How do I care for Corning glass products?

Caring for Corning glass products is quite simple and allows you to enjoy their benefits for many years. First, it is advisable to allow the glass products to cool down before cleaning in order to prevent thermal shock. Most Corning glassware is dishwasher safe, but for finer items, hand washing with a mild detergent and a soft sponge is recommended. It is important to avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. When using Corning glass in the oven or microwave, always follow the manufacturer's guidelines regarding temperature limits. Avoid sudden changes in temperature, such as placing a hot dish on a cold surface. For storage, stack items carefully to prevent scratching. To maintain their shine, avoid exposing them to excessive heat or direct flames. For detailed care instructions, please visit the relevant sections on the current Corning website.
