Marvellous MarblesAll the visual drama of marble, without the dramatic price.Formica Prima® presents a selection of exotic and luxurious marbles that will make a big design statement, without demanding a big budget.

Bringing an undeniable wow factor to any kitchen, Formica Prima marbles are available in a variety of colours to suit your interior design tastes. To show off the full drama of these marbles,use as a large island or breakfast bar. They also look marvellous vertically as a feature splashback.

Actual marble is a more open grain stone, which makes it softer and more delicate. Prima TRUESCALE marble decors are based on real stone slabs, but are encapsulated into a high performance laminate surface, making it water resistant and offering protection from scratches and stains.

Formica Prima TRUESCALE marbles are beautiful, elegant,and timeless.

Gorgeous GranitesDelivering gorgeous work surfaces, the granite “look” remains the most popular in kitchens today. Composed of crystals such as quartz and mica, the sheer variety of colours and types of granites available mean that there is a granite to meet all tastes, from the most traditional and conservative, to the most modern and minimalist kitchens.

We’ve sourced real slabs of granite from all over the world to inspire our Formica Prima® range. Our signature granites have been inspired by the strikingly beautiful, large-scale Mascarello granite from Brazil. Unlike actual granite, Formica Prima laminate worktops, splashbacks and upstands are lightweight, do not require specialist equipment to cut or install and they require no sealants or on-going treatments.

Striking StonesOther popular stone looks include engineered stone, slate, concrete, ceramics and soapstone, but these can be hard to source, fabricate and install. They can also be expensive and the performance of these materials in a functional kitchen canhave limitations.

The Formica Prima® range of worktops captures the best of these looks and makes them available, practical and affordable.

Premium and exclusive Formica® laminate textures add the perfect finishing touch, to give the look of highly polished, honed or weathered stones.

Wonderful WoodsThe ultimate all rounder, there’s a wood worktop to complement any kitchen style, traditional or modern, light or dark.

Worktops, Breakfast Bars & IslandsImportance of designGood design can dramatically change the function of a kitchen, from a place to prepare food, into a space to eat and enjoy it, to socialise and relax, to work or study.

Great design can transform your kitchen, into the heart ofyour home.

Clever use of space and materials is as important in small kitchens, as in large open plan kitchens:

• A breakfast bar with recessed seating creates a compact kitchen diner.

• A waterfall edge on the end of a worktop run or island, cascading the same design both horizontally and vertically to wrap kitchen furniture, creates a modern look, with sleek, clean lines.

• If you have the space for a large island, it makes a striking and very practical centre piece to any kitchen.

• Mixing different material looks can create an eye catching contrast, such as using Formica Prima® Marbled Cappuccino, alongside Natural Block Walnut.

Variety and versatilityThe Formica Prima range offers a wide variety of worktops, breakfast bars and islands, in a variety of different thicknesses and edge options, to make any possible kitchen design, a reality. • 52 worktop designs.• 9 premium surface textures.• 600mm wide worktops are edged on 1 long side and come in

a variety of lengths from 3050mm to 4100mm.• 665mm & 900mm wide breakfast bars are edged

on 2 long sides and come in a variety of lengths from 3050mm to 4100mm.

• 1205mm wide islands are edged on 2 long sides in a 3050mm length.

• Additional edging supplied with each worktop, breakfast bar and island.

• 22, 28 & 38mm thicknesses available on select items.• P-3 (3mm profile) available on the full worktop range & P-Zero

(square edge) option on select decors.

Functional, fabulous, feature splashbacks make a real design statement in any kitchen.

Complement your worktops and kitchen furniture with high gloss coloured splashbacks, luxury metallics or modern opticalsolid patterns.

For a more coordinated look, splashbacks that match your worktops are also available, allowing you to extend the work surface up onto the wall.

Mid panel splashbacks are designed for use from the worktop to the underside of your kitchen cabinets and are available in long 3030mm lengths to create a dramatic and functional alternative to tiles or a painted wall.

Hob panel splashbacks are double height, to protect the wall from cooking splashes and spills.

Feature Splashbacks

UpstandsFor the perfect finishing touch, why not add an upstand?

Upstands create clean, uncluttered lines between the back of your worktop and wall and can also help to hide any gaps orwall unevenness.

Available in long 3m lengths, matching upstands are available for the full range of Formica Prima® worktops and come with thesame P-3 profile.

Formica® is the original laminate brand and at Formica Group we believe that we produce the highest quality laminate products available. To back this up we offer market leading guarantees on our Formica Prima® worktop and accessories range.

Lifetime guarantee on worktops, breakfast bars & islandsThis guarantee covers any laminate worktop, breakfast bar or island found to be defective in either material or manufacture from the date of its installation. Swatch samples represent only a small area of an actual Formica Prima worktop, therefore colour and surface finish should be compatibility checked before your Formica Prima products are fitted, as we cannot accept claims for re-fitting resulting from a mismatch of colour or surface finish.

An installation and maintenance guide is supplied with every worktop; this must be kept by the end user to validate any guarantees.

10 year guarantee on upstands and splashbacksFormica Prima laminate upstands and splashbacks carry a 10 year guarantee. This guarantee covers any upstand or splashback found to be defective in either material or manufacture from the date of its installation.

Exceptions to the guarantee – Gloss products & metallic splashbacks Due to the properties of gloss and metallic laminates, additional care must be taken with these products and we are unable to accept performance responsibility.

Quality assuredAll Formica Prima products are manufactured in accordance with British and European standards to ensure they meet exacting modern kitchen requirements. Specific features incorporated into the worktop increase their resistance to heat, impact, moisture and scratching (excluding gloss). A moisture resistant front and back edge seal features on all Formica Prima worktops, breakfast bars and islands.

All Formica Prima worktops and accessories are manufactured at the Formica Group plant in Newton Aycliffe, County Durham. Formica Group is proud to support the “Made in Britain” campaign.
