Company announcement

Town Food Service Equipment Co., Inc. is recalling aluminum saucepans due to potential lead contamination.

The recalled saucepans were distributed in multiple states and Canada between January 1, 2023, and November 30, 2025.

No illnesses have been reported to date.

Risk:

Lead is toxic to humans and can affect people of any age or health status, and there is no known safe level of exposure to lead. Even low levels of lead exposure can cause serious health problems, particularly in children and fetuses. Consuming food with elevated lead levels can contribute to elevated levels of lead in the blood. Children and babies are more susceptible to lead toxicity due to their smaller body size, metabolism, and rapid growth. At low levels, children may not have obvious symptoms but can still experience trouble learning, low IQ, and behavior changes. At higher levels of lead exposure, people may experience fatigue, headache, stomach pain, vomiting, or neurologic changes.

Impacted states: Nationwide

Products:

- Town brand 1 Quart Aluminum Saucepan

- Town brand 1-1/2 Quart Aluminum Saucepan

- Town brand 2 Quart Aluminum Saucepan
