Cookware
Is ceramic / stainless steel cookware free of lead and safe?
This corpus does not contain a verified lead-release measurement for ceramic or stainless steel cookware, so it does not call either material free of lead. The draft notes point at product-occurrence literature that was not saved with this site. Those studies are not quoted.
What is not available
No leach test, no micrograms per liter, and no brand list were verified.
Related evidence, where it exists, is on the linked pages. Those pages do not fill this gap.

What's safe to buy
The Heavy Metal Tested and Certified public register listed no licensees on 15 October 2026. That page reported 0 certified brands and 0 certified products, and it stated that no brand has completed the three-lot baseline. A specimen layout on the register is an illustration, not a licensee. This page does not name or rank any brand.
The program states that certification is a measurement of a product against a published limit, not a statement that the product is safe. If a licensee is later listed for this category, it will be on the register.
