Product Information
Full details
Designed for homeowners seeking a blend of elegance and practicality, these B&Q reversible placemats are ideal for protecting dining surfaces during everything from everyday family dinners to formal gatherings. The key benefit is their durable, heat-resistant PVC construction, which offers a robust shield against spills and heat damage while remaining incredibly simple to wipe clean. One important caveat is that while they are heat-resistant, they should not be used for direct contact with extremely hot oven-to-table cookware to prevent potential material deformation.

FAQs
Can I put these in the dishwasher?
No, these placemats are not dishwasher safe. Submerging them in water or high heat may warp the material.
Are they safe for children?
Yes, they are made from durable PVC which is easy to clean, making them a great choice for family meals.
What is the exact size of the mats?
Each mat is 35cm in length, 25cm in width, and 0.17cm in depth.
Can I place a boiling hot pan directly on them?
It is not recommended. While heat-resistant, direct contact with extremely high temperatures can damage the PVC.
Are they sold as a set?
Yes, these are supplied as a set of four placemats.
Can I use these outdoors?
They can be used for outdoor dining, but it is recommended to bring them inside after use to avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Troubleshooting
Mats are curling at the edges
Lay the placemats flat on a warm, level surface or place a heavy book on them for a few hours to restore their shape.
Stubborn stains on the surface
Use a mild soap solution and a soft non-abrasive cloth; avoid bleach or heavy industrial degreasers.
Mats slipping on a glass table
Place a small non-slip grip pad or a small amount of silicone adhesive tack underneath the corners of the mat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your table is straightforward: lay the mats flat on your surface to ensure the best protection. If the mats arrive slightly curled from packaging, lay them flat on a warm surface for a short period to allow them to settle. For compatibility, these mats perform well on most dining table materials, including oak, mahogany, glass, and laminate. To care for your mats, avoid using harsh abrasive sponges or chemical cleaners, as these can damage the gold border or the PVC finish. A soft cloth dipped in warm, soapy water is sufficient for regular maintenance. Ensure the mats are completely dry before stacking them to maintain their longevity.
