How to use Porcelain Surfaces in the Living Room

With open-plan living continuing to be popular choice, one way to make a statement is to create a media wall. Laminam’s porcelain is a practical choice for cladding a media wall, which can emulate the look of natural stone, marble, wood or cement for modern interiors, industrial décors and classic feels. Laminam is also a fire-proof material, ultra-sustainable and recyclable as well as being easy to install and lightweight. As well as media walls, you might consider using porcelain for integrated shelving and furniture or entranceway cladding. The sky is the limit!

How to use Porcelain Surfaces in the Kitchen

When you think of porcelain surfaces, their use in the kitchen is probably what comes to mind first. Porcelain is ideal for kitchen worksurfaces, splashbacks, islands, cabinet cladding or flooring – or all combined together for a cohesive look. It can be used to complement or contrast the colour theme and overall design, whether classic or contemporary, and with a bookmatched effect, the design is even more striking. A key trend for this year is dark kitchens and there’s plenty in the range to choose from. Laminam porcelain really is ideal for kitchens, as it’s hygienic, easy to clean and care for, resistant to heat and thermal shock as well as UV rays, so it can sit in the sunlight without fading. It’s also scratch resistant, ultra-durable and hardwearing – ideal for this busy hub of the home.

How to use Porcelain Surfaces Outdoors

For any outdoor projects now underway to be completed for this summer, Laminam’s non-porous surfaces cope easily with the great British weather and even inhibit the growth of micro-organisms so they are antibacterial too, as well as easy to clean. Textured finishes give good anti-slip resistance for patios and terraces and bring the natural stone look to any exterior space. Do you love to host BBQ’s and outdoor parties? Laminam is also perfect for outdoor kitchens, table tops, seating and wall cladding, as it’s stain, scratch, abrasion and thermal shock resistant, acid-proof and resistant to the sun’s UV rays, so won’t fade over time.
