The SEB Super Cocotte is the first French pressure cooker to be manufactured using the stamping technique, hence the name of the company, Société d’Emboutissage de Bourgogne (Burgundy Stamping Company) in 99.5% laminated aluminum, which is a very pure and light material and twice as hard-wearing as cast aluminum. Its lid is fitted with a sprung safety valve, a rotating operating valve and a clamp, which distorts to allow steam to escape if excess pressure builds up. In just a few months, the SEB Super Cocotte became a genuine phenomenon, boosted by modern marketing methods and the creation of innovative advertising campaigns: store window dressing competitions, advertising vehicles traversing the countryside, posters and even catchy slogans like the unforgettable "SEB, c'est bien!" (SEB is good).
Grâce à ses 2 couvercles, Clipso’minut Tempo est un produit hybride 4 en 1 qui peut être utilisé en cuisson pression, cuisson lente avec couvercle, cuisson au four et pour le service à table, grâce à son design élégant.
Since its creation in 1953, the Cocotte-Minute® has enjoyed several innovations to offer customers additional services like its famous cookbook which also became a must-have and was translated in around ten languages. In 1994, the Cocotte-Minute® enjoyed another major technological revolution with the launch of Clipso. The pressure cooker now opens and closes with the single click of a push button and no more whistling from the valve. Over the years, features were added to make daily life even easier for consumers:
