DuraShield®
NON-STICK PAN COATING
DuraShield® delivers more releases than all other competitors worldwide
Our DuraShield® coatings provide the longest lasting release life and the best release characteristics for baked goods from buns and rolls to breads and cakes. We apply DuraShield to new pans at our pan manufacturing facilities in Brazil, Romania, and the USA.
The Value of DuraShield
DuraShield is made with a polymer that lasts approximately ten times longer than glaze. That means less scheduled maintenance, fewer work stoppages, and less worry—making your bakery more productive. Plus, we’re constantly testing new coatings to ensure your bakery’s pans perform at their best.

Handling Procedures
FOR BAKING PANS WITH DURASHIELD AND OPTISHIELD COATINGSDuraShield and OptiShield coatings have excellent non-stick properties and resistance to corrosion. However, exposure to excessive heat or moisture and contact with plant equipment or practices that cause abrasion of the coating can shorten the life of your pans. Following these handling requirements will minimize damage and maximize the life of your coated pans. Neglecting to follow these guidelines will reduce the life of your pan and, if the damage is sufficiently severe, may potentially void the warranty.
