Our advanced base material is a lightweight material with excellent heat conduction ability. The Ultralight (UL) alloy, also known as 5005, is 50 percent stronger than regular aluminum (alloy 1050). This allows the cookware to be made thinner and the stoves to be lighter without compromising on durability and functionality. This makes it suitable for many users who want a simple, functional, and durable stove.

Aluminum and Cooking

Aluminum is one of the most common metals in the Earth’s crust, making it widely used in many things around us. It is also a commonly used metal in kitchen utensils due to its lightweight and excellent heat conductivity. Aluminum is typically not harmful to health when used in cookware. What is recommended by the Swedish National Food Agency is to avoid cooking or storing acidic or salty foods for long periods in aluminum vessels, as they can react with aluminum and release small amounts of the metal into the food. Excessive exposure to aluminum linked to health issues has required extremely high levels of exposure over a very long time.

Things to keep in mind:

• Avoid cooking and storing acidic foods in aluminum vessels for extended periods of time.
• Maintain and care for your aluminum cookware to prevent scratches and damage that may increase the risk of metal release.
• Use cookware with coating, such as our Nonstick or Duossal pots, as an alternative to aluminum
