Baking Mats & Tray Liners

Best Baking Mats & Tray Liners for Commercial Bakeries & Kitchens

Baking mats and tray liners provide a reusable nonstick surface that eliminates the need for parchment paper, pan sprays, and greasing. These commercial-grade liners sit directly on sheet pans and baking trays, creating an even cooking surface that promotes consistent browning and easy food release. For bakeries, restaurants, and institutional kitchens producing high volumes of baked goods, quality baking mats reduce waste, save money, and deliver better results than disposable alternatives.

Silicone and PTFE (Teflon) are the two primary materials used in commercial baking mats. Silicone mats offer flexibility and durability with excellent nonstick properties, making them ideal for cookies, pastries, and sticky items like caramel. PTFE-coated fiberglass liners provide superior heat resistance and an extremely slick surface that works well for delicate items and high-temperature applications. Both materials withstand thousands of uses when properly cared for, making them a cost-effective replacement for single-use liners.

At GoFoodservice, we offer baking mats and tray liners from Browne Foodservice, Essentialware, SilikoMart, TableCraft, Thunder Group, and Vollrath, trusted brands known for durable, food-safe baking accessories.

Why Choose Reusable Baking Mats?

Reusable baking mats eliminate the ongoing cost of parchment paper and pan sprays. A quality silicone or PTFE mat lasts through thousands of baking cycles, quickly paying for itself compared to disposable alternatives. For high-volume bakeries running multiple sheet pans through the oven every day, the savings add up significantly over time. The environmental benefit of reducing paper waste is an added advantage.

Consistent results are another major benefit of baking mats. The even surface promotes uniform heat distribution across the bottom of baked goods, reducing hot spots that cause uneven browning. The reliable nonstick release means cookies, pastries, and breads come off the pan cleanly without sticking or breaking. This consistency matters when you're producing dozens or hundreds of identical items that need to look and taste the same.

Cleanup becomes faster and easier with baking mats. Instead of scrubbing baked-on residue from sheet pans, staff simply wipe down or rinse the mats. The nonstick surface releases most residue with minimal effort, and mats can be washed in a commercial dishwasher. This time savings adds up throughout busy production days, allowing staff to focus on baking rather than scrubbing pans.

What to Look for in Baking Mats & Tray Liners

Choosing the right baking mats depends on your equipment, products, and production volume. Several factors help determine which materials and sizes best fit your operation.
