Kitchenware & Bakeware
Silicone bakeware is judged on two things: whether it passes food-contact testing, and whether it still releases cleanly after a thousand bakes.
We supply HTV and LSR grades for cake moulds, baking mats, spatulas, ice-cube trays and collapsible containers. The compounds are formulated for repeated oven exposure up to 230 °C, freezer storage down to −40 °C, and dishwasher cycles without hardening, hazing or losing shape.
Because these parts touch food directly, every batch ships with a COA and can be accompanied by FDA 21 CFR 177.2600 and LFGB §30/31 test reports. For customers selling into the EU we also issue REACH and PAHS declarations, and can arrange third-party migration testing on the specific grade you buy.
Food-contact approval
FDA and LFGB reports tied to the batch, not to a generic data sheet.
Thermal cycling
Oven at 230 °C straight to a −40 °C freezer without cracking or permanent deformation.
Clean release
Low surface tack so a cake comes out without greasing the mould every time.
No taste or odour transfer
VOM-controlled grades for enclosed and flavour-sensitive contact.
Material Ranges Used in This Sector
These are the product lines we normally quote for Kitchenware & Bakeware. If your part needs something outside them, tell us the requirement — custom formulation is a normal request, not an exception.
HTV Silicone Rubber
HTV silicone rubber from 10 to 80 Shore A: general purpose, high strength, high transparency, flame retardant and thermal conductive grades.
LSR Liquid Silicone Rubber
Two-part liquid silicone rubber for injection moulding and LSR parts: low viscosity, fast cure, high transparency, medical and food contact grades.
Silicone Colorant
Silicone colour masterbatch and pigments for HTV and LSR — consistent dispersion, no cure inhibition, custom colour matching available.
What Ships With the Material
Every lot leaves with paperwork. What changes by sector is which documents your customer will ask to see.
- COA per batch — hardness, tensile strength, elongation, tear strength and specific gravity on the lot you receive.
- TDS — full curing and processing guidance, not a marketing sheet.
- Compliance declarations — FDA, LFGB, RoHS, REACH, PAHS and VOM as applicable to the grade.
- Third-party test reports — arranged on the specific grade you buy, through SGS or an equivalent laboratory.
Certificate copies are available for download, and we can issue a declaration naming your market and application.
Questions Buyers Ask About Kitchenware & Bakeware
Most bakeware sits between 40 and 60 Shore A. Thin mats usually run 50–60 A so they stay flat on the tray; deeper moulds run 40–50 A so the cake releases without tearing at the wall.
Yes. Colourants are matched against your Pantone or RAL reference and supplied as food-contact-compliant masterbatch, so the finished part is approved at the same time as the base compound.
We arrange third-party migration testing through SGS or an equivalent laboratory on the grade you actually buy. Lead time depends on the test house — we confirm the schedule before booking rather than quoting a number we cannot hold.
