Product Description



What SCHOTT CERAN® is made of!

SCHOTT CERAN® manufactured in Mainz is made of a special glass-ceramic , a material with fascinating qualities: This glass-ceramic is resistant against abrupt temperature shocks up to 750 °C. SCHOTT introduces the eco-friendly glass-ceramic panel that does not contain the toxic heavy metals arsenic and antimony. It mainly consists of quartz sand that occurs in nature in nearly inexhaustible quantities.

CERAN® cooktop panels are very robust and therefore very long-lasting. There are several laboratory tests that prove their great mechanical strength. They withstand relevant higher impact loads than international standards demand. Because of a low transverse heat conductivity of CERAN® cooktop panels neighbouring areas of the cooking zone stay relatively cool and the heat is transmitted directly to pots and pans.

Glass-ceramic from SCHOTT was originally developed for mirrors in astronomic telescopes by SCHOTT and has proved in a variety of technical applications over decades.
