Enjoy a new pleasure of cooking

CERAN^® is the brand name for glass-ceramic cooktop panels by SCHOTT. Developed specifically for use in the kitchen, CERAN^® cooktop panels make cooking a completely new experience. They have been developed to stand up to the daily wear and tear and are particularly distinguished by their high heat transmission and low thermal expansion. The smooth, non-porous surface is easy to clean and helps maintain your cooktop panel in excellent condition for a long time to come. Beautifully designed and technically perfect, your CERAN^® cooktop panel adds to the attractive appeal of your kitchen.

What are CERAN^® cooktop panels made of?

CERAN^® cooktop panels, manufactured by SCHOTT in Mainz, are made of a special glass-ceramic, a material with fascinating properties. This glass-ceramic has extraordinary thermal stability and resists thermal shocks of up to +700°C. CERAN^® stands up to everyday wear and tear in the kitchen. The four- millimeter thick CERAN^® cooktop panel transmits heat very efficiently, with virtually no heat loss.

Glass-ceramics were originally developed by SCHOTT for mirror blanks for astronomical telescopes and have proved their worth there and in many other technical applications over several decades.
