Care Handling Instructions
To ensure your products remain in the best condition throughout their lifespan, please handle them with care and follow the recommendations below.
Heating & Chilling Your Products
Dalebook products are intended for use in food serving and presentation where temperatures remain constant over a given period of time. We recommend that products are not subjected to dramatic changes in temperature (e.g. directly from the refrigerator to the dishwasher or into hot water). Our products can withstand food and drink temperatures up to 120°c where the hot food/drink is placed directly into the dish. They are not recommended for use under direct heat or in cookware such as a bain marie or a chafing dish, or under sustained heat higher than 70°c. Not for oven or microwave use.
Cleaning Your Products
We recommend hand washing your products to ensure they remain in the best condition throughout their lifespan. To keep your products looking great, clean them with non-abrasive plastic pads or plastic bristles. The majority of Dalebrook products are dishwasher safe, however, it is important to avoid the use of harsh chemicals, chlorine based detergents or bleach. Where stubborn food persists, pre-soak your product in warm water and a high-quality pre-soak detergent.
