Xtrema is a family-owned and operated business in New Jersey, though their cookware is handcrafted by artisans in China. While “made in China” is usually not touted as a positive feature, there are two reasons that ceramics are the exception.

First, There’s a reason we say “honey, grab the good china!” when guests come over. With more than 10,000 years of expertise under their belt, China is long known for producing some of the world’s best ceramics – both for dishes and cookware.

Second, while there was an issue a few decades ago with lead and cadmium-based glazes (worldwide, not just in China), China has long since modernized their machinery and glazing processes to meet strict FDA compliance standards that ensure there are no unsafe contaminants in their cookware. Xtrema’s factories are not only certified by the FDA; they are also certified to the even stricter standards of California’s Prop 65.
