Easy to install and maintain, with a sleek square edge for a classic finish. The warm caramel tones and woodgrain texture are perfect for any kitchen scheme. Mountain Oak is a planked wood effect laminate worktop with realistic looking knots and imperfections, and a Wooden Heart texture – so it looks and feels like wood, with the high performance of laminate. In a natural warm brown, the Mountain Oak laminate worktop will be equally at home in a cosy rustic space or contemporary inspired kitchen. Match with a Mountain Oak breakfast bar and upstand.
The Wilsonart Mountain Oak Square Edge Worktop 38mm is designed for homeowners and kitchen designers seeking the natural look of wood with the durability of laminate. This worktop provides a warm, inviting aesthetic and is easy to maintain. However, while it mimics real wood, it's important to note that the texture, while realistic, is a laminate finish and requires appropriate care.
