Howdens Black Granite Effect Laminate Worktop Edging Strip | 1.4m x 38mm

Black Granite Effect Laminate Worktop Edging Strip

Give exposed worktop edges a neat, professional finish with the Howdens Black Granite Effect Laminate Worktop Edging Strip.

Designed specifically to coordinate with the matching Black Granite Effect bullnose worktop, this 1.4m edging strip conceals exposed cut edges while continuing the dark granite-inspired appearance across the finished work surface.

Classic Black Granite Effect

The Black Granite Effect recreates the appearance of dark natural stone while coordinating with a practical laminate kitchen worktop.

Its dark finish works particularly well in modern, contemporary and traditional kitchens and provides a strong contrast against lighter kitchen cabinetry.

Using matching edging on visible worktop ends maintains the granite-effect appearance and creates a much more professional finished installation.

Covers & Protects Exposed Worktop Edges

When a laminate worktop is cut to length, the internal core becomes exposed.

Howdens states that this matching edging strip is designed to hide the laminate's inner core and help protect it from damage.

This makes edging particularly important on visible worktop ends where the surface has been cut during installation.

Easy to Fit & Trim

The edging can be fitted using contact adhesive or double-sided tape. Howdens recommends aligning the strip with the top of the worktop, leaving the excess at the bottom and then trimming it so the cut edge remains out of sight.

Although sold for a 38mm worktop, the laminate edging itself is supplied at 43mm wide to allow for manufacturing tolerances and accurate trimming during installation.
