Porcelain enamel is a glass of a particular chemical composition and physical nature determined for the surface protection of metal.
Porcelain enamel frit is a form of glass bonded to metal on a molecular level at high temperature.
This results in a typical and unique composite material of glass and metal, which combines the positive qualities of both materials:
Sanitary...a nonporous surface that resists bacteria growth and cleans easily.
Abrasion Resistant...does not scratch from wear and cleaning.
Chemical Resistant...is not harmed by harsh chemicals.
Corrosion Resistant...does not rust.
Graffiti-proof...everything wipes off.
Flame-proof...will not burn.
Fade-proof...is colorfast because the color is in it, not on it.
Totally Inorganic and Environmentally Friendly...is a nontoxic, mineral substance.
Weather Resistant...is not effected by the elements.
