Our laminate worktops are the perfect alternative to acrylic based, granite and stone worktops at a fraction of the price.

Colour coded upstands and splashbacks are also available for most of our laminate worktops.
Melamine resin is the hardest of all synthetically produced organic materials. This is the reason for the high scratch and wear resistance of HPL. The high impact resistance of the material is due to the elasticity of phenolic resin. These properties also explain the high resistance of HPL to chemicals and heat. Burning a cigarette on the surface of HPL is one of the quality tests specified in BS/EN 438, which also determines all the other qualities important for the user. However, the bottoms of some saucepans can become extremely hot and we recommend using a protective pad.
