Domestic Cookware - Graphical Symbols (Pictograms)
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 14916 standard is focused on providing uniform pictograms, sometimes known as graphic symbols, for household cookware. These symbols serve as visual representations of the heating sources for which the cookware is intended and are intended to be placed on the cookware or its packaging.
This standard's primary goal is to guarantee consistency and clarity in the communication of information about cookware's compatibility with various heating sources. Manufacturers can efficiently tell consumers whether their cookware is suited for gas, electricity, induction, or other heating methods by utilizing standardized pictograms.
The standardized symbols assist customers in making well-informed decisions when buying cookware, ensuring that they get the right type that will work effectively and safely with their particular heating source. Additionally, because of the uniformity of labeling across brands and products, it is easier for consumers to comprehend and evaluate the compatibility of different cookware options.
