A fast drying stone dish mat made from natural diatomaceous earth. It absorbs water instantly and evaporates moisture within minutes, keeping benchtops clean and dry. A durable, low maintenance alternative to traditional fabric dish drying mats, designed for everyday kitchen use.
Clean Ingredients / Materials
Made from excellent, non-toxic materials. Natural diatomaceous earth, recycled paper fibres and mineral lime. Independently tested and certified asbestos free by an Australian NATA accredited lab.
Ethical Practices
Natureva manufactures products in China with a trusted, long-term partner under the amfori BSCI framework, following a rigorous supplier selection process that includes verification by SGS for raw material identification and traceability. The chosen supplier has over 20 years of expertise and strong certification standards, with direct relationships enabling close oversight of production quality and ethical standards. Strict policies prohibit child labour and forced labour and no animal-derived materials or animal testing is involved.
Sustainable Practices
Natureva uses natural materials including diatomaceous earth, recycled post-consumer paper fibres and mineral lime, resulting in a compostable product that is free from synthetic fibres and microplastics. The product is designed as a long-lasting alternative to traditional fabric dish drying mats, reducing replacement frequency and ongoing water and energy use. Packaging is 100% recyclable, primarily kraft paper and optimised to minimise excess space, with sea freight used exclusively to reduce transport emissions.
Social Impact
Natureva supports domestic employment and operational infrastructure by partnering with Australian service providers, including FirstPage, New Wave Accounting and local fulfilment and delivery services. Orders are shipped from Australia, with most products dispatched through Amazon’s Ship in Own Packaging program to minimise excess packaging and a transition to in-house Australian warehousing with carbon neutral delivery is planned. Within 1–2 years, a portion of profits will be allocated to structured giving initiatives such as WaterAid, 1% for the Planet frameworks, or Greening Australia’s Reef Aid program.
Product Reviews by Experts
It’s one of those kitchen items that solves an everyday problem in a really clever way. I was impressed by how quickly it absorbed water and dried, helping keep the benchtop looking clean and tidy without the dampness that can often come with traditional dish mats. I also appreciated that it requires very little maintenance and feels like a more elevated alternative to fabric drying mats. It’s a practical product that quietly improves a daily task and makes the kitchen feel more organised. I was impressed by the brand’s focus on creating long-lasting, low-maintenance products that help reduce waste over time. The use of natural materials, recyclable packaging and a product design that eliminates the need for frequent washing demonstrates a thoughtful approach to sustainability.
Its lightweight design made it easy to use without cleaning and bashing around the dishwashing area. I appreciated the lack of sink area dribble that often occurs under our drying rack. As someone who lives in the Byron Bay region, I fully support the company’s goal to reduce mould and dampness in homes around Australia.
I like that it solves a common household problem in a simple, low-maintenance way. The natural materials and quick-drying performance make it feel like a practical alternative to traditional dish mats. I appreciated the transparency around manufacturing and the thoughtful supplier selection process. The use of natural materials, ethical supply chain oversight and clearly stated future sustainability goals all stood out.
