Melamine construction

Melamine is a manufactured wood product, constructed from particleboard or small pieces of wood glued and pressed together, covered with a plasticised coating. It is a hard resin commonly used as an overlay for building materials like MDF or plywood. Melamine is a laminate, but not all laminates are melamine.

The Certified International Portofino 12-piece dinnerware set is made from 100% durable heavyweight melamine. Melamine is a great option for dinnerware as it is durable, scratch and shatter-resistant, and waterproof. It is also inexpensive and can be produced in a wide variety of colours and finishes.

Melamine is heavier than veneer-core plywood, which makes it fatiguing to work with. However, it has a consistent thickness throughout the panel, which is not the case with plywood.

Melamine is hard yet brittle, so it chips easily. It is also slippery, so it can be difficult to get a good grip on it. It is important to be careful when handling melamine as sliding it around on a table saw can scratch the surface.

Melamine is not suitable for use in the microwave. It is also not suitable for use with hot water or steam, as the heat and moisture can cause the melamine to distort and the particleboard underneath to pick up odours.

Dishwasher-safe

The Certified International Portofino 12-piece dinnerware set is dishwasher-safe. The set is made from durable heavyweight melamine, making it perfect for indoor or outdoor everyday use. The set includes four 11" dinner plates, four 9" salad/dessert plates, and four 7.5" all-purpose bowls. The set is not suitable for microwave use.

The Certified International Portofino collection also includes a 2-piece melamine platter set and a hostess set, which are also dishwasher-safe. The platter set includes a 14" round platter and an 18" x 13.5" oval platter, while the hostess set includes a sugar bowl with a lid and a creamer.

Intricate and beautiful patterns decorate the Certified International Portofino collection, designed by Nancy Green, offering a taste of the Mediterranean for your outdoor or indoor dining and entertainment.
