7-Ply Construction & Silvinox Technology

7-Ply Construction & Silvinox Technology

The Demeyere Atlantis stock pot features seven bonded layers of stainless steel, aluminum, and silver alloy that work together to eliminate hot spots and deliver edge-to-edge heat consistency. Unlike 3-ply designs that limit the conductive layers to the base, our full-body construction extends thermal efficiency up the sidewalls for even simmering.

Our proprietary Silvinox electrochemical surface treatment removes iron and impurities from the stainless steel, creating a brilliantly white cooking surface that resists staining and discoloration. This silvery finish makes cleanup faster and keeps your pot looking new through years of daily use.


Capacity & Dimensions for Everyday Cooking

Capacity & Dimensions for Everyday Cooking

At 8.5 quarts, this stock pot handles four quarts of chicken stock, a full pound of pasta with boiling water, or Sunday pot roast with vegetables for six guests. The 9.4-inch diameter and 7.9-inch height create optimal proportions for even heat circulation during long simmers.

The rolled rim measures exactly flush with the pot body, engineered to channel liquids smoothly into serving bowls or storage containers without back-drips. We’ve balanced the pot’s weight distribution so that even when filled to capacity, the welded handles provide stable, comfortable lifting.


Care & Maintenance for Lifetime Performance

Care & Maintenance for Lifetime Performance

Your Demeyere Atlantis stock pot is dishwasher safe, though hand washing with warm soapy water preserves the Silvinox finish longest. For stubborn stuck-on residue, fill the pot with warm water and a tablespoon of baking soda, bring to a simmer for five minutes, then scrub with a non-abrasive pad.

Avoid using steel wool or harsh scouring powders that can scratch the stainless surface. If water spots appear after washing, wipe the interior dry immediately with a soft towel—the Silvinox treatment naturally resists mineral buildup better than untreated stainless.

Best stock pot I've ever owned
I've been making chicken stock weekly for years, and this pot has completely changed my results. The heat distribution is so even that I can simmer for ten hours without any scorching on the bottom. Cleanup is a breeze—nothing sticks to the Silvinox surface. Worth every penny for serious home cooks.

Heats incredibly fast on induction
I was skeptical about spending this much on a stock pot, but the induction performance is remarkable. Water boils in half the time compared to my old pot. The handles stay cool even during long simmers, and the weight distribution makes it easy to pour without splashing.

Perfect size for batch cooking
The 8.5-quart capacity is ideal for making big batches of soup or chili for freezing. I love that the interior measurements are marked—no more guessing liquid levels. The rolled rim pours cleanly into containers without drips down the side. This pot will last forever.

Professional quality for home use
As a former line cook, I recognize restaurant-grade construction when I see it. The 7-ply walls heat evenly all the way up, not just on the bottom like cheaper pots. I've used it for everything from lobster boils to pasta water, and it performs flawlessly every time.

Stays beautiful after heavy use
I've had my Atlantis stock pot for two years now, using it at least three times a week. The stainless finish still looks brand new—no staining or discoloration despite cooking tomato sauces and making stock regularly. The Silvinox treatment really works. I'm building out the full Atlantis collection piece by piece.

Excellent quality, wish I'd bought sooner
I hesitated for months before buying because of the price, but I should have purchased this stock pot years ago. The build quality is outstanding, and the even heating means my stocks and soups turn out better than they ever did before. My only minor complaint is that the lid handle gets warm on very long simmers, but it's manageable with a towel.

Questions About the Atlantis 8.5-Qt Stock Pot

Yes, the Atlantis 8.5-qt stock pot is fully compatible with induction cooktops. It features our patented TriplInduc base technology—a 4.8 mm thick disk with three aluminum alloy layers optimized for magnetic induction efficiency.

The pot heats approximately 30% faster on induction compared to standard tri-ply cookware while maintaining even heat distribution. It also works perfectly on gas, electric coil, and ceramic glass cooktops.

Yes, the demeyere atlantis stock pot is completely dishwasher safe. The Silvinox surface treatment protects the stainless steel from detergent damage and prevents the clouding that affects untreated stainless cookware.

For longest life and to preserve the brilliant finish, we recommend hand washing with warm soapy water and drying immediately with a soft towel. This prevents mineral deposits from hard water and keeps the interior looking factory-new.

Silvinox is our proprietary electrochemical surface treatment that removes iron and impurities from the top layer of stainless steel. This process creates a silvery-white cooking surface that resists staining, discoloration, and fingerprints far better than standard stainless.

The treatment makes cleanup easier because food residue and mineral deposits don't bond as strongly to the surface. Your stock pot maintains its brilliant appearance through years of heavy use, and you'll spend less time scrubbing stubborn stains.

Three-ply cookware bonds aluminum between two stainless layers only at the base, leaving the sidewalls as single-layer steel. Our 7-ply construction extends multiple conductive layers throughout the entire pot body—base and walls—for superior heat distribution.

This full-body design eliminates the cold spots and uneven cooking common in 3-ply pots, especially during long simmers. The demeyere atlantis stock pot maintains consistent temperature from bottom to rim, so your stocks reduce evenly and soups don't scorch at the base while staying cool at the top.

Yes, the Atlantis 8.5-qt stock pot is oven safe to 500°F, including the lid. The welded stainless handles and lid knob contain no plastic or wood components that would limit oven use.

This versatility makes the pot perfect for starting braises on the stovetop and finishing them in the oven, or for keeping soups warm in a low oven during parties. Always use oven mitts when handling the pot from the oven, as the handles will be hot.

We warranty the Atlantis stock pot against manufacturing defects, warping, and handle detachment for as long as you own it. This covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal household use.

The warranty does not cover damage from misuse such as overheating an empty pot, using it on outdoor grills, or damage from thermal shock. Normal wear to the cooking surface or cosmetic scratches from utensils are not considered defects. Register your pot within 30 days of purchase to activate full warranty coverage.

The Atlantis 8.5-qt stock pot measures 9.4 inches in diameter and 7.9 inches tall (excluding handles and lid). Most standard 24-inch dishwashers will accommodate the pot on the lower rack, though you may need to remove the upper rack or adjust it to its highest position.

If your dishwasher has limited height clearance, hand washing is simple—the Silvinox surface releases stuck-on food easily with warm soapy water and a soft sponge. The pot's smooth interior and rounded corners prevent buildup in hard-to-reach spots.
