Visible joints or gaps
If using multiple pieces, ensure precise cuts are made. For seamless joins, use a sealant suitable for laminate surfaces. Ensure the wall and worktop are level to minimize gaps.
Surface scratching
Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials or placing hot pans directly on the surface. Use chopping boards and trivets to protect the laminate.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Zenith Marmo Treviso Upstand is designed for straightforward installation. It should be adhered to the wall and worktop using a suitable waterproof adhesive recommended for laminate surfaces. Ensure the wall and worktop edge are clean, dry, and free from dust before application. Measure and cut the upstand to the required length using a fine-toothed saw or a laminate cutter for a clean edge. Apply adhesive evenly to the back of the upstand or the wall surface as per the adhesive manufacturer's instructions, then press firmly into place.
Compatibility: This upstand is designed to bridge the gap between most standard kitchen worktops and wall cabinets. It is compatible with a wide range of worktop styles due to its neutral marble effect. Ensure the gap between your worktop and wall cabinets is no more than 95mm in height for a perfect fit. It can be cut to size to fit specific lengths or corner sections.
Care: To maintain the appearance and hygiene of your Zenith Marmo Treviso Upstand, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch or damage the laminate surface. Wipe up spills immediately to prevent staining. Ensure the edges remain well-sealed to prevent moisture ingress.
