Made In
Seasoned Carbon Steel Frying Pan
Bare carbon steel with an oil seasoning and no coating. Cast iron safety in a lighter, faster pan.
Bare carbon steel pre-seasoned with shea nut and coconut oil, made in Sweden. Made without PFAS, PTFE, lead, cadmium, aluminum, and BPA, and it takes the high heat that stresses a coating.

About Made In
Made In is a direct-to-consumer cookware company founded in Austin, Texas, in 2017 by Chip Malt and Jake Kalick, whose family had been in the restaurant-supply business for generations. The brand works with established European and American factories and sells to professional kitchens as well as home cooks, with stainless clad, carbon steel, enameled cast iron, and nonstick lines.
Its carbon steel is made in Sweden and pre-seasoned with shea nut and coconut oil, and the brand publishes a made-without list covering PFAS, PTFE, lead, cadmium, aluminum, and BPA. Carbon steel is the uncoated, buy-once side of the range; Made In also sells PTFE nonstick, which this directory does not list, so check the line before you assume a Made In pan is uncoated.
