Perfect for the environmentally conscious consumer, this hot mat is created using recycled materials by the Women's Multipurpose Cooperative in Baguio City, Philippines. An innovative process turns old newspapers into new products by wrapping the paper into coils and forming them into spiraled square building blocks. These blocks are joined with thread and/or glue and starched. Product has been tested and should stand up to heat and moisture that comes with average use.
