Fully clad tri-ply pots and pans remain the premium choice for home and professional chefs. By combining different grades of steel and aluminium, tri-ply pans put you in charge, showcasing technique and flavour in dish after dish.
So, what exactly is tri-ply cookware and what are its benefits?
Tri-ply Cookware – Three Cooking Materials in One
As the name suggests, tri-ply cookware is a marriage of three different metals. The inner and outer layers are different grades of stainless steel, sandwiching a heat-conducting metal such as aluminium or copper. Stellar's Eclipse cookware is designed with a blend of induction-ready stainless steel for the base, a high-flow aluminium core, and high-grade stainless steel for the lining of the pan.
Stainless steel is lightweight, durable and non-reactive, rightly earning its place in every high-end kitchen. But stainless steel alone is a relatively poor conductor of heat, leaving pans prone to hot spots and burning. Adding an aluminium core means tri-ply cookware benefits from exceptional heat diffusion, giving you all the benefits of both high-quality materials.
What are the Benefits of Tri-ply cookware?
Premium quality tri-ply cookware is the perfect choice for the passionate cook. The combination of exceptional performance and flawless aesthetics makes tri-ply the professional choice, and with good reason.
Here are just some of the benefits of investing in tri-ply cookware:
Advanced Heat Technology
Imagine a pan that both heats up and cools down quickly whilst using less energy. One that delivers a consistent thermal temperature for incredible results. In a tri-ply pan, heat doesn't just radiate evenly across the base. It also rises up the sides of the pan, heating the contents to a consistent temperature.
As the pans can be cooled down more quickly, Tri-ply is one of the most controllable cookware materials around, meaning you can rapidly reduce the heat should the food become too hot or start to burn.
Tri-ply's unparalleled combination of heat distribution from the aluminium core and stainless steel's heat retention eliminates hot spots for incredible performance.
In addition, this versatile cookware is equally at home with both gentle and intense heat allowing you to move your pans effortlessly between the hob and oven.
Stellar Eclipse cookware simplifies even the most advanced of kitchen tasks, from searing meat evenly to creating the smoothest of sauces that won't burn or catch on the pan.

Flawless Performance on all Hob Types
There are other reasons why tri-ply pans are the chef's choice. For example, aluminium is a reactive material that can give acidic ingredients like vinegar and tomatoes a metallic taste. However, by adding a layer of the finest food-safe stainless steel, your tri-ply cookware can handle pasta sauces, pickles and preserves without tainting the flavour.
In addition, tri-ply cookware delivers efficient and reactive heat distribution whatever your hob type. So, your pans make the best use of energy whether you prefer gas, electric, ceramic or induction cooking.
