Silpat care instructions for silicone bakeware

Link card to the original Silpat silicone bakeware care instructions

Reusable silicone baking mats differ in temperature limits and dishwasher suitability. Silpat recommends gentle handwashing with a sponge and soapy water for longer life and allows dishwashing for specified products. Avoid sharp tools and direct flames or contact with heating elements.

Check the exact brand and model for its heat limit, dishwasher approval and storage instructions.
Allow the mat to cool before cleaning, then prepare warm water with mild dish soap.
Clean both sides with a soft sponge; repeat on oily areas. Do not use abrasive pads or sharp scrapers.
Rinse away detergent, shake off water or blot with a clean cloth, and dry completely.
Never cut food on the mat or use metal scraping tools; avoid direct flame, grill heat and oven heating elements.
Store flat or loosely rolled if the manufacturer allows. If torn or deeply cut, consult the maker about replacement.
