Cookware

Most cookware found in Canada, such as pots and pans, are quite safe for everyday use, as long as they are used as intended and well-maintained. However, there are some products, such as kettles and other cookware that make their way onto the Canadian marketplace that have the potential to release materials harmful to health into the food we eat.

Health Canada works to ensure that all cookware is safe for use by regulating and monitoring certain products to make sure that they do not release harmful materials into the food that is cooked and served from them.
