Sort of. There's ceramic in the coating, but it's a minor component. More specifically, the coating is referred to as sol-gel ceramic. https://en.m.wikipedia.o

- nate_meurer 8y agoI think you're confusing ceramic coatings with reinforced PTFE coatings, which may sometimes contain ceramic particles. Actual ceramic coatings for cookware contain no PTFE at all. For example, premium PTFE coatings such as GMM's Duramax and Whitford's Eclipse are internally reinforced with hard materials of some sort. However these are not marketed as PTFE-free, because obviously they aren't. On the other hand, a ceramic coating that's advertised as PTFE-free, such as Thermolon (which is used in GreenPan) is completely free of fluorinated chemicals.
