Artisan Oak White Laminate Worktop

A near-white oak with faint grain and small pale knots, light enough to read as bleached timber. The decor is made as a 38mm postformed laminate worktop in the white worktops family, together with an upstand and splashback to match.

Thickness and edge
Size

What's an upstand?

Upstand, 100mm highWorktop 100mm high 22mm thick Silicone bead 600mm deep worktop Wall

What it is

A 100mm-high strip in Artisan Oak White, the same decor as your worktop. It sits along the back edge of the worktop, against the wall.

Why you need one

Walls are rarely straight, so there's nearly always a gap between worktop and wall. An upstand covers it, stops water and crumbs getting down the back, and gives a neat finished line. It's the simplest, cheapest way to finish a worktop.

Sizes

    Most kitchens need one length per wall run.

    Fitting

    Cut it to length with a fine-tooth saw and bond it to the wall with grab adhesive. Run a bead of clear or matching silicone along the bottom edge, and finish any exposed ends with an end cap.

    Upstand or splashback?

    Choose an upstand if you're tiling above the worktop, or want the cheapest neat finish. Choose a splashback behind the hob or sink, or if you want no tiles at all. Lots of kitchens use both.

    Read the full fitting guide

    What's a splashback?

    Splashbackupstand heightHob and oven 640mm high 10mm thick Worktop Wall

    What it is

    A full-height panel in Artisan Oak White, the same decor as your worktop, fixed to the wall behind the hob or sink.

    Why choose one

    One continuous wipe-clean surface with no grout lines, so there's nothing to stain or scrub between tiles. It protects the wall from splashes and cooking grease, and makes the worktop and wall look like one piece.

    Sizes

      Behind a hob

      Check the minimum clearance to a laminate panel in your hob's installation manual. Gas hobs usually need more space, or a heat-resistant panel behind the burners.

      Fitting

      Cut it to size and bond it to a flat, sound wall with panel adhesive. Seal the bottom edge to the worktop with silicone.

      Upstand or splashback?

      Choose an upstand if you're tiling above the worktop, or want the cheapest neat finish. Choose a splashback behind the hob or sink, or if you want no tiles at all. Lots of kitchens use both.

      What's an edging strip?

      BeforeCut end: barechipboard core AfterEdging strip,45mm wide, coversa cut end

      What it is

      A strip in Artisan Oak White that covers the cut end of the worktop. It comes pre-glued, or is fixed with contact adhesive.

      When you need it

      Whenever a cut end is on show: at the end of a run, on a breakfast bar, or anywhere you've cut a length down.

      Sizes

        Fitting

        1. Glue Spread contact adhesive on the end and the strip, or warm a pre-glued strip.
        2. Press Press it on firmly from the middle outwards, with a block of wood.
        3. Trim and file Trim the overhang with a sharp blade, then file the edges down at a slight angle.

        What are joining strips?

        Corner strip (L-shape)Straight stripSeen from above Aluminium strip38mm worktop: use the38mm stripWorktopWorktop

        What it is

        An aluminium strip that joins two worktop lengths without a router or jig. The web slips between the two ends and the cap covers the joint.

        Straight or corner

        Straight: joins two lengths in a line. Corner: makes an L-shaped join where two runs meet.

        Sizes

          Match the strip to your worktop's thickness: a 38mm strip for a 38mm worktop.

          The alternative

          A mason's mitre gives a seamless corner, but it needs a worktop jig and a router. See both options in our fitting guide.

          What are end caps?

          BeforeAfterExposed endEnd capScrewed over therounded profile Left end capRight end capYou, facing the worktopWall

          What it is

          An aluminium cap that finishes the exposed end of a postformed worktop, following its rounded front edge.

          Left or right?

          Stand facing the worktop. If the exposed end is on your left, you need a left end cap; if it's on your right, a right end cap.

          Sizes

            Match the cap to your worktop's thickness.

            Fitting

            Hold the cap against the end, drill small pilot holes and screw it on. A thin bead of silicone behind it keeps water out of the end.

            What's in the joint kit?

            3 connector boltsJoint sealant Seen from underneathBolts pull the joint tight;sealant keeps water out

            What's in it

            Three connector bolts and a tube of joint sealant: everything to hold one worktop joint together.

            What it's for

            The bolts sit in pockets cut underneath both worktops and pull the joint tight. The sealant goes on the joint faces first, so water can't get into the core.

            How many?

            One kit per worktop joint.

              Care and cleaning

              Warm soapy water keeps a white oak surface fresh, and a quick dry avoids water marks. Rinse away coloured spills such as wine or curry sooner rather than later. A trivet and a chopping board protect the face.

              Which edge?

              • Postformed: the laminate wraps a soft, rounded front. Classic and hard-wearing.
              • Square edge: a sharp, modern line with a matching edge strip.
              • Compact: 12mm solid board, slim and waterproof.
              More on edges and thickness

              Fitting in four steps

              • Measure, then cut face down with a fine-tooth blade.
              • Lay it on the units and screw up through the brackets.
              • Seal the cut edges, then fit the upstand and end caps.
              Read the full fitting guide

              How to measure

              • Measure each wall run along the back, in millimetres.
              • Add about 50mm to every run so you can trim to a clean fit.
              • In an L-shape, let the longest run go into the corner.

              Size guide

              • Worktops come 3000mm or 4100mm long and 600mm deep.
              • Breakfast bars are deeper: 665mm or 900mm, for islands and overhangs.
              • Buy a length that covers your run, then cut it to fit.

              Why you’ll love it

              • Bleached oak with tiny knots

                The ground is a warm off-white, and the grain shows only as soft, pale lines. Small knots speckle the surface, so it reads as natural timber, not a flat white.

              • Finish code NW in white

                Finish code NW is printed on this oak. Laminate stands up to everyday scratches and stains, and a pale ground makes a clean worktop easy to judge at a glance.

              • The white member of the Artisan set

                Artisan Oak, Artisan Oak Grey and Artisan Oak Anthracite share the grain. The upstand (4100 x 120 x 19mm) and splashback (4100 x 640mm) let you finish the wall in white oak.

              A white worktop with more warmth than plain white

              Plain white can feel clinical. The soft grain here adds texture, so Artisan Oak White suits Scandi kitchens, coastal homes and small rooms that need to feel larger. It sits against white, pale blue or sage units, and looks good beside a dark floor. Choose it for a bright utility room or a landlord refit where a clean-looking surface helps the room present well.

              How to fit

              Fitting Artisan Oak White

              White oak shows pencil lines and dust in a fresh cut more than darker decors do. Work with a clean blade and masking tape, and wipe each cut edge before you cap or edge it.

              What you’ll need

              Most homes have these already:

              • Pencil
              • Drill driver
              • Circular saw or jigsaw
              • Straight edge or spirit level

              Can’t find your answer? Contact our worktop team.

              0330 000 0000Email us
              Is Artisan Oak White pure white?

              No. It is a warm, off-white oak with pale grain and small knots. Against bright white cabinets it reads slightly creamier, which softens the look.

              Will it show marks and stains?

              A light surface shows spills until they are wiped, so clean up coloured spills promptly. The laminate face resists stains, and warm soapy water removes most marks.

              How does it compare with Artisan Oak Grey?

              Artisan Oak White is the lightest of the family and almost bleached. Artisan Oak Grey has a visible warm grey tone and slightly stronger grain contrast.

              Can I use it with a white upstand?

              You can, but the matching oak upstand, 4100 x 120 x 19mm, carries the grain up the wall. A plain white upstand gives a cleaner but flatter line.

              Is a slim 20mm version available?

              No. Artisan Oak White is made in 38mm postformed only. The front edge is a Quadra 3mm radius that wraps the laminate, so there is no front seam.

              What breakfast bar sizes exist in white oak?

              Two depths, 670mm and 900mm, each 4.1m long. The 900mm bar suits stools on one side while the standard run continues alongside.
