COOKING UTENSILS. HOUSEHOLD COOKING UTENSILS FOR COOKING APPLIANCES AND OVEN COOKING UTENSILS. Part 2: Additional requirements for ceramic cooking utensils and glass lids

This technical document establishes supplementary requirements specifically tailored for ceramic cookware and glass lids intended for use in household cooking appliances and ovens. It focuses on defining safety, performance, and testing criteria necessary to ensure these materials function reliably under various thermal conditions encountered during daily kitchen operations. The scope addresses the unique properties of ceramics and glass, including resistance to thermal shock, mechanical durability, and compatibility with heating elements. By setting clear specifications for material quality and construction, the standard aims to minimize risks associated with breakage or failure during use. It provides guidance for manufacturers, testing laboratories, and regulatory bodies regarding the evaluation of ceramic pots, pans, and associated glass covers. The document serves as a reference for assessing compliance with essential technical conditions relevant to consumer safety and product longevity within the European framework for electrical and non-electrical appliances.
