Find Out Where Cookware is Made

Finding the location of a product’s manufacturing can be challenging. But it is not impossible! Below are a few tips to help you locate the exact factory where a given item was made.

1. Start With the Company Website

Most larger companies will list their locations on their corporate websites. Many specialized manufacturers make this information publicly available within their product listings. The listing Staub cocotte product listing below clearly states that the cast iron is made in France.

2. Labels and Tags

Look for locally-made labels or tags on the product itself or on its packaging. Such as in the United States, Canada, Mexico, etc. This may make it easier to find out where a product was made based on its country of origin.

3. Embossing

5. Awards and Certifications

Check for local certifications or awards on the product itself. Just as many manufacturers choose to denote where their products were made, others may opt to highlight other kinds of company achievements.

For example environmental certification by an organization like Fair Trade USA or Green America. While these can be a bit harder to identify than simply looking for a “Made in” label, these can be good indications of where the product was made.

6. Contact the Company Directly

If you are unable to determine the origin of a given item through any other means, contacting the company’s customer service team may yield more information.

They should be able to tell you exactly where the product was made, and may even be able to give you a direct link to that information on their website.
