Pan test

We at RePan.ch have thoroughly examined the Swiss pan market and analyzed more than 450 models. If you find the right pan, you will not only cook better – but also healthier, more efficiently and with more pleasure. Our 2025 pan test will help you make the perfect choice, taking into account design, coating, stove type and personal preferences.

Types

1. simple sheet pans

  • Advantages: Inexpensive
  • Disadvantages: Irregular heat distribution, warps quickly, poor coating adhesion, loosening handles
  • Cooking like this hardly makes you want to

2. aluminum pans with induction base

  • Advantages: Good heat conduction, lightweight
  • Differences:
  • Pressed: Perforated plate at the bottom – often unreliable for induction
  • Cast-in: Better contact, but often a weak point in the coating

3. pans with sandwich base

  • Combines several metal layers in the floor
  • Very good heat distribution, robust
  • Disadvantage: The melted plate tends to come loose with the powerful induction hobs in the catering trade

4. pans with capsule base

  • Heat conducting core is completely enclosed
  • Durable & effective for all types of stoves

5. multilayer material pans

  • Whole pan made from 3, 5 or even 7 layers of metal
  • Premium quality, even heat – popular in the catering trade

Introduction

Coatings

The renewed coating is the real heart of our pans, which is why we apply a high-quality coating.
The quality of the coating is normally only found in the high-price and gastro segment, which is why our coating is often even better than new. It consists of three layers. Firstly, a primer that provides a stable hold. Secondly, a hardening middle layer. And thirdly, a non-stick coating made of PTFE, commonly known as Teflon.
This unique material is characterized by the fact that it prevents the food from sticking and is very inert, i.e. it does not react with food or our bodies.

Hand-picked quality

All the pans that RePan offers are of the highest quality. Even we don’t revive cheap discount pans made from inferior materials and are therefore not available from us.

When selling our pans, we pay attention to the following quality criteria: Materials, pan core, weight and design.

The four quality standards

When you buy a RePan, you get standardized quality.

Thin aluminum pan

We don't even tackle this - it's not worth it. Cheap pans that are too light and made of cold-pressed aluminum are not made to last. They distribute the heat inadequately, form hotspots and deform in the dishwasher due to the alkaline environment. Do you want to cook without worries and not use cheap Asian pans? Then switch to a RePan.

Qualitative and robust

Firstly, there is a pan core, which is made of copper, steel or aluminum. This conducts the heat evenly and complements the induction function. Secondly, robust cast aluminum or stainless steel as the base material. Thirdly, exterior paint, loose handles and crooked floors are subjected to our service package.

Better material and design

Better materials were selected for the production of a branded pan. They offer more durability and better heat distribution. The design is often more elegant and holistic.
