Multi-Layer CD Bottom Construction
Engineered by Zhejiang Hanxin Cookware Co., Ltd., this Multi-Layer CD Bottom Construction cook tool addresses the structural vulnerabilities of single-layer aluminum stamped pans. Our advanced manufacturing process integrates structural stability directly into the base, eliminating cold spots and improving cooking consistency for international culinary markets.
The Multi-Layer Innovation
The Multi-Layer CD Bottom Construction is the engineering foundation of this pizza pan's exceptional performance. Unlike single-layer pans that rely on a uniform thickness of material, the CD bottom employs a bonded composite structure that combines multiple layers of different materials—each selected for a specific functional purpose. This layered approach is the same principle used in premium multi-ply cookware, where the combination of materials creates a product that outperforms any single-material construction.
The typical CD bottom construction consists of a high-conductivity aluminum core sandwiched between layers of a more durable, warp-resistant material. The aluminum core provides rapid heat conduction—aluminum is one of the best conductors of heat among common cookware materials. The outer layers provide structural stability, preventing the warping that can occur with pure aluminum pans under high heat. This combination delivers the best of both worlds: the speed and responsiveness of aluminum with the durability and stability of a reinforced construction.
The multi-layer construction also contributes to the pan's even heat distribution. The bonded layers work together to spread heat evenly across the cooking surface, eliminating the hot spots that plague single-layer pans. The result is a pan that heats quickly, responds instantly to temperature changes, and maintains consistent temperature across its entire surface.

The Multi-Layer CD Bottom Construction is available in three sizes—24cm, 26cm, and 28cm—to suit different baking needs. The pan's ceramic non-stick coating provides effortless food release, while the CD bottom ensures consistent, even baking every time.
Micro-Groove CD Bottom Physics Explained
The concentric circles machined into the bottom of this pan are not decorative; they are engineered to control thermal expansion and heat tracking. The CD (Circular Dial) groove profile increases the effective surface area in contact with the heat source. This micro-texture traps rising heat and distributes it laterally across the pan floor, ensuring that the edge of a 28cm pizza pan cooks at the exact same temperature as the center.
Preventing Oil Pooling via Convexity Control
Cheaper pans often bow upward in the center when heated, causing cooking oil or butter to run to the outer edges. This leaves the center dry and prone to burning. Our Multi-Layer CD Bottom Construction uses counter-tensioned material layers that maintain a perfectly flat cooking plane under thermal load. Your oil stays exactly where you put it, ensuring a uniform sear across the entire surface.
Ergonomic Balance and Structural Stability
Thicker, multi-layered pans can often feel heavy and unwieldy. By using high-pressure hydraulic forming, we optimize the thickness profile—keeping the base dense and stable while tapering the walls slightly to reduce overall wrist strain. The cool-touch ergonomic handle balances this weight distribution perfectly, making it easy to slide pizzas or toss stir-fries.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What materials are used in the multi-layer CD bottom?
The CD bottom consists of multiple bonded layers, typically including a high-conductivity aluminum core for rapid heat distribution, reinforced intermediate layers for thermal diffusion, and a warp-resistant outer layer for structural stability.
Q2: How does the multi-layer construction improve cooking?
The multi-layer construction combines the fast heating of aluminum with the durability and even heat distribution of reinforced materials. This eliminates hot spots and ensures consistent, uniform cooking results.
Q3: Does the multi-layer construction prevent warping?
Yes. The outer layers provide structural stability, significantly reducing the risk of warping even under high heat conditions.
Q4: Is the pan compatible with induction cooktops?
Yes. The CD bottom design is compatible with all stovetops, including induction, gas, electric, and ceramic.
Q5: What sizes are available?
The Multi-Layer CD Bottom Construction pan is available in 24cm, 26cm, and 28cm sizes.
