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

Onyx Blackstone Effect Laminate Worktop Edging Strip

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

Designed to coordinate with matching Onyx Blackstone Effect laminate worktops, this 1.4m edging strip conceals the exposed chipboard core after a worktop has been cut while maintaining the same distinctive dark finish across the completed surface.

Matching Onyx Blackstone Finish

The Onyx Blackstone Effect features a dark black palette designed to create a bold, refined kitchen surface.

Using matching edging on exposed worktop ends maintains a consistent appearance rather than leaving the internal chipboard core visible.

It's particularly useful when cutting a worktop to length or where an exposed end will remain visible after installation.

Protects Exposed Worktop Edges

The edging doesn't just improve appearance. Howdens states that it helps protect the exposed laminate core from chipping, strengthening vulnerable cut edges.

This makes matching edging an important finishing component when installing laminate kitchen worktops.

Glue-Fit Installation

The edging strip is installed using adhesive and should be aligned with the top of the worktop before being trimmed at the bottom.

Howdens notes that its laminate edging is manufactured oversized to allow for tolerances during fitting, so the material is intended to be trimmed for a clean finished edge.
