Natural Oak Effect Laminate Kitchen Upstand

Complete your kitchen with the Howdens Natural Oak Effect Laminate Kitchen Upstand, designed to coordinate with matching natural oak-effect work surfaces for a clean, professional finish.

Combining the warm appearance of natural timber with the practicality of laminate, this 3m kitchen upstand is an easy way to introduce a classic oak look without the maintenance requirements of solid wood.

Realistic Natural Oak Appearance

The Natural Oak Effect features a timber-inspired pattern with a grained finish, helping recreate the character and texture of real wood.

Its versatile natural colouring works particularly well with white, cream, green, grey and neutral cabinetry and suits contemporary, shaker, Scandinavian and traditional kitchen designs.

Pair it with the matching Natural Oak Effect Laminate Worktop for a coordinated finish throughout your kitchen.

Durable & Easy to Maintain

Manufactured from laminate with a chipboard core, this upstand is designed for practical everyday kitchen use.

The smooth, easy-clean surface helps make maintenance straightforward, while the upstand protects the joint where the worktop meets the wall against water ingress and accumulated grime.

Professional Bullnose Finish

Measuring 3000mm long × 70mm high × 19mm thick, the upstand provides ample material for longer kitchen runs and helps minimise unnecessary joins.

The bullnose edge with a 3mm radius creates a smooth finished profile that coordinates neatly with matching oak-effect work surfaces.
