Never before has there been so much choice available in kitchen worksurfaces, with so many materials, patterns, colours as well as qualities it can be daunting to say the least. Below gives a little information about each material class that we offer along with their respective qualities.

Laminate Worktops

Melamine resin is the hardest of all synthetically produced organic materials and is why it is so resistant to scratches and wear, chemicals and heat.

Laminate offers an exciting and versatile range of high quality and durable worktops. From walnut to oak and concrete to marble, there is a colour, pattern and finish to suit every interior.    

  • Hard wearing
  • Scratch resistant
  •  Colour safe
  • Completely heat resistant
  • Hygienic and suitable for food preparation
  • Available in a huge range of attractive colours, patterns and textures
  • Matching upstands and splashbacks


Quartz Worktops

Quartz worktops are fabricated from natural quartz, one of the hardest minerals found in the Earth, and small amounts of glass or metallic flecks are added to create variety, resulting in beautiful worktops. 

Generally only diamond is a naturally harder material than Granite, which is why Granite really is the natural material of choice for your kitchen worktops. Nothing else is harder wearing or as scratch resistant.
