26cm Stainless Steel Deep Baking Pan – nöni™ | Australian-Made Oven-to-Table

The 26cm Stainless Steel Deep Baking Pan from the nöni™ range by Solidteknics is a deep, dual-handle oven-to-table pan manufactured in Sydney, Australia. With an 8.5cm bowl depth and 3.5-litre capacity in a compact 26cm footprint, it’s sized for pasta bakes, lasagne, smaller roasts, layered tray dinners and the saucy, liquid-rich cooking that shallower baking pans can’t contain. Compact dual handles curve down to maximise oven space and make it easy to move from oven to table. It is a coating-free, PFAS-free, non-nickel stainless steel pan built to deliver multi-generational service across every modern heat source.

Material and Construction

The 26cm nöni™ Deep Baking Pan is wrought from a single 3mm-thick sheet of highly conductive non-nickel stainless steel. The alloy is non-nickel and contains no synthetic coatings — no PTFE, no PFOA, no PFAS — and no aluminium core. Because the pan is wrought in one piece, there are no rivets, screws, welds or joins between the cooking surface and the dual handles. This seamless one-piece construction removes the common failure points of traditional baking pans and leaves a smooth interior with no crevices for food residue or pan juices to trap.

A precision-engineered concave is built into the base. As the steel heats and expands, the base flattens for stable, even contact with the cooktop — standard for quality heavy-gauge iron and steel cookware.

Heat Source Compatibility

The 26cm nöni™ Deep Baking Pan is fully induction-compatible and performs across every cooktop and heat source, including:

• Induction cooktops
• Gas burners
• Electric coil and radiant ceramic
• Halogen
• Domestic and commercial ovens (handles designed to fit a standard 600mm oven)
• BBQs and grills
• Pizza ovens
• Open campfires and outdoor flames

The high conductivity of the wrought stainless construction means the pan heats quickly and retains heat efficiently. Most cooks find medium heat replaces what they previously called high — translating to lower energy use over the working life of the pan.

Dimensions and Capacity

• Cooking diameter: 26cm (measured at inner top rim)
• Bowl depth: 8.5cm
• Stove contact surface: 21cm
• Total length (including dual handles): 36cm
• Weight: 1.6kg
• Capacity: 3.5 litres
• Material thickness: 3mm

Compact dual handles curve down rather than extending outward, maximising the usable oven space inside a standard 600mm domestic oven.

Use Cases

The deeper profile of the 26cm Deep Baking Pan suits the wetter, layered and saucy dishes that shallow baking pans struggle with:

• Lasagne, pastitsio, moussaka and baked pasta
• Tray bakes — sausages, vegetables, traybake chicken
• Smaller roasts — chicken pieces, pork loin, rolled lamb
• Slow-cooked stews and casseroles
• One-pan curries, biryanis and dahls
• Soups, stocks and simmered sauces
• Stovetop-to-oven dishes that need depth for liquid
• Oven-to-table service for couples and small families

The non-reactive stainless surface is fully compatible with acidic and liquid-based foods. It will not rust, will not strip seasoning, and will not impart metallic flavours to wine reductions, vinegars, citrus or tomato sauces.

Care and Cleaning

The 26cm nöni™ Deep Baking Pan is dishwasher safe and requires no seasoning. The seamless one-piece design means there are no joins to trap food residue or detergent. Each pan is stamped with the month and year of manufacture and is supplied with a calico storage bag.

What Differentiates This Deep Baking Pan

Most deep baking pans are either non-stick coated aluminium (scratches, warps, chips) or thin-gauge stainless with riveted handles and added nickel. The 26cm nöni™ Deep Baking Pan replaces both with a single sheet of 3mm wrought highly conductive non-nickel stainless steel, manufactured in Sydney, stamped with its month and year of production, and backed by a multi-century warranty. It is one of the only seamless, non-nickel, coating-free wrought stainless deep baking pans in this size class manufactured in Australia.
