Nero Bronzo Laminate Worktop

A deep black ground traced with thin bronze veins that branch like cracks in polished stone. This laminate worktop comes as a 38mm postformed board or a slim 22mm square edge. It sits among our black and dark worktops, with matching upstands, a splashback and breakfast bars in two depths.

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 Nero Bronzo, 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 Nero Bronzo, 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 Nero Bronzo 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.

            Read the full fitting guide

            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.

              Delivery

              Delivered by our specialist worktop delivery partner, in full lengths, flat and protected. Delivery is free to every postcode we serve. 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. Check your date below. We confirm your slot 24 hours before, and delivery is kerbside, so have a second person ready to carry it in.

              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

              Black surfaces show streaks, so wipe with a damp microfibre cloth and buff dry. Keep scourers and cream cleaners away from it. A trivet keeps pan heat away from the bronze-veined decor.

              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.

              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.

              • 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

              • Black with fine bronze veining

                Slender veins in bronze and copper run down and across a near-black ground, thickening in places like mineral seams. It is a dramatic pattern that stays elegant on a large island.

              • Pluton finish

                Pluton is the texture on this decor. It resists stains and everyday scratches, and you do not need to seal it as you would with real nero marble.

              • Two builds, edging and upstands

                The 38mm board has a 3mm rounded edge, and the 22mm board a square ABS edge. Upstands come in 22mm and 20mm, with a 10mm splashback and a 1300 x 28mm strip for cut ends.

              Dramatic black for bold, modern kitchens

              Nero Bronzo works with matt black or deep green handleless doors, and it sets off pale plaster walls and brass taps. The bronze veins make a statement on an island, so many buyers use the 38mm breakfast bar there and the slim 22mm board along the wall run. It is a showpiece decor rather than an everyday neutral, so use it where you want people to look.

              How to fit

              Fitting Nero Bronzo

              Nero Bronzo comes with two edge types. The 38mm board has a 3mm rounded edge that wants a mitre or aluminium strip. The 22mm board is square-edged, so it can be butt-jointed and capped with the ABS strip.

              Questions about Nero Bronzo

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

              What sizes can I order in Nero Bronzo?

              The 38mm postformed range is 3000mm or 4100mm long and 600mm deep. The slim 22mm board measures 4100 x 620mm. Breakfast bars are 665mm or 900mm deep at 38mm, and 900mm at 22mm.

              Which edge looks more modern?

              The 22mm square edge gives a slim, architectural line, with a flat front finished in colour-matched ABS. The 38mm board has a softer rounded nosing and feels more substantial on an island.

              How well does bronze-veined black hide fingerprints?

              Dark decors show smears more than pale ones, so a quick wipe and dry helps. The bronze veining breaks up the surface and makes light marks less obvious than on a plain black.

              Do the bronze veins match the splashback?

              Yes. The 4100 x 640 x 10mm splashback carries the same black and bronze pattern. There is no contrasting reverse listed, so either face of the board is fine.

              What colours go with black and bronze?

              Warm whites, dusty plaster, deep green and charcoal all suit it. Brass or aged-bronze handles pick up the veins, and a pale floor stops the room feeling too heavy.

              Will a flush undermount bowl work on Nero Bronzo?

              No, because laminate has a chipboard core that an undermount cut would expose. An inset sink is the right choice for this decor, and Nero Bronzo is not offered as a compact worktop.
