Collection: Cork Heat Mats

Are cork heat mats safe to use with hot pots and pans?

Not only are they safe, but they’re also very practical! As a natural insulator, cork absorbs and dissipates heat efficiently, protecting the surface beneath.

You have plenty of options, including large cork heat mats that provide a secure and stable base for big hot pans. Our mats are a popular choice in many kitchens because they are lightweight, durable, and stylish, making them ideal for both casual and formal dining settings.

How much heat can a cork heat mat withstand?

Studies have shown that cork remains thermally stable at temperatures up to 200ºC, which is more than sufficient for most kitchen applications. However, avoid prolonged exposure to extreme heat, as this could damage the mat.

Can cork heat mats protect surfaces from scratches as well as heat?

Cork is excellent at protecting surfaces from scratches, as its natural texture creates a soft and malleable yet resilient barrier that prevents kitchenware from damaging countertops and tables.

How do I clean and maintain cork heat mats?

Cleaning your cork heat mats is very simple: just wipe them down with a damp cloth to remove any stains and let them air dry. For tougher spots, use a mild soap solution, but avoid soaking the mat in water.

To keep your cork heat mats looking as good as new, store them in a dry area and avoid exposing them to excessive moisture. With proper care, they’ll remain a reliable and stylish addition to your kitchen for many years.
