cooks. Set Includes: 10-in. Omelet Pan 2-qt. Covered Sauce Pan 3-qt. Covered Saute Pan 8-qt. Covered Stockpot.
