All 15 grill mats PFAS Authority has graded score below its 70 point pass mark for PFAS and other toxins, as of October 2026.
The full ranking is below, best-graded first, with every score linking to the evidence behind it. Nothing here clears our buy threshold yet, so the least-concerning options come first.
Are grill mats safe?
None of the 15 grill mats we graded come back low-concern on our screen. Our grades are model-based assessments built from published materials, ingredient lists, certifications and brand disclosures, not laboratory tests, so they say what we can evidence rather than that anything is safe.

Why Weber Bbq Silicone Mat for Weber, Scratch grades highest here, and why that is not a pass
Every grade on this page is one sum. A category starts from a baseline, each disclosed material or coating adds risk points, and each thing the brand or a third party has published takes them away. Below is that sum for the winner, then for 3 products it beats, so you can see exactly where the 60 points between the top and the bottom of this grill & oven mats ranking come from. Nothing in this category reaches our 70 point pass mark, so this is the shape of the field rather than a recommendation.
