FAQs
Can I put this board in the dishwasher?
No, it is recommended to hand wash the board to preserve the artwork and the integrity of the non-slip feet.
Is it safe to cut raw meat on this board?
While the non-porous surface is hygienic, we recommend dedicated plastic or wooden boards for raw meat to prevent cross-contamination and to protect your knife edges.
Can I place a boiling hot pot directly from the stove onto it?
Yes, the toughened glass is designed to handle high heat, making it an excellent trivet for hot cookware.
What is the primary material used?
The board is constructed from high-quality, toughened glass.
Will the watercolour design fade over time?
The design is printed on the underside of the glass to protect it from direct contact with knives and food, ensuring the artwork remains vibrant with proper care.
Troubleshooting
The board slides on the countertop.
Ensure the surface underneath is clean and dry. If the issue persists, check that the rubber feet on the bottom are free of dust or grease.
Surface marks or stains appearing.
Use a non-abrasive glass cleaner or mild soapy water. Avoid steel wool or harsh chemicals which may lift the protective finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your protector is straightforward: simply place the board on a flat, dry section of your countertop with the non-slip feet facing down. Because the base is beige, it complements most neutral kitchen palettes, particularly light stone or wooden countertops. To care for your board, hand wash it with mild dish soap and a soft cloth; while the glass is durable, avoid using abrasive scrubbing pads that could scratch the printed watercolour design on the underside. Do not submerge the board in a dishwasher, as high heat and harsh detergents can damage the print and the adhesion of the non-slip feet.
