Complete the Strass Noir worktop with the Strass Noir upstand, designed to look and feel like quartz with all the benefits of laminate. Worktop upstands are the ideal way to conceal the join between walls and work surfaces. A stylish alternative to tiles, upstands are also fantastic for disguising any slightly uneven walls behind your worktop.Created using the same high-quality materials as the laminate worktops, upstands are incredibly durable and exceptionally low maintenance. Water and scratch resistant, they can be wiped clean using a soft cloth and some warm soapy water, making them suitable for use in even the busiest of kitchens. Worktop upstands can be cut to size on site without any specialist tools or equipment. Please note: Upstands should not be fitted directly behind a gas hob without additional protection. For other hob types, please refer to the hob manufacturer's guidelines to ensure that your installation complies with safety standards.
