Why

Ziploc bags are made of polyethylene, which can withstand typical dishwasher temperatures. However, the high heat and water pressure may cause the bag to warp, melt, or lose its seal integrity. Additionally, the bag may trap water and not dry properly, leading to mold.

How do you wash Ziploc Storage Bag?

Hand wash with warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and air dry upside down. Avoid using abrasive sponges.
