Forest Green Melamine Coasters - Set of 4

UK made melamine coasters

Strong, rigid coaster set

Classic melamine coasters by Plymouth Pottery are made in the UK and have strong, very hard melamine surface, with a hardboard middle for rigidity and a soft cork base to prevent your furniture from getting scuffed. These traditional corkbacked coasters are very versatile and can be used in various types of dining situation. Alternatively they can be casually placed around the home, to be quickly slipped under a hot mug or ice cool wine glass.

They are something which is often under rated, but the role of the humble coaster is crucial in protecting your desk or coffee table from the water rings and heat stains that can be created by cups; particularly on varnished wooden surfaces.

When your furniture has been damaged in this way it’s not very easy to buff out these stains. Therefore prevention is much easier and using a set of quality melamine coasters is not too difficult.

The traditional appearance of these melamine drinks coasters gives off a look of quality to your dining event.

Protection for your tabletop

Possibly the most useful aspect of having coasters with a hard melamine upper surface is their ability to remain undamaged from water and general moisture. This is the main threat to the appearance of coasters. Overtime regular coasters will eventually start to show marks and stains underneath the top surface.

This type of damage is almost inevitable when heat and then moisture is repeatedly applied to the surface of the standard coaster. Even with the best will in the world moisture is not always wiped off immediately. The benefit of melamine is the resistance to heat up to 150ºC, which means hot mugs do not weaken the surface. This in turn keeps the top layer intact and therefore water resistant for a much longer time frame.

The best maintenance method is to wipe them clean with a damp cloth as this will help preserve your melamine coasters, ensuring they will provide you with many years of stylish usage.
