This cheese mat is presented in a pack of 1 and is 200mm (8") square.  It is manufactured from high quality 'Dairythene', a Nylon type material that is designed exclusively for dairying and cheese production. The mat has an exceptionally long working life and can be sterilised repeatedly for total hygiene.

For cheesemaking, it is usual to place the cheese mat under the cheese mould to assist in the drainage of the whey from the curds. The mat will fit easily under e.g. the Cheese and Yougurt making Cheese press and allows simple drainage whilst the pressing takes place.

The use of the matting allows the proper circulation of air around all parts of the cheese whilst keeping the cheese raised from the shelf so that moisture cannot accumulate.

The matting is also available in 1 metre wide rolls, sold by the linear metre: the wider material is used for lining shelves etc. when storing and maturing hard cheeses over prolonged periods. Please enquire with regard to this.

We sell over 100 items in our eBay shop, that vary in weight from 3g to 50kg, so I'm sure you can appreciate that it is impossible to devise a postage system that covers every possible purchase combination! That is why we stress that if customers are buying multiple items, then please ask for an invoice first; that way it gives us a chance to correct the postage part accordingly.
