Quick answer

Yes, most Mepal drinkbekers, including the Campus schoolbeker, are dishwasher safe. Place them on the top rack and avoid high heat to keep them looking great.

Why top rack matters

Mepal drinkbekers are designed for everyday use, and the dishwasher is a convenient way to clean them. However, the top rack is gentler and keeps the cup away from the heating element, which can cause warping or fading over time.

If your cup has a print, like the PAW Patrol or Star Wars designs, the top rack also helps preserve the artwork. High heat and harsh detergents can dull prints faster than you'd expect.

Hand washing as a gentler option

While the dishwasher is fine for most Mepal cups, hand washing with warm soapy water is the gentlest way to care for them. This is especially true if you want to keep the colors and prints vibrant for as long as possible.

For cups with straws or small parts, hand washing can also help you reach every nook and cranny, ensuring no milk or juice residue is left behind.
