Applications of slate worktops in kitchens

 

One of the hottest trends in modern home design includes using these slate worktops against stark white cabinetry, adding an invigorating splash of colour to the space. 

Traditional homes, meanwhile, find applications of slate worktops in kitchens to be the perfect accompaniment to rustic, wooden elements, creating cosy yet sophisticated homely decor. 

Businesses with a natural or earthy aesthetic can incorporate slate worktops into their interior spaces, ensuring style and durability.

Opting for green slate over concrete worktops bestows unique advantages. While concrete may initially seem simpler and more affordable, it falls short in durability and maintenance. 

On the other hand, slate offers a distinctive aesthetic and ensures longevity with minimal upkeep, making it the wise investment for your home or business.

Should I get slate or concrete worktops?

Several vital characteristics make each stand out when evaluating slate and concrete worktops. Green slate boasts low maintenance, heat resistance, and natural aesthetics, while concrete offers design flexibility. 

 

The Choice is Yours.

Maintenance: slate worktops are low-maintenance, non-porous, and bacteria-resistant. Concrete countertops, however, require regular sealing and may stain if improperly maintained.

Durability: Both materials are durable and heat-resistant, with slate suitable for kitchen use. 

Colour and Design Options: Concrete provides a wide range of customizable colours, while slate offers natural variations with a more limited colour selection.

Heat Resistance: Green slate is a better insulator and safer for hot pans than concrete, although both materials are heat-resistant.
