The O2 Series is based on a pioneering, ergonomically designed air-cushion handle that features pockets of pressurized air. The patent-pending O2 technology is completely unique to any handle on the market, and provides the user with the best comfort, the most secure grip and the most complete control of the tool. The handle's air pressure is measured by PSI (pounds per square inch) to ensure consistency in each tool. After the air has been calibrated, the handle is soaked in water to insure that there is no air leakage.

While air is in the handle, zinc is in the core. A strong, durable material that is resistant to stains and scratching, zinc provides a long, maintenance-free life for more than 60 years. The weight of this metal allows the tools to work more efficiently, reducing the need to exert excessive force when completing the cooking task at hand.

The materials in each Art and Cook tool are non-toxic, dishwasher safe and FDA approved.
