While traveling through Italy in 2014, our family stumbled upon a piece of cookware that completely changed the way we thought about cooking. We were captivated by the performance and elegance of Italian ceramic nonstick pans, something we had never experienced back home. Intrigued, this gave us the inspiration for an entirely new venture - designing a cookware line of our own. We began researching everything from ceramic coating technologies to sustainable manufacturing practices, determined to create a healthier, non-toxic high-quality option for American kitchens.
The following years were spent designing and developing our first product: the DaTerra Cucina 11” frying pan with lid for American kitchens, including our own. Coming from a family of restaurateurs, we aimed to preserve the gorgeous look of the Italian ceramic cookware while creating a durable pan that would perform professionally for home users. Over the next two years, the DaTerra Cucina cookware line was born featuring its high performing 5th generation nonstick ceramic coating, manufactured to offer both beauty and durability without the PFAS chemicals found in other nonstick cookware.
Later, beginning in 2023, DaTerra Cucina began launching a major upgrade from our proven 5th generation nonstick ceramic coating to our newly innovated 7th generation Sol-Gel nonstick technology, which is now featured in nearly all our cookware. This advancement delivers a 105% improvement in nonstick durability, over 60% better abrasion resistance, and superior protection against staining and corrosion. Just as importantly, with the 7th generation coating improvement, DaTerra Cucina introduced induction-compatibility for all stovetop cookware, allowing for greater versatility across all cooktops. While a few select pieces like the 13” wok and 13” frying pan are still completing the transition, this change reflects our dedication to continuous improvement and raising the standard for safe, high-performance cookware.
Today, DaTerra Cucina continues to remain passionately committed to redefining healthy cooking through continuous innovation and uncompromising quality. With the new proprietary 7th generation Sol-Gel ceramic coating, DaTerra delivers a truly non-toxic, PFAS-free nonstick surface, a safer, more eco-friendly alternative to traditional Teflon. Free from harmful chemicals like PTFE, PFOA, lead, and cadmium, each pan is thoughtfully engineered to protect your health while delivering professional-grade performance. Crafted in Italy with features like stay-cool silicone handles, oven-safe construction, and induction-compatible bases, DaTerra Cucina pans are built to last, perform beautifully, and help families cook with confidence.
