Why does it say Schott Ceran or K on the glass of my hob from IKEA?
All our glass hobs, whether induction or ceramic are made with a special type of ceramic glass that is both durable and heat-resistant. The marking "Schott Ceran" or "K" (Saint-Gobain) indicates which supplier manufactured the glass. These are two of the world’s leading producers of hob glass.
Both Schott Ceran and Saint-Gobain, which is the brand behind the "K" marking, are globally recognized manufacturers, and their markings can also be found on appliances from other brands.You can rest assured that your hob is made with high-quality materials from reputable suppliers!
