DECADES OF AMERICAN CRAFTSMANSHIP

We're a family-owned manufacturer obsessed with building great stainless clad cookware. In fact, it's the only thing we've been making for over 40 years, so we've gotten pretty good at it.

over 40 years of american manufacturing

Running a quality-obsessed factory here in the USA is hard.

Why have we kept at it?


The

Product

By making these pans right here, we get full control over all the details and processes. If something isn’t up to our standards, we can improve it. We’re continually refining our manufacturing, ensuring that every pan is reliably high quality.

The

People

We’re a small team, a good portion of which has worked here for decades. These colleagues are our friends and neighbors, and our factory relies on their expertise, knowledge, and hard work to keep producing great products year after year.


3 generations

family-owned & operated

Making and selling cookware has been the Henn family business for decades. While our product has evolved over the years, our mission has not:

Make a great product, sell it at a fair price, and pay good wages to the American workers who build it. Our aim is to craft tools that help people fall in love with cooking at home.

our history of cookware

crazy good quality without the crazy high markup

There are a lot of options out there for premium stainless clad cookware. We've worked really hard to combine quality materials, experienced craftsmanship, and affordable prices, all while paying good wages to the American workers who build the product.

We believe in transparency in manufacturing & marketing. If you're going to trust us to make the tools you cook with, the least we can do is provide clarity around how our products are made, the materials we use, and what your purchase helps support.

When you buy from us, the vast majority of your purchase goes to pay for the quality materials and experienced craftsmanship we put into the product. You're supporting a small family-owned business, not some massive corporation's bottom line.

All-Clad uses very specific language around where their cookware is made, saying that their cookware is "bonded, engineered & assembled in USA", but do not use the wording "Made in USA". This is likely because the US Federal Trade Commission has very strict guidelines around when a manufacturer can claim that a product is "Made in USA".

In our case, we use the "Made in USA with Global Materials" statement. The FTC calls this a "qualified statement," which is necessary given that some of the materials we use in manufacturing are imported.

For All-Clad, however, they seem to consciously avoid any type of Made in USA statement, qualified or unqualified. Why is that? It's very hard to say.

If you want to nerd out on all kinds of information about Made in USA claims you can read through the full guidelines from the FTC.

Your cookware never disappoints!!! I’m now so spoiled by performance and quality that I don’t want to use anything else! I’ve been slowly replacing every piece of cookware in my kitchen! Thank you for your exceptional service also!

Awesome cookware. I absolutely love heritage steel pots and pans. I just added the 13.5 inch wok to my collection and it cooks so well. Even heating and faster cooking than my non stick wok. I am so glad I bought this.

Solid, and beautiful construction. Follow the instructional video on how to use the cookware, and cooking/cleaning is easy. I have saute'd omelets and vegetables and they actually taste better than when I cooked on my non-stick pans.

I’ve only tried the frying pan so far but I’ve cooked an omelette and fried eggs twice and they didn’t stick even a little!! I’m so shocked I was so nervous to switch from non stick but so happy I made the switch for healthier cooking! These are the most stunningly beautiful pans I’ve ever seen and love that it’s a family company and American made. Thank you!!

I have been wanting a stainless steel pan for years but have always been nervous about caring for it and the possibility of food sticking. After watching several videos of Heritage Pans on social media I decided to finally make the purchase. Best decision ever! I have made eggs (fried and scrambled), chicken breast, steaks and scallops. A short pre-heat of the pan and a little oil or butter and nothing has stuck. Everything came out great. Very easy cleanup after as well!! Can’t wait to buy another Heritage Pan.
