The Calacatta Marble worktop from Formica Originals blends sleek stone-inspired style with high-pressure laminate durability. Designed for modern kitchens that demand elegance without compromise.
The Calacatta Marble decor brings refined stone-inspired elegance into contemporary kitchen spaces. Unlike standard laminates, Formica high-pressure laminate is engineered to resist impact, moisture, and daily wear while maintaining its sleek matt finish.
Matte 58 is Formica's lightly textured matt finish, smooth to the touch with low light reflection, and it suits almost any decor. It works across full worktops, breakfast bars, islands, and matching upstands or splashbacks for a perfectly coordinated kitchen.
Matching upstands and splashbacks available
All Formica Originals worktop designs can be continued onto your walls with coordinated upstands and splashbacks — protecting walls while creating a refined, seamless finish.

Because Formica HPL is non-porous and water-resistant, daily cleaning is straightforward. No sealing, no special oils, no re-finishing.
Wipe with a soft cloth, warm water, and a mild detergent. Dry with a clean cloth to avoid water marks.
Wipe immediately — liquids cannot penetrate the laminate surface. Coffee, wine, and oil will not leave permanent stains.
Abrasive pads, bleach, solvent-based cleaners, or undiluted bleach. These can permanently damage the laminate finish.
Always use a trivet or heat mat under hot pans. Direct sustained heat can affect the surface over time.
Always use a chopping board. Knives will scratch any worktop surface, including HPL.
Can be cut with standard woodworking tools. Finished edges are factory-sealed; field-cut edges should be sealed with matching edge sealant.
Postformed worktops, like this one, have the laminate wrapped over a rounded front edge, so there is no visible joint along the front. Square-edge worktops have a crisp, square front edge instead.
Yes. The 38mm thick HPL construction provides good support for undermount sink installations. We recommend professional installation for any sink or hob cutout.
No. Formica HPL is non-porous and factory-sealed. Unlike timber or composite stone, it never requires sealing, oiling, or re-finishing.
Yes. Sizes up to 4100 × 900 × 38mm are available with two finished long edges — ideal for peninsulas, breakfast bars, and kitchen islands.
Yes — all worktop designs in the Formica Originals Worktop Collection are also available as matching upstands and splashbacks. This creates a perfectly coordinated, joint-free look from worktop to wall.
Matte 58 is a lightly textured, non-directional matt finish from Formica. It is smooth to the touch and reflects very little light, so the decor reads clearly without glare.
Formica Originals worktops come with a 10‑year quality guarantee covering defects in materials and workmanship. This warranty ensures that the high‑pressure laminate surface — durable, hygienic, and resistant to stains and scratches — is protected after installation.
