Frankfurt/Germany, 15. February 2013. After the successful launch of the DuPont™ Teflon® Colour Collection for pots and pans, the range of trendy colours – based on Europe-wide consumer surveys – is now extended to nonstick coatings for bakeware. From muffins and quiches to the traditional birthday cake: baking is just more fun, if colour is part of the game. Beautiful colours inspire and spark enthusiasm. Coloured bakeware is the perfect choice to wow guests when serving a delicious oven dish: potato gratin on ‘Lavender Blue’, a quiche on the classy ‘Champagne gold’ or a sweet crumble in ‘Hot Chilli’. And last but not least, these attractive colours will trigger the desire to try out new recipes.

Additional sales opportunities for manufacturers and retailers
In the diverse offering available on the bakeware market, coloured oven dishes open up new sales opportunities. The appealing look of the colour schemes ‘Hot Chilli’, ‘Champagne Gold’ and ‘Lavender Blue’ taps into a wide range of attractive customer segments: traditionalists with a taste for Mediterranean flavours, enthusiastic hosts, trendsetters, or upmarket gourmets. Sets of coloured bakeware are also suited for promotional and seasonal campaigns.

The robust quality of Teflon® Select
Frequently used ovenware is likely to be exposed to heavy mechanical stress and needs a particularly resistant surface. This is why DuPont offers its nonstick coating Teflon® Select for coloured oven dishes. Their excellent durability and long-term non-stick properties have been proven in intensive lab and real life tests. Thanks to the excellent food release properties of the nonstick coating, the ovenware offers easy serving and cleaning. It can even be put into the dishwasher.
