Question 1

Is it bpa free?

Accepted Answer

Yes - our placemats (and posters) are made from polypropylene, a non-toxic plastic known as a type 5 plastic and often used for food products such as yoghurt and margarine containers, ketchup bottles etc.  It is accepted as being the safest of all plastics. Our placemats are also made in Great Britain and use child-friendly inks that are EN71 compliant - check carefully if you're thinking of buying cheap imports!Regards-Little Wigwam.

Question 2

what thismade of and is it robust?

Accepted Answer

Our placemats are made of top quality polypropylene which is a type of plastic that is 100% recyclable (in fact, unlike cardboard, it's re-recyclable!).  The polypropylene is first primed, then printed with child-safe inks, and finally it is sealed with a UV-resistant sealant (child-safe as well of course!) - the print cannot either fade or "wash off", it would require scraping through the UV sealant and then the ink, neither of which will happen if the mat is wiped clean after use with a soft cloth!  And unlike laminated paper mats they will not peal or come apart no matter how many times they are wiped or have drinks spilt on them :-)  Our own kids still use their original mats from over 5 years ago.  Regards -Little Wigwam.

Question 3

i need to know the size please? thanks

Accepted Answer

Our placemats are a very large 420 x 297mm which is A3 size (ie. twice the size of a sheet of A4 paper!) - that's large enough for a large plate and cup AND the inevitable spillages! :-) It also means the plate doesn't cover the whole design so kids can still easily see parts of the design and the border whilst eating.Regards-Little Wigwam.

Question 4

Will suction plates stick to it?

Accepted Answer

I brought this mat and used suction plates and bowls and they worked fine
