Sophie Brooks – Chef Tools View Profile →

  • Pro: Superb non-stick performance reduces oil use and  food waste.
  • Con: It's hand-wash only, so not ideal for kitchens relying on dishwashers.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Corner Nook Bistro in Chester was struggling to manage a sharp increase in gluten-free meal requests. Their old system of using stickers on pans was proving unreliable during busy periods, leading to near-misses with cross-contamination.

"We used to have a complicated sticker system for our allergen pans. The Hygiplas purple handle made it foolproof. The chefs can grab it and  go, knowing it's the right one. It's simplified our whole process and  given us peace of mind."

Mark Jennings – Head Chef

The bistro completely eliminated allergy-related order errors and  reported that their 'free-from' cooking process is now 20% faster.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before first use, wash the pan with warm, soapy water and  a soft cloth to remove any residues from manufacturing.
  • For best results, lightly season the pan by wiping a thin layer of cooking oil on the surface and  heating gently for a couple of minutes.
  • Let it cool completely, then wipe away any excess oil. It's now ready for action.
  • Ensure your hob surface is clean and  dry before placing the pan on it.

Keeping It Going

  • Always allow the pan to cool down before washing to prevent warping.
  • Hand-wash only. Dishwashers use harsh detergents that can degrade the non-stick coating over time.
  • Avoid using metal utensils or abrasive scourers; stick to wood, silicone, or nylon tools.
  • Store by hanging it from the handle's hook to prevent other items from scratching the surface.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Frying Pan

Not sure which pan is right for your kitchen? Here are a few things to consider before you buy.

Material Matters

Aluminium heats up fast and  evenly, which is great for quick cooking. Stainless steel is a durable workhorse, while cast iron offers brilliant heat retention for searing. Choose based on your primary cooking needs.

Handle with Care

For commercial use, riveted handles are the strongest and  most reliable option. They won't loosen over time. A comfortable, heat-resistant grip is a must for a busy service.

Size It Up

A 20-24cm pan is perfect for individual portions like eggs or omelettes. A larger 28-32cm pan, like this one, is much more versatile for sautéing vegetables, cooking proteins, or making pan sauces.

Check Hob Compatibility

This is crucial! Always make sure the pan you're buying is compatible with your hob type. If you use induction, you need a pan with a magnetic base, otherwise it simply won't heat up.

The Non-Stick Factor

A quality coating like Teflon Platinum Plus saves time on cleaning, reduces the amount of oil you need, and  prevents delicate foods like fish or eggs from breaking apart.

Consider Colour Coding

If you handle allergens, a dedicated commercial frying pan purple handle isn't just a nice-to-have, it's a key part of your food safety management system, protecting both your customers and  your reputation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this frying pan oven-safe?

A: No, the handle is not designed for high oven temperatures. This pan is intended for hob use only.

Q: Can I use metal utensils on the Teflon coating?

A: It is strongly advised not to. To preserve the high-performance Teflon Platinum Plus coating, you should always use wooden, plastic, or silicone utensils.

Q: What does the purple handle signify?

A: In professional UK kitchens, purple is the designated colour code for equipment used exclusively for preparing foods for customers with allergies, helping to prevent cross-contamination.

Q: Will it definitely work on my induction hob?

A: Yes, absolutely. This pan features an induction-compatible base and  is designed to work efficiently on all major hob types, including gas, electric, and  induction.

Q: How heavy is this pan to handle?

A: It weighs 1.43kg. This gives it a solid, sturdy feel for even heat distribution, but it's still light enough to manage comfortably during a busy shift.

Q: What is the capacity of the pan?

A: It has a capacity of approximately 1.5 litres, which makes it very versatile for creating sauces, wilting greens, or cooking single main portions.

Q: Is it really not dishwasher safe?

A: That's correct. It is hand-wash only. The harsh chemicals and  high temperatures in a commercial dishwasher will damage the non-stick surface over time.

Q: What is the main benefit of the aluminium construction?

A: Aluminium is an excellent heat conductor. This means the pan gets up to temperature very quickly and  distributes the heat evenly across the cooking surface, eliminating hot spots.

More Than Just Non-Stick: The Teflon Platinum Plus Advantage

Ever wondered what makes a 'commercial grade' non-stick coating different? It's all about durability. The Teflon Platinum Plus frying pan coating isn't just a single layer; it's a sophisticated three-layer system designed to withstand the rigours of a professional kitchen.

Think of it like the difference between a standard coat of paint on a wall and  the tough, multi-layered finish on a car. Standard non-stick is a single layer that can scratch easily with metal utensils or heavy use. Teflon Platinum Plus, however, has a special primer, a reinforced mid-coat, and  a super-slick top-coat. This structure makes it far more resistant to abrasion and  scratches, meaning it stays genuinely non-stick for much, much longer, even when you're using it all day, every day.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Restaurants & Bistros: Perfect for preparing 'free-from' dishes safely without cross-contamination, ensuring guest confidence and  compliance.
  • School & Care Home Kitchens: A vital tool for managing multiple dietary needs and  serious allergies with clear visual cues.
  • Busy Cafes & Delis: Ideal for whipping up breakfasts and  lunches on an induction hob with minimal clean-up time afterwards.
  • Vegan & Health Food Eateries: Keep plant-based dishes strictly separate with this dedicated commercial frying pan purple handle.
