Stone benchtops are built to last, but they don't love extreme heat.
Always use a trivet or heat-resistant mat under hot pots, pans, baking dishes, and small appliances like electric frypans. Placing hot items directly on your benchtop can cause damage that's easily avoided.
A simple habit like using a trivet helps keep your benchtop looking its best for years to come.
