I did a little web surfing and found this
"I just received an email response from the Ameriware customer support. He said that Vollrath has been making cookware since 1874. He said that their parent company is Cook's Warehouse, Inc. and has been in business since 1978. He said that all nonsticks have some PTFE in it and the Ameriware nonstick is a three layered nonstick surface with ceramic and Titanium."

PTFE=Teflon=Bad
Ameriware is just more than happy to fudge the truth a little in the demos because they dont use Teflon(TM) brand PTFE in their product, so if you ask about teflon they will say no.
