When a frying pan is more than just a frying pan: Meet ONYX Cookware ZERO
It all started with a dream.
A dream of a frying pan that could do it all – without all the fuss so many of us know too well.
You probably already know this: stainless steel pans can be fantastic. They heat up in seconds and deliver that perfect sear that brings flavor to life.
But they can also be tricky. Food sticks. Cleaning is a hassle. And sometimes it feels like you need a culinary degree just to use one properly.
So we asked ourselves:
What if we could take away everything that makes it hard – and keep only what works?
That’s how ONYX Cookware ZERO was born.
Nature’s own non-stick solution
At first glance, ZERO looks like a classic stainless steel pan. And it is.
But underneath the surface, something very different is going on.
We’ve used an advanced nitrogen-infused heat treatment to create a surface inspired by one of nature’s smartest designs: the lotus leaf.
The lotus leaf is famous for one thing – nothing sticks to it. Not water. Not dirt. Not even dust.
Under a microscope, it reveals a surface filled with microscopic peaks and valleys that form a natural barrier. Everything just rolls off.
That’s exactly the principle we’ve recreated in the ZERO pan.
The surface is precisely structured with micro-patterns that are invisible to the naked eye. As you cook, a fine layer of steam forms between the food and the pan – like an invisible cushion that helps prevent sticking.
It might sound like magic, but it’s really just nature, translated into steel.
No coating. Just smart technology, inspired by the world around us.
Use it your way – it can take it
ZERO was made for real, everyday cooking. No special techniques. No rituals. No nonsense.

Built to last – even in professional kitchens
It’s one thing to develop advanced technology.
It’s another to see how it performs in the real world – day after day, use after use.
That’s why feedback from professional chefs means so much to us.
Recently, the head chef at Restaurant NIMB in Copenhagen said something we’re especially proud of:
They’ve used our pans in their busy, professional kitchen and were surprised by how well they hold their shape. No warped bases. No bending. Just stable performance, again and again.
It holds up. Even with metal utensils. Even after countless heat-ups and cool-downs. ZERO is built to keep its shape – and stay in your kitchen for years to come.
Why choose ZERO?
Because we’ve stripped away everything you don’t need – and kept only what truly works.
ZERO coating. ZERO compromises.
Just a pan that performs. Every day. Over and over again.
And what’s more: we offer a 5-year guarantee on ZERO – because we believe in its quality and durability.
It’s not just a promise. It’s our commitment – to you and your kitchen.
