The everyday favourite, polished smooth. A 26cm Polished AUS-ION™ frypan, smoother from first use with no seasoning to build, Australian-made.
Australia
The AUS-ION™ Polished 26cm Frypan is the next evolution of the most-loved everyday pan in the range: an Australian-made iron frypan crafted from a single solid sheet of Australian wrought iron and precision-polished for smoother cooking from the very first use. It hits the sweet spot for everyday cooking — eggs, sautéed vegetables, seared steak, oven bakes and more — with no coatings, no rivets and no seasoning break-in.
Where classic AUS-ION™ iron uses a fine surface texture to anchor seasoning over time, the Polished surface is engineered with fewer microscopic peaks and valleys for food to grab onto — oil spreads more evenly and food releases more easily, straight out of the box. It is not a coating, just precise polishing. No seasoning is required, the pan is easier to clean and more rust-resistant than traditional seasoned iron, and the exterior is factory-seasoned to protect against rust. Newcomers to iron get a friendlier start; experienced cooks get a new level of control — and a natural patina can still be built over time if preferred.
The pan is still seamless, one-piece wrought iron — no rivets, no welds, no coatings, no nonsense. It is naturally non-toxic with no synthetic coatings and no leaching, lighter and more responsive than cast iron, and finished with an ergonomic vented handle that stays cooler for longer. A carefully engineered concave in the base allows for metal expansion when heated.
The Polished 26cm Frypan is compatible with all heat sources: induction, gas, electric and ceramic cooktops, ovens, BBQs, pizza ovens and open flame. With no seasoning layer to strip away, it also handles acidic ingredients without harm — a small amount of iron transfer is possible, which may occasionally add a subtle metallic note to very acidic dishes.
Hand wash only: rinse with warm water (no soap needed), dry thoroughly, scrub the cooking surface in a circular motion following the grain of the polish, and wipe with a very thin layer of oil after each use. The polished surface dulls naturally with use — completely normal — and the shine can be restored anytime with a scourer or steel wool worked along the circular grain.
100% Australian made from clean Australian iron and manufactured in Sydney, the Polished 26cm Frypan carries the AUS-ION™ multi-century warranty — built to last for generations. It is the most versatile frypan in the Polished line-up and the easiest way into a lifetime of non-toxic iron cooking.
