There are many worktops available for today’s kitchens ranging from man-made products such as Corian and laminate to natural materials like Granite and wood. Advances in technology also mean that contemporary kitchens are increasingly seen with worktops made from concrete and other new materials.

Worktops Laminate

The laminate worktops are manufactured to exacting standards, which makes them highly resistant to impact, scratching and moisture. Boiling water and cooking splashes do no harm to the surface of the worktop.

The surface only requires cleaning with a warm damp cloth and a mild detergent or non-abrasive cream cleaner diluted on warm water. Abrasive scourers should be avoided. For a textured surface a soft nylon nailbrush can be used. We would recommend using a heat resistant mat and stress that objects taken directly from the oven of hob should never be placed directly onto the work surface, this may cause blistering. Never cut foodstuffs directly on the surface, always use a chopping board for preparation. Critical areas on any laminate work surface are around joints and cutouts. Spilt liquids should be wiped away immediately to avoid ingress and potential damage.

We do not recommend placing appliances such as kettles, toasters or any appliance with a heat source directly over a worktop joint, this will, over a prolonged period of time cause the joint to expand and bulge.
