According to the company, 360 saves time, water and energy, keeps your food and family away from harmful chemicals, and since there&#8217;s no added fat needed (to keep food from sticking) this cookware may even be healthier.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-136283\" src=\"http:\/\/images1.blisstree.com\/files\/2009\/12\/Coveredskillets.jpg\" alt=\"Coveredskillets\" width=\"590\" height=\"213\" \/><\/p>\n<p>360 works by cooking like an oven using <em>Vapor Technology <\/em>&#8211; i.e. it creates a low but intense heat and then distributes said heat from all sides instead of bottom-up only. The result creates a surround cooking effect that works on a low heat setting, prepares foods more efficiently and reduces the cooking times and preserves nutrients in the process.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Green aspects: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>360 cookware has &#8220;<em>Five layers of the highest quality American metals, ensuring no harmful chemicals or materials ever touch your food.<\/em>&#8221; Pots and pans are specifically made with T-304 stainless steel and alloy construction.<\/li>\n<li>Cookware is heat and energy-efficient plus uses less water &#8211; not so much that it&#8217;d make a huge difference, but still.<\/li>\n<li>The 360 plant has some green aspects such as energy-efficient windows, passive lighting, use of renewable wind power for machines, closed-loop dust collection system to filter the air internally to prevent volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from entering the environment. Additionally the company notes that no harmful chemicals are used in the manufacturing process and that wastewater is tested routinely to ensure complete compliance with strict local and state standards.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-136284\" src=\"http:\/\/images1.blisstree.com\/files\/2009\/12\/stockpots.jpg\" alt=\"stockpots\" width=\"590\" height=\"213\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Possible problems:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The cookware is long lasting, which is good and can possibly be recycled, although there may be issues due to the alloy. All stainless steel products are 100% recyclable but recycling companies usually need to separate the various grade types. Alloy on the other hand is a mixed metal and is harder to recycle. I also didn&#8217;t see a recycling program at the company website.<\/p>\n<p>All in all the cookware looks good, is greener than many, and actually has a very inexpensive price point (you&#8217;ll be surprised because these pots look like they&#8217;d cost more).You can also buy what you need only or purchase a set. 360 makes saucepans, skillets, stock pots, and a nice saut\u00e9 collection.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.360cookware.com\/UIHome.aspx\">360 Cookware<\/a> to learn more. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Post from: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.blisstree.com\">Blisstree<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blisstree.com\/articles\/360-greener-cookware\/\">360 Greener Cookware<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>360 Cookware is a newer green cookware on the market and while I haven&#8217;t used it yet, so I can&#8217;t personally comment, it sounds interesting.
