The "Nano Emboss Frying Pan" has received approximately 47 million yen in purchases through crowdfunding.
Despite being made of tough iron, frying pans with nano-embossed surfaces are surprisingly light. They absorb oil well, are non-stick, and don't require seasoning, overturning the conventional image of iron frying pans.
This is a high-quality frying pan born in Tsubame-Sanjo, Niigata, a leading production area for kitchenware in Japan.

Regular frying pans have a smooth, flat surface punched out of an iron plate.
Cast iron frying pans, made by pouring molten iron, have an uneven surface, but the height differences are inconsistent. Both had issues with oil absorption and stickiness.
"Nano Emboss®︎" is a surface treatment that overcomes the challenges of both and incorporates their advantages.
*Nano Emboss®︎ is a registered trademark of Sugiyama Kinzoku Co., Ltd.

As the name suggests, by creating tiny irregularities that are invisible to the naked eye,
it achieves a smooth yet oil-friendly surface,
offering the benefit of being non-stick.
The finely uniform irregularities on the surface allow oil to spread evenly,
making it easy to release even sticky foods like fried eggs.



Even regular-sized iron frying pans often weigh well over 1kg,
but if they're too heavy to take out, it defeats the purpose.
Especially for something you use every day like a frying pan, this is even more true.
The "Nano Emboss Frying Pan" achieves an overwhelming lightness that allows you to easily hold it with one hand.




Frying pans with fluorine coating, known for their non-stick properties, can experience performance degradation due to the deterioration of the fluorine coating, and there are concerns about health risks when used at high temperatures or in a degraded state.
On the other hand, the "Nano Emboss" refers to irregularities and is not a coating.
Since the pan body is made of iron itself, there is no problem even if you scrub it with a metal scourer.
*The surface is coated with rust-preventive paint upon delivery. It will gradually wear off and has no adverse effect on the human body.


Proper preheating makes delicious food
The advantage of an uncoated iron frying pan is its ability to cook at high temperatures.
The key to preventing sticking and achieving delicious results is to properly preheat until a slight smoke rises before adding ingredients.
The delightful sizzle you hear when you place food in the pan is unique to iron frying pans, making cooking more enjoyable.

The Nano Emboss Frying Pan has a metal wire handle, making it highly durable.
Of course, it doesn't get hot easily, so you can use it with bare hands. (Please be careful not to expose the handle directly to flames.)
Unlike resin, it will not melt due to high heat, such as direct flame contact.
Because it's lightweight, you can hang it on suction cup or magnetic hooks, saving space.
This is a recommended storage method that allows you to grab it easily anytime.


Iron frying pans can be difficult to use and prone to sticking if not properly seasoned at the beginning.
The Nano Emboss Frying Pan does not require initial seasoning or burning.
It gradually improves with use, becoming so easy to use that you won't want to go back to fluorine-coated frying pans.
Initially silver, the pan absorbs oil with use, becoming even more non-stick. The change in appearance to a darker hue as it "matures" is also a delightful experience.

Cleaning after use is also very easy. Just scrub with a scouring brush without detergent and heat to evaporate any moisture. This will prevent it from rusting.
Please experience the long-lasting enjoyment unique to iron frying pans.
