Performance and appearance are equally important in a kitchen worktop. It needs to stand up to a variety of uses - from preparing dinner to helping with the kids' homework - and it must co-ordinate with the frontals.

All our laminate worktops are tested to BS6222 Part 3 - for scratch and impact resistance, wet and dry heat, and staining. Selected 28mm laminate worktops comply with BS EN 312: (2003) Type P3 for moisture resistance of chipboard substrate.
