Key specifications

• Absorbent surface suitable for water collection from washed kitchenware
• Flexible construction for rolling or folding and compact storage
• Non-slip surface to stabilise dishes during drying
• Protects worktops from moisture and heat contact

How to use

Place the mat on a clean, dry section of countertop or table before arranging washed items on top. Spread dishes and glassware evenly to allow airflow and faster drying. When using for hot cookware, place the pan or lid on the mat briefly to protect the surface; avoid direct contact with flames or open heating elements. After use, allow the mat to air dry flat or hang it to remove residual moisture. For storage, roll or fold the mat and keep it in a drawer or cabinet.

Usage recommendations

Clean the mat regularly according to manufacturer instructions: rinse or wipe off residue and let it dry completely before storing. Avoid exposing the mat to direct heat sources for prolonged periods and do not machine-dry unless stated safe by the manufacturer. Periodically inspect the mat for wear and replace it when absorbency or surface integrity declines.
