The Excellent Houseware Serving Slate Placemat is designed for homeowners and hosts who value a minimalist, sophisticated aesthetic without compromising on practical table protection. It offers a stable, anti-slip surface that keeps dinnerware securely in place, making it perfect for both casual family meals and formal entertaining. While its durable construction provides excellent heat resistance and surface defense, users should note that the slate material requires careful handling to avoid chipping if dropped on hard floors.

No, this placemat is not dishwasher safe. The high temperatures and water exposure can damage the slate and the anti-slip backing.
Slate has natural heat-resistant properties, but it is always best practice to use a dedicated trivet for extremely hot cookware to prevent thermal shock.
While the surface is quite resilient, highly acidic or oily foods should be wiped away promptly to ensure no residue is absorbed by the stone.
This product is covered by a 2-year legal guarantee, ensuring protection against manufacturing defects.
It can be used outdoors, but it should not be left exposed to the elements for extended periods or in direct rain.
The edges are designed for dining use, but as it is cut from natural slate, they may have a slight tactile texture. They are not sharp enough to cut skin during normal handling.
Wipe the surface with a clean, damp cloth and dry immediately with a microfiber towel to prevent mineral buildup.
Ensure both the underside of the placemat and the table surface are completely free of dust and crumbs, as debris can interfere with the anti-slip grip.
For light marks, a very small amount of mineral oil applied with a soft cloth can help hide surface imperfections and restore the black luster.
Setting up your Excellent Houseware Slate Placemat is straightforward: simply place it on your dining surface with the anti-slip side facing down. No assembly is required. The placemat is compatible with all standard dining table materials, including wood, glass, and laminate.
To ensure the longevity of your product, avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical detergents, as these can scratch or dull the slate surface. Instead, use a soft, damp cloth for regular cleaning. If the placemat becomes particularly dirty, a mild soap solution may be used, followed immediately by drying with a soft towel. While durable, remember that slate is a natural stone product; do not place it in a dishwasher, as high heat and excessive water can compromise the structural integrity and the anti-slip coating.
