Solid laminate worktops are a durable option for any kitchen and are as aesthetically pleasing as they are robust. Caldeira Zenith worktops feature a selection of grey tones - similar to a concrete or slate surface - mottled with a warm, earthy terracotta shade with a textured matt finish. This attractive stone-look is a fantastic option for a contemporary kitchen and this is enhanced by the 12mm thickness of these slimline surfaces.
With a solid black core, these compact laminate worktops are incredibly durable and completely waterproof. Their solid construction and impermeable nature makes them suitable for use with undermounted sinks and features such as drainage grooves, unlike traditional laminate surfaces. Incredibly durable, Caldeira worktops are resistant to wear, heat (up to 220°) and impact from blunt objects. This makes them a fantastic choice for even the busiest of kitchens.
Please note: the edge of your worktop will arrive sanded, but will need polishing following installation to achieve a smooth, even finish. We offer an edge polishing option as part of our bespoke worktop service.
FIRA Gold Certified
Any Zenith Caldeira worktop in our collection can be cut-to-size on site and will not require any specialist equipment. Edges will need to be sanded gently following cutting - full details of this process can be found in the installation instructions.

Worktop Express® is a distribution company in the truest sense of the word; and cost-effectiveness is built into our business model.
With Worktop Express there is simply no middleman: we even operate our own in-house 2Man delivery service to maximise efficiency. When you choose Worktop Express, you are choosing a group of specialists who devote their expert attention to every step of the process and are single-handedly responsible for sourcing, stocking, marketing, and distributing the product. Ensuring that we are the only link between the customer and manufacturer allows us to offer the most up-to-date products in the market for lower prices than any other retailer.
Our large stock holding - over 20,000 worktops are held in stock at any time across various locations - and sheer purchasing power dictates that the prices we can provide direct to the public and trade are extremely competitive. We do not share the same overheads as high-street stores (on average an initial 270% markup tends to be applied just to cover warehousing and staff costs) and therefore can achieve similar profit margins - but without overcharging customers! Our direct internet delivery model and advanced stock ordering allows us to minimise costs.
We have five strategically-placed depots throughout the UK, all of which are serviced by an impressive fleet of in-house delivery vehicles. As a result, we are able to offer an unparalleled delivery service: cost-effective, consistent, and prompt.
The belief that superb quality can go hand-in-hand with affordability is a lynchpin of the Worktop Express ethos. As a result we are confident that the Worktop Express product range far outstrips the quality of anything you will find on the high street - and often at a fraction of the cost.
Still not convinced? Try our great-value sample service: you'll be glad you did.
