Material
Cast Aluminum – The Perfect Balance
Good cooking starts with the right feel in your hand. Cast aluminum combines stability and lightness into a perfect balance that you notice immediately. The pan feels comfortable in the hand, is robust enough for high temperatures, and at the same time light enough for daily use. This makes spontaneous dishes as effortless as elaborate favorite recipes. The extremely dense material reacts quickly, reliably, and precisely – exactly as you would want it to when cooking. The practical, stable pouring rim ensures drip-free pouring, while the high-quality surface enables health-conscious, low-fat frying. For a cooking experience that convinces from the start.
Imagine a succulent, slow-braised pot roast that falls apart tenderly and is infused with intense flavors – this is where the pan truly shines. Equally perfect for crispy fried vegetables or an aromatic ratatouille that makes you crave more.

Thermal Conductivity & Heat Distribution
When heat reaches exactly where it's needed, perfect results are created. The approx. 8 to 10 mm thick combination of cast aluminum and Akkutherm base ensures that heat is distributed quickly and evenly. This way, every piece of meat is browned uniformly, vegetables remain crisp, and nothing burns in isolated spots. The heat gently and controllably envelops the ingredients. This not only leads to better results but also to a more relaxed cooking experience. Cooking thus becomes precise, reliable, and simply delicious.
Gundel's cast aluminum pans are excellent heat conductors and protect the environment thanks to their short heating time and heat retention. Even if the pan is larger than the hotplate, the base conducts the heat evenly to the rim. This leads to uniform browning and crust formation of the food being fried.

Natural & Powerful
Cooking should be simple – and that's exactly how it feels here. Thanks to the mineral-reinforced surface, ingredients glide effortlessly through the pan. A fried egg slides onto the plate as if by itself, fish stays juicy and tender. At the same time, the surface is PFOA and PFAS-free and stands for a conscious cooking experience. Less fat, less effort, more taste. Healthy cooking is truly enjoyable!
All of our products are free from PFOA (perfluorooctanoic acid) and free from PFOS (perfluorooctanesulfonate)!
Advantages:
- No sticking of food
- Health-conscious and fat-free frying
- Always hygienic and clean
- Prevents dirt and bacteria
- Easy cleaning

Application
For Beginners & Professionals Alike
Whether it's a quick weeknight meal or an ambitious menu: this pan makes it easier. The even heat distribution ensures that dishes reliably succeed. Mistakes such as uneven searing or burning are reduced. At the same time, there's enough room for creative and demanding recipes. This creates a cooking experience that combines safety and freedom. For everyone who loves good food.

State-of-the-art induction technology
The heat is generated exactly where it's needed – directly in the base of the pan. This means it reacts instantly to any change, giving you full control when cooking. Whether it's quick searing or gentle simmering: every movement is precisely implemented. Energy is used efficiently, without unnecessary losses. This provides a modern, direct cooking experience. Almost as if the pan is thinking with you.
For this purpose, a ferromagnetic steel plate is inseparably cast into the pan base and interlocked.
All our pans and pots are therefore available for electric, ceramic, gas and halogen hobs and – for a small surcharge – of course also for induction hobs.

Consistency
Dimensional Stability – No Warping of the Base
A good pan keeps its shape – no matter how intensively it is used. Even at high temperatures, the base remains stable and lies perfectly flat on the hob. This means no energy is lost and heat is optimally transferred. This translates to consistent results, every single time. No wobbling, no uneven frying – just reliability. Exactly what you want for everyday cooking.
Our approximately 8 to 10 mm thick Akkutherm base is fan-turned using a special technique and is absolutely warp-resistant.
Advantages:
- Optimal energy absorption and heat distribution
- Ideal release of water and moisture from the pan base
Care
Easy Cleaning – Effortless cleaning in just a few steps
Thanks to the practical Gundel brush, pans and pots can be cleaned particularly easily and thoroughly. Even stubborn residues are gently removed – even directly in the still warm pan. The heat-resistant and dishwasher-safe brush ensures hygienic and comfortable cleaning in everyday life.
Flexibility
Removable Handles & Oven Safety
Some dishes simply require more options. Thanks to patented, removable handles, your pan transforms into oven-safe cookware in an instant – up to 260 °C. Searing, gratinating, finishing cooking: all in one vessel. This saves time, washing up, and opens up new creative possibilities. At the same time, the pan can be stored to save space. Flexibility that you immediately appreciate in everyday life.
