Because we have avoided adding any toxins² to our cookware, there are few care tips you need to follow to protect your beautiful new cookware! Make sure you visit our care page and watch the video here.

Blu. cookware is completely free from PFAS and BPS chemicals and the aluminium body is hard anodised, so while the performance of the pan may be affected when scratched, no harmful toxins will leach into your food. A game changer, right?!

To learn how to care for your Blu. cookware, please visit our care instructions.

Blu. Cookware is completely free of all PFAS and BPs and is hard anodised. This means that no harmful chemicals or toxins will be leached and no harmful fumes will be released while cooking with Blu. One thing to note though, as no toxins have been used in the non-stick surface, it can be 'cooked off' if high heats are used to cook with. Please visit our care instructions before using your beautiful, new cookware.

The colour change on the base of full induction cookware, can occur due to various factors such as heat exposure, food residue, or cleaning agents. To minimise colour changes and maintain the appearance of the induction cookware base, consider the following tips:

1. Avoid high heat for long periods

While stainless steel is generally resistant to heat, avoid cooking on excessively high heat for extended periods. Prolonged exposure to high temperatures can contribute to discolouration.

2. Use medium heat

Opt for medium to medium-high heat settings for most cooking tasks. This helps prevent the cookware from reaching extreme temperatures that may affect its appearance.

3. Prevent dry cooking

Avoid cooking in the cookware without any food or liquid, as this can lead to overheating and discolouration. Always ensure there is some form of food or liquid in the cookware when using it on the induction cooktop.

4. Remember to polish

Periodically, you can use a stainless steel cleaner or polish specifically designed for cookware to maintain its appearance. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the best results.

Blu. is 100% free from all PFAS and any BPA chemical compounds. It is also free of all harmful heavy metals.

The non-stick surface is free from harmful heavy metals like lead and cadmium. However, some metals make up the chemical composition of stainless steel of which our handle is made. These include sulphur, manganese, phosphorous and chromium but can be found in all stainless steel. When part of an alloy, the levels found are not considered hazardous.

All the aluminium used in making Blu. Cookware is made from 100% recycled materials. After the cookware is formed, each piece undergoes a carefully controlled, fast oxidation process. This process creates a stable and durable product by forming an aluminium oxide layer on the outside, which is fully integrated with the metal underneath. The resulting protective coating is incredibly resistant to corrosion and abrasion, comparable to diamond on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness. Pretty tough, hey?

Each piece of Blu. cookware is crafted from a single recycled aluminium piece. The aluminium is heated and shaped in a way that makes the cookware stronger, preventing warping and increasing durability compared to materials like cast aluminium or stainless steel (30% stronger). This forging process enhances heat conduction, ensuring even heating without hot spots. It also requires less energy to heat food quickly, preserving flavour, nutritional value, and integrity. Moreover, using forged aluminium cookware on all stovetops, including induction, is possible.

Blu. has a full induction base plate integrated into the product body (and not sprayed onto the surface). The full induction base means that the whole base is magnetic so there is an even and extra strong electromagnetic field between the pan and the induction cooktops. This results in faster heating times, precise temperature control and energy efficiency.

Blu. cookware can be used on all cooktops, not just induction.

Also known as perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances, PFAS refers to a group of over 4000 human-made chemicals that are used in all kinds of products for their water and grease-resistant properties. Common PFAS compounds include PFOA, PFOS and GENX, which are often used for their non-stick and water-resistant properties in cookware and waterproof materials like rain jackets (or even umbrellas!). Despite being phased out, these substances continue to be present in the environment, potentially posing health risks.

Coined by Harvard Public Health Professor Dr. Joseph Allan in 2018, the term “forever chemicals” refers to two primary groups: PFAS and BP (Bispheuols).¹ There are over 200 different BPs, such as BPA (you’ve likely heard of water bottles being BPA-free), BPB and BPAF. These are commonly used in plastics and are known for their hormone-disrupting effects.

While PFAS chemicals were designed for applications like non-stick cookware, they never break down and persist indefinitely in the environment and the human body, earning them the nickname “forever chemicals.” Created to enhance our lives (but ironically do quite the opposite!), these substances linger long after their intended use. So, Blu. is on a mission to reduce exposure to PFAS, one toxin-free cookware set at a time. You can thank us later.

PFAS can be found everywhere, from your kitchen to your bathroom, in various consumer products like cleaning products, firefighting foam and food packaging. They live in waterways, in the environment and even within our bodies. While it’s hard to completely avoid PFAS chemicals, we can limit our exposure levels by making more conscious choices – and yep, you guessed it, we can start by being a little more conscious about what we’re cooking (and the items we’re cooking with). Blu. cookware is the perfect starting point.

Certain PFAS have been associated with negative health impacts, such as developmental problems, liver damage and specific types of cancers. Ongoing research aims to comprehensively grasp the scope of these health risks. Recent findings indicate connections between these chemicals and diseases like cancer, thyroid imbalances, and others. There is also emerging evidence suggesting that heightened exposure to PFAS might substantially diminish the efficacy of routine childhood immunisations, such as those for tetanus and diphtheria.² What has been found recently is that these chemicals are linked to cancers, thyroid imbalances and several other diseases. There is also evidence that elevated exposure to PFAS may significantly reduce the effectiveness of routine childhood immunisations (ie. tetanus and diphtheria)³. So, it’s safe to say that avoiding these chemicals isn’t such a bad idea, after all.

Yes, PFAS can be detected in blood and other bodily fluids. Biomonitoring studies help assess human exposure levels and potential health risks.

PFAS chemicals primarily enter the environment through various pathways, including through drinking water, groundwater, soils, and air. Sources of contamination stem from fire training or response sites, industrial facilities, landfills, and wastewater treatment plants, leading to the production of biosolids. Additionally, PFAS can infiltrate the environment through the use of products containing these substances and the gradual breakdown of other PFAS over time.

PFAS are known for their persistence in the environment, and some forms can take years or even decades to break down.

Avoid using products that contain PFAS, such as certain non-stick cookware (the perfect alternative is Blu. cookware – free from all PFAS chemicals! Woohoo!), and be mindful of food packaging. If you live near an industrial site, you can regularly test your drinking water for PFAS, too.

Yes, PFAS contamination in drinking water has been reported in various locations globally, particularly near industrial sites or areas with heavy use of PFAS-containing products. ⁴

Treatment methods include activated carbon filtration, reverse osmosis, and ion exchange. Consult with water treatment professionals to determine the most effective method for your situation.

Some countries and regions have established guidelines or regulations for PFAS levels in drinking water. In Australia, the health authority in your state or territory is the authoritative source for precautionary health advice on PFAS. You can find out who your local health authority is by visiting the Australian Government’s PFAS Advice page. Your local health authority will be able to provide general advice on exposure and health effects, as well as information specific to local sites. The Australian Government Department of Health can also provide general advice on exposure and health effects.

Yes, some manufacturers are transitioning to alternatives that are less harmful to health and the environment. Look for products labelled as 100% PFAS-free or containing safer alternatives. Note - some brands call out 1 or 2 of the 1000s of PFAS chemical compounds (like PTFE free or PFOA free etc) and state that they are healthier/safer. They are often replacing the chemical compound with one of the other PFAS options which do the same job and have the same lasting impact on the environment and your health. Ensure to select 100% PFAS free products.
