General Product FAQs
Are Smash products Dishwasher safe?
Whilst some Smash products are considered top rack dishwasher safe, this is highly dependant on the material the product is made from.
For product specific information, please refer to the product packaging or the markings on the base of the product to determine if it is top rack dishwasher safe or handwash only. You can find additional information on the specific product page on our website.
If your product features a printed design, we often recommend hand washing to extend the life of your product. This includes when the product is marked as top rack dishwasher safe.
How do I clean my Smash product?
To prolong the life of your Smash product we recommend you follow the basic cleaning guidelines below:
– Before use, wash your new Smash product by hand in warm soapy water.
– DO NOT clean with abrasive soaps or scouring pads.
– DO NOT use chemicals such as bleach.
– Always allow the product to fully air dry prior to reassembling or storing.
Insulated lunch or cooler bags – we recommend using a warm damp cloth to wipe the product inside and out. Please ensure the bag material is allowed to fully air dry prior to storing.
Water Bottles – refer to the specific cleaning recommendations on each bottle. If the bottle is top rack dishwasher safe, simply separate the bottle base and cap, place in the top rack of the dishwasher and then ensure they are left to fully air dry before reassembling. If the bottle is recommended as hand wash only, separate the cap from the base and use warm soapy water and a bottle brush to get into all corners and crevices. Allow to air dry thoroughly before reassembling or storing.
Please note even if your water bottle is top rack dishwasher safe, you can extend it’s life by hand washing.
Lunch Boxes and Plastic Containers – the majority of Smash lunch products will be top rack dishwasher safe but please refer to the base of the product to confirm.

For best results, please ensure that the starting temperature of your contents is as warm as possible, filled to maximum capacity and the lid is sealed properly.

Carefully tip out the boiling water and fill with your hot food.
