G.E.T. Talks Melamine: Why It’s Not Microwave-Safe and What Happens When You Do Put It In a Microwave

With melamine dinnerware becoming a popular production material in the hospitality industry, common questions arise concerning the functionality and safety of melamine products. In a great recent blog post by G.E.T. Enterprises, they answer one of the most frequently asked questions about melamine: Is it microwave safe?

A product not marked as ‘microwave safe’ is a general safety label that may have a variety of meanings. To know exactly what this label entails allows you to get the most use out of your dinnerware and keep customers safe and happy. For melamine, this simply means that the product will eventually dry out, resulting in a brown color and brittle piece of dinnerware. You can stock your kitchen without the worry of toxic chemicals being released or tainted food from microwave use, but G.E.T. recommends avoiding the microwave for a longer product life.
