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

Oak Effect Laminate Worktop Edging Strip

Give exposed worktop edges a clean, professional finish with the Howdens Oak Effect Laminate Worktop Edging Strip.

Designed to coordinate with the matching Howdens Oak Effect bullnose worktop, this 1.4m edging strip conceals exposed cut edges while continuing the natural oak-inspired appearance across the finished work surface.

Natural Oak Effect Finish

The Oak Effect design recreates the warm appearance of natural timber, making it a versatile choice for both contemporary and traditional kitchens.

Using matching edging on visible worktop ends maintains a consistent wood-effect finish and prevents the internal worktop core from being left exposed.

Finishes & Protects Cut Worktop Edges

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

Howdens states that this matching edging strip helps hide the worktop core and protect it from damage, creating a cleaner and more professional finished edge.

Simple Installation

The edging can be fitted using double-sided tape or contact adhesive. Howdens advises aligning the edging with the top of the worktop and allowing it to overhang at the bottom before trimming the excess out of sight.

This version measures 1.4m long × 38mm wide, making it particularly suitable for finishing exposed ends without purchasing excessive edging material.
