WMF ProfiResist Cookware
MATERIALS
The main material, as in almost everything that WMF manufactures is 18/10 stainless steel. In the case of these Profi Resist it is a 3-layer composition: stainless steel interior, aluminum core and chrome-plated steel on the outside.
The main difference that we observe with respect to its little sister, the WMF Profi, is the honeycomb that we find in the upper part. This gives it (if possible) greater resistance and non-stickiness. With this honeycomb, even if we cut with a knife on the surface, we will never damage the non-stick steel.
The Profi Resist WMF can be used in all types of cooker, hob, you gas and induction. In addition, it is fully compatible with ovens. Make no mistake, it is not compatible with microwave ovens …
Thanks to manufacture the aluminum core and the exterior of chromed stainless steel, can withstand temperatures of up to 260 C °.
As we said, the products in the WMF Profi Resist collection have a laminated honeycomb bottom . This has a double function: to make the pan indestructible to any damage and to ensure non-stick for life.
Food can be prepared with just two drops of oil, which gives a better finish to meals and in a healthier way.
ANTI-ADHERENCE
Free of agents such as PFOA (perfluorooctanoic acid) and PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene), its non-stick capacity is provided by the stainless steel coating. This material makes it easy to clean, totally non-stick, and we can be sure it’s totally healthy.
Since it does not have the traditional non-stick finishes, it is not necessary to take special care in its maintenance. We could say that steel holds everything. This makes WMF Profi Resist pans one of the best alternatives to traditionally manufactured pans.
As we said, it is not necessary to cook with a large amount of oil, which undoubtedly helps to prepare healthier recipes. Nor should you worry about high temperatures, it is resistant up to 260ºC (much more than other types of pans). And since it does not have chemical substances in its coatings, it does not wear out or deteriorate.
Therefore, it is easier and healthier to cook with the WMF Profi Resist line of pans.
SPECIAL FEATURES
- Resistance per flag : its superior honeycomb type makes it extremely resistant. If stainless steel is tremendously resistant in itself, with this finish it is indestructible.
- Free of chemical release agents : WMF’s Profi Resist has outstanding release strength without the use of any PFOA or PTFE material and with the benefits of stainless steel pans.
- 3-Layer Stainless Steel : Prevents warping thanks to its aluminum core and chrome-plated steel exterior. It allows to distribute the temperature evenly and reach high temperatures quickly, resulting in greater energy efficiency.
- Avoid burns: it has great ergonomics thanks to its stainless steel handle.
- Lightweight Construction: Stainless steel pans will always be heavier than aluminum ones. However, the use of the aluminum core makes the manufacture of the WMF Profi Resist pans stand out for their lightness and easy handling.
ADVANTAGES OF THE WMF PROFI RESIST
- Resistance : we would say that you will not be able to damage it, unless you cut a sirloin with a chainsaw.
- It does not need special care : the high quality of materials make a long-lasting and easy-maintenance product.

- Compatibility : Ideal for any kitchen surface, including induction and oven.
- Energy efficiency : The stainless steel of the exterior allows it to acquire the temperature faster and keep it longer.
DISADVANTAGES OF THE WMF PROFI RESIST
- Be careful not to use abrasive cleaners, as they can degrade the quality of the chrome-plated steel on the outside.
- If you use the dishwasher, you should take into account that it should not be left wet for a long time since this moisture can cause stains to the pan. In practice, most modern dishwashers dry the utensils after the wash cycle.
- Retains heat long after use is finished. This can be a negative or a positive point!
