What it is: A protective pad made of diatomaceous earth (kieselgur) and rubber, designed to sit on top of household appliances and small furniture to absorb moisture, prevent scratches, and reduce slipping. Key benefits Rapid moisture absorption: The diatomaceous earth layer soaks up humidity quickly, keeping the appliance surface dry and preventing water marks or damp buildup. Anti-slip stability: A rubber surface provides strong grip and prevents the pad — and items placed on it — from sliding. Scratch and dust protection: Acts as a barrier between appliances and objects (bottles, tools, decor), reducing surface scratches and helping keep tops dust-free. Custom fit and easy care: Cut to size with scissors or a cutter for a perfect fit. Wipe clean or wash in a machine at 30 °C or hand wash when needed. Features and specifications Material: Kieselgur (diatomaceous earth) + rubber backing. Performance: Fast moisture absorption; strong adhesion from rubber to limit movement. Sizes: Multiple size options available to fit most standard refrigerators, microwaves, ovens, washing machines, dryers, small coffee tables, nightstands and other common kitchen or laundry appliances. Design: Minimalist look that fits a variety of interior styles. Practical uses (real-world scenarios) Laundry room: Place on top of your washing machine or dryer to protect the surface from detergent bottles, laundry baskets and tools while absorbing any residual moisture. Kitchen appliances: Use under a microwave, toaster or on a refrigerator top to prevent slipping and collect condensation or spills from jars and bottles. Living spaces: Cut to size and use on a small coffee table or nightstand to protect wood or painted surfaces from vases, cups and decorative items. Care and installation Trim with scissors or a cutter for a custom fit. Wipe clean for everyday maintenance.
