Cooking pots are provided with wooden or plastic handles because they are bad conductors of heat. This prevents the heat from the pan to transfer to our hand. Thus, we can hold the utensils comfortably by our hands.
The reason why some pots and pans have plastic or wooden handles is due to the fact that plastic and wood are insulators which means they are bad conductors of heat. They are ideal materials for pot handles as they protect us from getting burnt.
Plastic or wood is a poor conductor, i.e., an insulator of heat, which prevents the handles from getting heated and allows us to hold the utensil easily.

Wood and plastic are insulator due to being bad conductor of heat and electricity. ... Utensils are made of metal. When they come in contact with heat ,the handles if they are made of metal become very hot ,one gets burned by touching them . Protected handles prevent one from getting burned.
Steel is a good conductor of heat; hence the frying pan is made of steel which helps to cook food. whereas wood is an insulator of heat, and it helps to hold the pan, hence the handle is made up of wood. If the wooden handle is not there, handling the steel pan will be tough, as touching a hot pan burns the hands.
Thermosetting plastics are used in saucepan handles because they do not soften on heating and also they cannot be bent easily. These plastics like bakelite are poor conductors of heat.
