Laminate Kitchen Worktops

We stock a wide range of Laminate kitchen worktops from several manufacturers so that you can be sure we have the worktop for your dream kitchen.

Omega Laminate Kitchen Worktops

Omega laminate kitchen worktops manufactured by Bushboard

The Omega collection is an exercise in laminate innovation demonstrating the material's vast potential to deliver a lasting impression.

Building on the hugely successful development of the Strass metallic concept, 4 new quartz designs in Ruby, Cinder, Vanilla and Chocolate have been introduced. With 3 new pearlescent splashbacks and two stunning Rococo frosted gloss effects, we're certain that you'll find the perfect look.

Laminate worktops are still overwhelmingly the most popular choices of work surface in the UK, and Bush Board Omega Laminates are one of the top Laminate Worktops.

At the time of writing, Omega laminate worktops are available in 58 colours and finishes. These range from wood, granite and solid surface reproduction to more outlandish and imaginative patterns and designs. The leading edges of a Omega Laminate surface can be profiled in two contemporary profiles, with matching upstands and splashbacks being are available for a number of the decors.

As with all laminate worktops, it is hard to get completely seamless joints between Omega Laminate worktop sections. If fitted correctly, the joints will still look neat and relatively inconspicuous; they just won�t be invisible as with our solid surface worktops.

Care and Maintenance Laminate Kitchen Worktops

Continual investment, combined with a real passion for our business, means we use the latest technologies and manufacturing techniques to keep our products at the forefront of our industry. As a sign of their quality, all Bushboard worksurfaces carry the FIRA Gold Award for quality from the Furniture Industry Research Association.

All Bushboard worksurfaces are endorsed as environmentally preferred with FSC or PEFC certifi cation, guaranteeing that the chipboard used comes from environmentally managed and sustainable sources. In addition, we recycle paper, plastic, cardboard and process waste from our factory to reduce the impact of our business on the environment.

Cleaning Laminate Kitchen Worktops

Your Bushboard worksurface is very easy to maintain. For everyday cleaning simply wipe over with your favourite detergent diluted with water. Persistent marks can be removed using a non-abrasive cream cleaner and a gentle circular rubbing action to the affected area. Gloss worksurfaces require a little more care. After cleaning with detergent and water as described above, buff over the surface with a clean, dry soft cloth to maintain its glossy looks. Please never ever use scouring powders or abrasive pads on any worksurface as they can damage the surface.

Please take care to protect your worksurface from direct contact with heat. For example, you should never place cooking utensils directly from the oven or hob onto the worksurface. Always use protective mats. Also, please avoid placing electric kettles and deep fat fryers over worksurface joints; certain models can generate excessive heat which may degrade your joint allowing moisture to penetrate.

Metallic decors: metallic fi nishes provide a gorgeous fashion finish, but should be treated with extra care. Due to the refl ective nature of the metallic particles, application of heat may result in some movement of the protective overlay. Always use a mat or trivet to protect the surface if your utensil is too hot to handle.

Scratching

Never cut directly onto any worksurface: a chopping board should always be used to protect the surface from cut marks. Your Bushboard worksurface is remarkably resistant to the every day sliding of crockery and utensils across the worksurface. Gloss and smoother textures require extra care and attention as do very dark decors. Being a highly reflective fi nish gloss will tend to show scuffs and scratches more readily than more heavily textured finishes. We cannot accept responsibility for the performance of the gloss laminate fi nish with respect to marks and scuffs.

Moisture

Bushboard worksurfaces are sealed to protect against water penetration but we advise that you immediately wipe up any water spillages, especially around the front edge and any joints. In addition, take care not to let moisture lie on joints eg from a wet cloth, as this can also lead to water ingress.

Dishwashers, washing machines, tumble-driers and ovens

Every Bushboard worksurface is supplied factory sealed along the front edge and underside. However, please follow a couple of simple rules to prevent excess moisture causing potential damage to the worksurface and adjacent units. First, make sure any appliance door seals are intact to prevent steam escaping in use. Secondly, don�t open your dishwasher until it has cooled down. This prevents steam escaping and condensing on the adjacent units and worksurface.

Staining

Your Bushboard worksurface is resistant to most common household chemicals or foodstuffs, including alcohol and cosmetics. Some items may cause staining. For good practice, we advise that any spillage is wiped off straight away.
