I'm looking for some new pans (maybe also have some pots from the same brand?) and wanted to get something from a european brand - and ask for recommendations here.

What they must have:

Induction compatible
Made in EU
Non-Stick Coating without PFAS (for the pans) (yes, I know but I very much enjoy cooking with them and am using wooden/plastic utensils)

What would be nice to have:

Removeable handle
Ceramic Non-Stick Coating (as it should last longer)

What I've found currently that mostly fits my needs are the Tefal Ingenio Black Stone ( https://www.tefal.de/p/ingenio-black-stone-3-teiliges-pfannen-set-l39990/2100126098 ) but I've not got any experience with Tefal at all, so I'm open to experiences + other recommendations.

Thank you all for your time, I hope you have a lovely day <3

Not made in EU, but made in Europe. I definitely recommend Spring, professional grade kitchen utensils (worth the money, in my opinion): https://www.spring-brandshop.com/en/

Portuguese made and also good quality: https://www.silampos2.pt/pt/?set=entrada

Also Portuguese made, but more affordable: https://loja.celar.pt/

spring is definitive good quality, but i'm pretty sure it's made in china. "swiss design".

happy when proven wrong :-)

I have a set of pots I bought a couple years ago and I think they were made in Germany, but I can't find the booklet anymore. I do hope you're wrong because otherwise I'll be very disappointed with myself 🥲

Edit: after searching a bit further, I found this (at least for some of their series):

Manufacturer: Spring International GmbH Höhenscheider weg 29 42699 Solingen Deutschland

But to be fair, this doesn't necessarily prove my point :(

Having one stainless steel spring pan: I endorse this, since that's easily my most used workhorse of a pan. If I ever need a pan again, I'll be looking at them again
