The S&T INC. Dish Drying Mat is the solution to the age-old tradition of placing dish towels on the counter when hand washing pots, pans, dishes and glassware. Often imitated, but never duplicated, our dish mat is a kitchen essential, featuring a center layer of foam that is fused to revolutionary, super-absorbent microfiber fabric using our proprietary manufacturing process. This process yields a mat that is highly functional and incredibly durable, use after use, wash after wash. The Dish Drying Mat is often used underneath a dish rack, or you can place dishes directly on the mat. The foam core helps to cushion delicate dishware and stemware. The mat is also machine washable. For best results, frequently machine wash with like colors, in cold water. Do not use bleach. Tumble dry low. Do not use fabric softener or dryer sheets. Do not iron. Allow the Dish Mat to thoroughly dry between uses and before storage. When not in use, the mat folds for easy storage. The dish mat is also not just for dishes! Try it under appliances such as a mixer or blender to protect your countertop from scratches and scuffs. The absorbent mat is also great under pet bowls to help catch those pesky drips from the water bowl. S&T INC. develops innovative solutions to everyday dilemmas. Their focus is to create products that exceed your expectations and help simplify your life.
