The Moon Caststone worktop from Formica Originals delivers soft, organic stone-inspired elegance with high-pressure laminate durability. Designed for modern kitchens that demand understated natural beauty without compromise.
The Moon Caststone decor brings soft, organic stone-inspired elegance into contemporary kitchen spaces. With its gentle neutral tones and subtle natural texture, this design adds understated beauty to any kitchen — from modern minimalism to classic contemporary, from coastal inspired to timeless elegance. Unlike standard laminates, Formica high-pressure laminate is engineered to resist impact, moisture, and daily wear while maintaining its beautiful stone-inspired finish.
Matte 58 is a sophisticated low-reflectance texture that feels natural to the touch — never glossy or distracting. 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 Axis) have a continuous laminate wrap over the front edge — no visible joint, no separate edge strip. Straight-edged worktops require a separate edging strip. Postformed is more durable, seamless, and easier to keep clean.
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 4000 × 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 sophisticated low-reflectance texture that provides a natural, refined feel. It offers a subtle tactile finish with minimal light reflection — never glossy or distracting, allowing the beauty of the stone design to take centre stage.
Yes. Moon Caststone features Formica's high-definition print technology combined with the Matte 58 texture, creating an authentic, natural-looking stone finish with soft neutral tones and subtle organic texture that captures the beauty of natural cast stone.
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.
