FAQs
Can I put this mat inside the oven?
No, this mat is intended for use as a trivet to protect surfaces from items taken out of the oven, not as an oven liner or baking surface.
Is it safe to use on wooden tables?
Yes, the heat-resistant silicone provides an excellent barrier to prevent heat transfer and potential scorching on wooden surfaces.
How do I store the mat when it is not in use?
The mat is flexible and can be laid flat in a drawer or hung up using the integrated storage feature.
What is the maximum temperature rating?
The Zeal Heritage Hot Mat is heat-resistant up to 250C.
Will the colour fade over time?
The silicone is durable and colour-fast, though it should be cleaned regularly to prevent residue buildup that might dull the appearance.
Troubleshooting
Mat slips on glossy surfaces
Ensure both the bottom of the trivet and the table surface are clean and dry before placement.
Stains from food spills
Soak the mat in warm soapy water for 10 minutes then scrub gently with a soft sponge.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no setup required for the Zeal Heritage Hot Mat; simply place it on a flat, clean surface and it is ready for use. It is compatible with all types of cookware, including ceramic, glass, metal, and enameled cast iron. To maintain the mat, clean it with warm soapy water after heavy use or place it in the dishwasher. Avoid using abrasive scouring pads, as these can degrade the silicone finish over time. When not in use, ensure the mat is stored away from direct open flames or heating elements.
