Black Flint Laminate Worktop

A near-black surface scattered with fine grey and silver flecks, like polished granite seen in low light. This laminate worktop comes as a 38mm postformed board in two ranges, with dark breakfast bars, a matching upstand and a double-sided splashback.

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 Black Flint, 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.

    What's a splashback?

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

    What it is

    A full-height panel in Black Flint, 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

      It's double-sided: Gold Craft Oak is on the reverse, so you can choose which way round to fit it.

      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 Black Flint 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.

Order by 4pm Monday to Friday for next working day delivery to most of England and Wales; orders placed after 4pm, at weekends or on bank holidays are dispatched the next working day, and some areas take 2 to 3 working days.

              Returns

              Changed your mind? You have 14 days from delivery to return it unused, uncut and in its wrapping; we refund within 14 days of getting it back. Report any damage within 48 hours. Full returns policy.

              Care and cleaning

              Wipe with warm soapy water and buff dry with a soft cloth, as dark surfaces show smears and dust more readily. Avoid abrasive pads. Put a trivet under hot pans to protect the dark surface from marks.

              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.
              Full measuring guide

              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

              • Deep black with grey and silver flecks

                A true dark ground with small, angular flecks in grey and silver across the whole surface. The speckle breaks up the black, so it feels like stone rather than a flat block of colour.

              • Perl finish

                Kronospan’s Perl texture, finish code PE, in a dark decor. It resists stains and everyday scratches, and the surface never needs sealing, which is an easy rule to live with on black.

              • Finesse and 3m contract together

                Finesse boards are 38mm with a 3mm radius. The 3m contract range adds 3050mm lengths in 38mm and 28mm with a 6mm radius, plus upstands of 4100 or 3000mm and 10mm or 6mm splashbacks.

              Black that works hard in family kitchens

              Black Flint suits white or pale grey cabinets for contrast, and disappears into dark handleless units for a tonal kitchen. The 28mm 3m contract board is a lighter option for utility rooms, garages and rentals, and the 38mm boards give a sturdier front edge. Landlords and fitters who like to keep one decor across several jobs will find the lengths straightforward.

              How to fit

              Fitting Black Flint

              All three Black Flint boards are postformed. Finesse has a 3mm front radius and the 3m contract range 6mm, so use one range on a run. The 28mm board needs shorter screws than the 38mm boards.

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

              0330 000 0000Email us
              What lengths and thicknesses come in this black?

              Finesse is 38mm, in 3000 and 4100mm lengths, 600mm deep. The 3m contract range is 3050mm long in 38mm and 28mm, 600mm deep. Breakfast bars are 665 and 900mm deep at 4100mm, with a 900mm bar at 3050mm.

              How do the 3m contract boards differ?

              They come in 3050mm lengths with a 6mm radius front edge, and include a thinner 28mm board. Finesse boards have a 3mm radius. The surface decor is the same, but keep to one range along each run.

              Does black show dust and fingerprints?

              Dark decors show dry dust and smears more than light ones, but the fine flecks help hide small crumbs. Wiping with a damp microfibre cloth and drying the surface keeps it looking even.

              Which decor backs the splashback?

              The double-sided splashback has Black Flint on one face and Gold Craft Oak, code K003FP, on the other. It comes in 4100 x 640 x 10mm and in 3000 x 600 x 6mm.

              Is an inset sink the only choice?

              No. Laminate has a chipboard core that an undermount cut-out would expose. Fit an inset sink, which covers the cut edge, and seal the cut-out with silicone first.

              What cabinet colours suit Black Flint?

              White, pale grey or stone doors give strong contrast, while charcoal or black units give a tonal look. Brass or brushed steel handles stand out well against the dark surface.
