Are these plastic panels? Could they be used behind a stove/cooktop?

8 years ago

I am looking for an easy care backsplash for my kitchen. I am concerned that these panels might be plastic that would not hold up well to kitchen duty or heat from the cooktop.

Thank you for your interest in our products! Even though the backsplash panels are fire-retardant, they can be deformed by excessive heat (over 140 degrees Fahrenheit). The panels can be installed behind a stove if the stove has a control panel. Be sure to keep stovetop burners, toaster ovens, cooking ranges, etc., 6 inches away from the panel's surface. The fasade backsplash panels can be cleaned with water and a mild soap.( like Dawn dish soap). With proper care the Fasade backsplash panels should outlast the lifetime of your kitchen.

Please let me know if you have further questions or concerns.
