Copper-clad stainless steel: Revere Ware's early cookware featured a construction known as "copper clad." This combined the excellent heat conductivity and cooking properties of copper with the durability and ease of maintenance of stainless steel. The core of the cookware was made of copper, with a thin layer of stainless steel bonded to the exterior surface. This provided the benefits of both metals while mitigating the drawbacks associated with using pure copper cookware, such as potential tarnishing and reactivity with acidic foods.
Later Revere Ware:
Stainless steel: In later years, Revere Ware shifted to producing cookware made entirely of stainless steel. Stainless steel is a durable, corrosion-resistant material that is easy to clean and maintain. It provides good heat conductivity, making it suitable for various cooking tasks.
Aluminum:
Some Revere Ware cookware is made of aluminum. Aluminum is a lightweight, conductive metal that is efficient at distributing heat evenly. It is commonly used in cookware for its affordability, durability, and non-reactive properties.
Additional materials:
In addition to copper, stainless steel, and aluminum, Revere Ware has incorporated various other materials into its cookware designs, such as:
Ceramic: Revere Ware has produced ceramic-coated cookware that combines the non-stick properties of ceramic with the durability and versatility of metal cookware.
Granite: Some Revere Ware cookware features a granite coating, which provides a scratch-resistant, non-stick surface for cooking.
Hard-anodized aluminum: Revere Ware also offers cookware made of hard-anodized aluminum, which enhances the durability and scratch resistance of the cookware while preserving its excellent heat conductivity.
