Ipanema White Laminate Worktop

A warm off-white surface scattered with fine dark flecks and a faint streak of grey mottling. As laminate worktops go, it is a softer choice than plain white, on a 38mm postformed edge. A matching splashback is available for the wall.

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 Ipanema 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.

    What's a splashback?

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

    What it is

    A full-height panel in Ipanema 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 Ipanema 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.

              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 dry with a clean cloth, especially around the sink. Set pans straight from the hob onto a trivet, not the surface. Never seal it.

              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

              • Soft white with fine dark flecks

                Look closely and you see tiny dark specks and a pale grey streak drifting down the sheet. From a distance it reads as a warm, textured white rather than a flat block of colour.

              • A speckled white that lives easily

                The fleck breaks up the surface, so the colour feels gentler than a plain white. High-pressure laminate resists stains and everyday scratches, and warm soapy water is all it needs.

              • A splashback and upstand in the same white

                Choose the 4100 x 120 x 19mm upstand for a neat wall edge, or the 4100 x 640mm splashback behind the hob. Deeper bars come in 670mm and 900mm. See breakfast bars.

              A gentler white for light family kitchens

              Ipanema White suits cream, stone and pale grey cabinets, and it looks right beside oak or tiled floors. The base tone is warm rather than blue-white, so it will not feel stark next to natural timber. Owners of rental properties can use it as a neutral surface that rarely dates. Compare other white worktops if you are still deciding between a plain and a flecked white.

              How to fit

              Fitting Ipanema White

              Ipanema White is a 38mm postformed worktop with a 3mm rounded front edge, supplied in 3000mm and 4100mm lengths. Pale decors show pencil and dust, so mark lightly and keep the face clean.

              Questions about Ipanema White

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

              0330 000 0000Email us
              Is Ipanema White a pure white?

              No. The base is a warm off-white with fine dark flecks and a faint grey streak, so it looks softer than a plain brilliant white. It pairs well with cream, stone and pale grey.

              What depth are the breakfast bars?

              The bars measure 4100 x 670 x 38mm or 4100 x 900 x 38mm. Both have the rounded 3mm front edge, so they sit flush with the standard 600mm worktop.

              Will the flecks show at the joints?

              The fleck is scattered rather than a vein, so a mitre or butt joint hides well. There is a faint grey streak in the sheet, so lay lengths in the same direction.

              Can this decor take an undermount sink?

              No. Laminate has a chipboard core that undermount cut-outs would expose. Use an inset sink instead, and seal the cut edge with silicone before fitting.

              Which cabinets look best with Ipanema White?

              Cream, putty, pale grey and soft green all work, and so do natural oak units. Avoid cool blue-whites if you want the worktop to feel in tune with the doors.

              Can I get a splashback in the same speckled white?

              Yes, a splashback in the same pattern, 4100 x 640mm, plus an upstand measuring 4100 x 120 x 19mm. Together they finish the wall without a visible change of colour.
