Is melamine harmful for health?
No. Our La La Land melamine homeware is made from food-grade melamine, which is safe for everyday use. While melamine is heat-resistant and durable, it’s best to avoid using it in microwaves or with very high heat, as extreme temperatures can damage the surface. For everyday meals, picnics, and casual dining, melamine is a safe and practical choice.
Is melamine a plastic or ceramic?
Melamine is a type of hard plastic, not ceramic. It’s crafted to be lightweight, durable, and resistant to chips and cracks—perfect for family meals, outdoor gatherings, and busy kitchens. Unlike ceramic, melamine won’t shatter if dropped, making it ideal for everyday use and portable dining.
Is melamine better than ceramic?
It depends on your needs. Melamine is lighter, more durable, and resistant to breakage, making it ideal for outdoor dining, kids, or busy households. Ceramic, on the other hand, can handle higher heat and is microwave-safe, giving it a more traditional feel. For colourful, stackable, and easy-to-clean everyday tableware, melamine offers unmatched practicality with style.
Can I put melamine in the dishwasher?
Yes. All our melamine plates, trays, bowls, cups and serving pieces are dishwasher-safe.
Can I use melamine in the microwave?
No. Melamine is not microwave-safe. Using it in the microwave can damage the surface and potentially release chemicals. Stick to cold or warm foods, and it’s perfect for serving and entertaining.
Will the designs on melamine fade over time?
With normal use and care, no. Avoid exposing melamine homeware to high heat in dishwashers, and wipe clean after use. Our colourful, artistic prints are made to last and brighten your table for years.
