We chose 18/8 (304) stainless steel because it combines food safety and long-term resistance: It does not oxidise and prevents corrosion. As stainless steel is a little less conductive than aluminium, we have added a double aluminium layer on the base of our saucepans and frying pans in the MH500 range. This diffuses the heat and increases heating efficiency, reducing the amount of gas needed to cook.

We have chosen a PTFE Xylan + coating by the brand Whitford for its non-stick/durability/price balance and because it is adapted to thin layers of metal (which isn't the case for ceramics).This coating does not contain PFOA-based glue and is suitable for cooking foods.And as with all coatings, we recommend that you avoid using metal cutlery or utensils, to avoid damaging the coating.

Polyamide (cutlery and handle), polypropylene (plates, mugs), Tritan (lid) and silicon (table mat) were chosen because they are lightweight and heat-resistant (even up to 100°C), knocks and distortion.All our plastics in contact with food are Bisphenol-A free (BPA) in compliance with current French regulations.However, do not place the plastic in direct contact with a flame, or it may melt.

Our cook sets are compatible with all types of fires (wood, gas, induction, etc.).The frying pan has a retractable handle that locks (unlocks) by pushing (pulling) the metal piece positioned in its centre.The lid fits the saucepan and frying pan and also serves as a strainer. Striations are provided on this lid in order to hold it without getting burnt.The plates have a structured design on the bottom limiting heat transfer.

To optimise total size and reduce noise during transport, we suggest you store the parts away in the following order:Cutlery fixed on the lid, mugs and plates in the saucepan. The trivet locks the set and the cover enables you to carry everything, even if dirty.If you’re in a hurry, or you aren't great at tidying away, you can also place all the parts in the saucepan (it’s just noisier and less optimised!).

Before the first use, rinse all the items 3 times with clean water.After use, wash the items with soapy (preferably hot) water and dry them before storing them in a dry place.All items are dishwasher safe, however it is advisable to wash your saucepans and frying pans by hand (to preserve the coating). Also avoid abrasive sponges or sand when cleaning the inside of utensils.

To avoid damaging them, never heat your saucepan or frying pan when empty.When using with a wood fire, make sure that the flames do not directly touch the plastic parts.Do not use metal utensils with non-stick coatings. If you carry things in your cooking set that may damage the coating, place them in a bag or piece of cloth.Finally, always lock the frying pan handle when you use it.

All of our products and materials meet current food contact standards and do not contain Bisphenol A (BPA) in compliance with current French regulations.

The pan, which is graduated to help you measure volumes and quantities.The plates have a loop to hang them up and dry them fasterThe silicone table mat also doubles up as a strap to keep the cooking set closed once everything is tidied away.And finally, the cover lets you keep your cooking set separate from your other belongings in your bag!

From the very beginning, we wanted to design a product that lets you take everything with you to cook and eat outside, while staying clean and practical to use.What next? Many people are involved at each design stage, 3D modelling, tests with experienced and novice users, lots of emotion and finally, a product that makes us proud: a "turn-key" cooking set, simple to carry and use so that you can use it stress-free in the outdoors.

"When out hiking, one of our passions is cooking. Even outside, you can cook much more than just pasta. And why not pick your food during the hike. Finally, it’s easy to cook and that's what we wanted to achieve with this cooking set: we wanted to make hikers' lives easier. Food taste different when you eat outside. We appreciate dishes differently."
