Fonderia Finco is a family run company that was first formed in 1945. The experience and business acumen of three generations of the family have led to the creation of a range of innovative cooking utensils for catering professionals and lovers of responsible, healthy cooking with an open-minded approach to the future but feet planted in tradition. The Ghisanativa® range of cookware is made of extremely pure cast iron. Every product is made entirely by Fonderia Finco at the company’s foundry near Padua in northern Italy. The key virtue of Ghisanativa® cast iron is the exceptional purity, because the non-stick surface is not reached by using complex of hazardous chemical compounds but by an exclusively physical treatment based on one of the healthiest and most typically Italian of foods: extra virgin olive oil. The “raw” cast iron pieces once cooled are heated again to very high temperatures in static oven. The intense heat causes an ultra-hard layer of magnetite which protects it from the rust. In the next step, a film of extra virgin olive oil is applied by hand to the surface. Further heating to 400°C then polymerises the olive oil in the magnetite to create a black, satin smooth to the touch, extremely resistant to high temperature and most importantly, with a natural non-stick finish. Fonderia Finco launched in the market a generation of new portable cast iron stove0s: ELIOS. Conceived for the professional kitchen, the catering world and lovers of excellent cuisine an essential business tool. The exclusive design gives it a strong impact, ideal for show-cooking events or any outside parties (pool party, garden party etc.).
