STALGAST® stockpots and saucepans are grouped into two lines: PRO and EKO. PRO pots are thicker, more robust and built for very high temperatures, backed by a 5-year warranty; EKO pots are value-oriented for routine heat with lighter build and no 5-year warranty. Both use hygienic stainless steel with capsule bases for induction.
