However stainless steel is a poor conductor of heat, so it is important to make sure you choose a range with an encapsulate base and if necessary that is also suitable for induction. An encapsulated base includes a disc of aluminium, which is a much better heat conductor, sandwiched between two stainless steel discs on the base. The thicker the aluminum disc is more effective with heat conduction. Why Swift? Swift began manufacturing cookware in Birmingham between the two World Wars.

Why Supreme sg? Supreme sg uses the same bodies as Supreme which is Swift's oldest range of cookware, a timeless classic. In addition, the Supreme sg enjoys a cast stainless steel handles with a soft grip silicone coating. The simple body design works exceptionally well with the brushed stainless steel bodies, the polished rims, the stainless steel lids and the stainless steel handles. The stainless steel lids have steam vents that ensure the pressure does not build up thereby reducing boiling over and preventing the lid from being stuck in place (due to the creation of a vacuum when the food cools). The stunning handles come in four sizes to ensure that the balance and comfort of use is right for every pan. While it isn't advised to use the Supreme sg under the grill, they can all be used in the oven as the silicone handles are perfectly safe up to 230 degrees Celsius. Cleaning Supreme can be cleaned by hand or in the dishwasher. If cleaning by hand, using hot soapy water and a soft abrasive will give the best results. A harder abrasive can be used for the uncoated pieces if necessary. Be careful when using a harder abrasive on the stainless steel, while not affecting its perfromance, it will scratch and mark a little. The hard abrasive should not be used on non-stick items as the coating will scratch and deteriorate. However as previously stated if you prefer all the pieces are dishwasher safe.
