Olympus Marble Laminate
Olympus Marble takes its cues from the real thing, with an understated soft grey base and delicate flowing veins. At 23mm with a clean square edge, it's slim and unfussy – equally at home in a sharp modern kitchen or a more traditional space that requires something smart.
Lunar Marble Laminate
Inspired by the swirling textures of a lunar landscape, Lunar Marble features a cool grey base layered with intricate marble patterns. Like Olympus, the non-repeating design gives it an authenticity that holds up to closer inspection. The slim profile and clean edge keep things streamlined, making it a natural fit for contemporary kitchens.
What to Read Next
Aurora Marble Laminate
Aurora Marble is the classic choice, with a crisp white base and striking gold veining. Designed to evoke the dramatic beauty of natural stone, its textured matt finish is practical enough for a genuinely busy kitchen, easy to clean and resistant to the kind of daily wear that tends to humble more precious-looking surfaces.
Rosso Marble Laminate
Rosso Marble is the most confident of the lot, with dramatic red tones cut through with pale marble veining. Created for homeowners looking to make a statement, it has the feel of a luxurious quartz or marble, while maintaining the affordability and practicality of laminate.
Burnt Sienna Compact Laminate
Burnt Sienna is built to withstand the demands of daily life. The rich, earthy tones work particularly well in modern kitchens, and despite its ultra-slim profile, the compact laminate construction is seriously robust. Scratch, abrasion and impact resistant, and heat tolerant up to 220°C, it's the perfect worktop for keen cooks.
Shadow Marble Compact Laminate
Shadow Marble pairs a dark stone aesthetic with delicate copper veining – a combination that feels utterly elegant. Designed for durability as well as style, the compact laminate construction offers excellent resistance to heat and everyday wear, making it a practical choice for sophisticated but busy homes.
Chestnut Heartwood Compact Laminate
For those who want something warmer, the deep tones and subtle woodgrain detailing of the Chestnut Heartwood delivers in spades. A slim profile keeps it modern rather than rustic, bringing the natural character of timber into a contemporary kitchen. Like the rest of our compact laminates, it's built to handle the demands of everyday life.
