Product Insights
The Nature Landscape Laminated Cork Placemats Set of 4 from Simons Maison (29 CAD, in stock, one review) is a cork-backed MDF placemat built around the cork layer: it balances the MDF core so the mat stays flat as humidity changes, compresses to uneven tabletops and springs back so the mat does not rock, and grips harder under a loaded plate, resisting sliding while protecting finishes. The same backing acts as a thermal and moisture buffer, insulating the tabletop from a warm plate, letting moisture pass through, buffering humidity so a damp wipe or cold table does not pool condensation, and remaining chemically inert so it will not leach, stain or discolor table finishes; the sealed laminate surface wipes clean of coffee, wine, soy sauce and grease with a damp cloth. Each mat fits standard 10–10.5 inch dinner plates with cutlery room on either side, and the four mats print one matched forest panorama sold extendably with matching pieces, positioning the mat rather than the plate as the carrier of an outdoor, alfresco theme. The tradeoff is heat and cork condition: heat resistance to 90°C/194°F clears the 140–150°F warm-plate serving target but sits mid-category for cork-backed mats and can damage the laminate under sustained contact, so a trivet is needed for anything hotter, and oven warming at 170–200°F exceeds the ceiling; crushed or waterlogged cork loses the air cells that do the insulating, so the flatness, grip and tabletop protection all depend on keeping the backing intact.
Verified claims
- Flatness
- Cork backing balances the MDF core so the mat stays flat as humidity changes.
- Thermal buffer
- Cork backing insulates the tabletop from a warm plate's heat and absorbs ambient humidity without trapping condensation against the finish.
- Heat resistance
- Heat resistant to 90°C/194°F, above the 140–150°F warm-plate serving target; use a trivet for anything hotter.
- Insulation durability
- Crushed or waterlogged cork backing loses the air cells that insulate the table.
- Cushioning
- Cork backing provides cushioning and recovers well after compression, so the rigid MDF mat keeps its flat plane over use.
- Non-slip & scratch protection
- Cork backing resists sliding and protects tabletops, gripping harder under a loaded plate.
- Warm-plate serving
- Warm plates at 140–150°F clear the 194°F ceiling; only cookware above 194°F exceeds it.
- Dinner plate fit
- Each 11.5 x 15.75 in (29 x 40 cm) placemat fits a standard 10–11 inch dinner plate with room for cutlery and a glass.
- Styling
- The misty forest landscape print reads as an outdoor-inspired theme, pitched at alfresco dining.
- Heat limit
- 90°C sits mid-category for cork-backed mats; sustained contact above it can damage the laminate.
- Cleaning
- Sealed laminate surface wipes clean with a damp cloth; avoid soaking and abrasive cleaners for longevity.
- Non-marking backing
- Chemically inert cork backing won't stain or discolor table finishes.
- Moisture handling
- Cork backing buffers humidity, so a damp wipe or cold table won't pool condensation.
- Scenic theme
- The misty forest landscape print of green trees and mountains makes the mat, not the plate, carry the table's outdoor theme.
- Coordinated set
- The set includes four identical placemats, each displaying the same panoramic misty forest landscape of green trees and mountains, extendable with matching pieces sold separately.
- Dishwasher safety
- Hand-wipe only: these placemats are not dishwasher safe and should not be immersed in water, which can swell the MDF core and cork and cause the laminate to lift.
- Spill drying
- Blot spills rather than letting them sit, then wipe with a damp cloth and air dry flat before stacking to avoid pooled moisture on the edges.

| Nature Landscape Laminated Cork Placemats Set Of 4: Choose this if you want a set of 4 rectangular placemats (11.5 by 15.75 inches) with a nature-inspired print of green trees and mountains, designed in Canada as a Simons Maison exclusive. Built with a laminated paper/MDF top and cork backing, they are heat resistant up to 90 °C (194 °F) and wipe clean with a damp cloth, with matching pieces sold separately. Note that the heat resistance tops out at 90 °C, so very hot cookware placed directly on them exceeds their rated limit.[1,2,3] | Spritz Laminated Cork Placements Set Of 4: Choose this if you want a playful, cocktail-themed set for casual summer entertaining: each of the four square placemats measures 13 by 13 inches (33 by 33 cm) with a watercolor-style spritz cocktail illustration and peach-striped borders, from a Simons Maison exclusive designed in Canada. The laminated paper/MDF top with a cork backing is heat resistant up to 90 °C (194 °F) and wipes clean with a damp cloth for easy everyday care. Note that the 90 °C limit means very hot cookware is not covered, and matching pieces are sold separately if you want to extend the look.[4,5] | Forest Birds Laminated Cork Placemats Set Of 4: Choose this if you want a set of 4 easy-care placemats with a nature-inspired look: white laminated faces printed with watercolor-style birds on leafy branches, backed in cork, and sized 11.5 by 15.75 inches. They wipe clean with a damp cloth and are heat resistant up to 90 degrees C (194 degrees F), so hot items above that temperature are not covered. Matching pieces are sold separately if you want to extend the table setting.[6,7] |
