Howdens Aged Oak Effect Laminate Kitchen Upstand | 2.79m x 19mm

Complete Your Kitchen With an Aged Oak Effect Upstand

Bring warmth and natural character to your kitchen with the Howdens Aged Oak Effect Laminate Kitchen Upstand. Designed to coordinate with matching Aged Oak work surfaces, this 2.79m upstand combines the character of timber with the practicality and easy maintenance of laminate.

Its warm grey-oak colouring and grained wood-effect finish create a realistic natural appearance, while the square-edge profile provides a clean finishing detail.

Realistic Aged Oak Wood-Grain Effect

The Aged Oak Effect offers the character of natural timber without the regular maintenance associated with a solid wood surface.

Its warm grey-oak tones make it particularly versatile for contemporary, rustic, shaker and industrial-style kitchens, pairing well with neutral, dark and natural cabinetry.

Pair it with a matching Aged Oak Effect Laminate Worktop for a coordinated finish across the kitchen.

Durable & Low-Maintenance Laminate

Manufactured from laminate with a chipboard core, this upstand provides a hardwearing and easy-care surface suitable for busy kitchens.

The laminate construction requires minimal maintenance, while the upstand helps conceal the joint where the worktop meets the wall and protects the area against moisture.
