DuPont Teflon
®
- Platinum Pro with
ScratchGuard ™ Non-Stick Coating
Your Sunbeam Café Contact Grill and Sandwich
Press features DuPonts' toughest non-stick
coating produced to date - Platinum Pro with
ScratchGuard.
DuPont is the world leader in non-stick coatings
with the introduction of Teflon dating back to
1938. Today more than 2 billion households
have Teflon non-stick coated cookware.
Teflon Platinum Pro is a premium 3 layer non-
stick coating. It features special scratch resistant
minerals causing metal utensils to slide over
these particles without damaging the Teflon
matrix.
This preserves the release properties of the
non-stick coating during the life of the Café
Contact Grill and Sandwich Press.
The end result is a non-stick coating that can be
treated like ordinary cookware, enabling the use
of metal utensils such as
spatulas and spoons,
but not sharp utensils.
So tough is the new
Teflon Platinum
Pro coating
that it is up to
10 times more
scratch resistant
than other
non-stick coatings*.
The image show
here is an example
of the performance
of Teflon Platinum
Pro against an
'other' non-stick
coating. Each surface
has undergone 5 cycles of
the DuPont In-House Abuse Test.
The Teflon Platinum Pro only has some surface
scuffing, whereas the 'other' non-stick coating
has deteriorate badly.
* The images shown here and performance
claims are based upon the DuPont In-House
Cooking Abuse Test used to evaluate scratch
resistance and release properties of non-stick
coatings.
**NOTE: The DuPont Teflon
®
Platinum Pro with
ScratchGuard ™ is only available on certain
models.
