Fissler is a company based in Germany that produces cookware items. Fissler's main products include pots, pans, and pressure cookers, knives; and kitchen accessories.
Fissler's history dates back to the 19th century with its introduction of the Goulash Cannon, a mobile field kitchen. In the 1920s Fissler came out with the first aluminum pans for electric stoves. In the 1950s Fissler introduced the first pressure cooker with a multi-setting control valve and the patented "Thematic" base.
Today, Fissler's pots and pans have an all-stove base, meaning that they can be used on any heating surface without warping or degrading.[1] Fissler also produces the CookStar Induction Pro, an induction cooking surface. Induction cooking uses electromagnetic technology to heat the pots and pans, without being hot to the touch.[2]
The company at one time produced the world's most expensive pan costing £100,000.[3]
Fissler's two lines of knives are called Profession and Perfection. The Profession line is inspired by Japanese knives and includes knives specifically for making sushi.[4]
