Food-safe silicone material: made from silicone that is certified safe for contact with fruits, vegetables and thawed items, so you can place food directly on the mat without concern. Soft, protective cushioning: the mat’s soft thickness cushions dishes and cookware to prevent scratches, chips or other damage when items are set down in the sink or washing area. Noise reduction: silicone construction dampens clattering and minimizes the noise of dishes, glass and utensils during washing or loading. Anti-slip stability: textured silicone grip holds the mat in place and helps prevent items from sliding, reducing the risk of slips and accidental breakage. Multi-function sink protection: designed to sit in the sink or at the washing station as a protective layer between hard sink surfaces and delicate kitchenware. Durable and resilient: the flexible silicone maintains its shape and protective properties through regular use without compressing or deforming easily. How it solves common kitchen problems Protects fragile dishes and glassware from direct contact with hard sink surfaces, lowering the likelihood of chips and cracks. Keeps food safe when rinsing or temporarily resting produce and thawed items on the countertop or in the sink.
