How is Swiss Diamond Made?

Production Process All Swiss Diamond products are manufactured exclusively in Sierre, Switzerland, using a technologically advanced process:

1. Aluminum is melted in the on-site foundry and is then cast into suitable forms under very high pressure. The pressure-cast aluminum process used for Swiss Diamond cookware prevents warping for the lifetime of the product, unlike other cookware brands using spun or stamped aluminum. Cast aluminum also distributes heat evenly.

2. The molten aluminum is pressurized to remove bubbles and ensure proper filling of the molds. Each Swiss Diamond product is covered with a Limited Lifetime Warranty covering manufacturing defects.

3. To prepare the aluminum body for the coating and to ensure improved adhesion, the interior is sandblasted.

4. After sandblasting, a diamond surface layer is plasma-deposited on the interior of the cookware. This prevents contact of the aluminum with food even if the nonstick coating is damaged, and protects the cookware and coating from oxidation, ensuring the longest possible usage lifetime for the products.

Production Process (cont.) 4. The actual coating process utilizes a specially

developed robot to give each Swiss Diamond product three solid layers of nonstick coating. The patented coating, reinforced with real diamond crystals, provides a lifetime of superior performance. The coating is manufactured completely without PFOA.

5. The pan’s bottom is accurately trimmed. Combined with the cast aluminum construction that prevents warping, the perfectly flat base ensures that your cookware will never spin or become unstable on the cooktop.

6. In a final step, the handles are attached. Our unique method uses threaded handles on exterior bolsters rather than rivets, to prevent food build-up inside the pan that leads to bacterial growth.

7. The finished Swiss Diamond cookware is now ready to be shipped to home chefs around the world!

Nonstick Coating with Real Diamond Crystals

Swiss Diamond Products: Overview

2. Diamonds conduct heat better than metal, browning food for savory exterior

3. Diamonds are naturally nonstick, creating an excellent nonstick surface designed for oil-free cooking

Nonstick Coating with Real Diamond Crystals

Swiss Diamond Products: Overview

• Swiss Diamond uses a trade-secret nonstick formula

• PTFE-based

• Coating completely manufactured in Switzerland

• Reinforced with diamond crystals

• No PFOA

FYI: Teflon® Made by Dupont, Teflon® is also a PTFE-based nonstick. Swiss Diamond makes our own coating instead of using Teflon® or another brand. Many “green” and “ceramic” coatings also use PTFE, and there is no evidence that PTFE is unhealthy.

FYI: PFOA PFOA is a chemical formerly used in the production of PTFE-based nonstick coatings, including Teflon®. It was investigated by the EPA as a possible carcinogen. Swiss Diamond does not have PFOA in its products.
