add some curves

Bring some free-flowing style to your kitchen with our brand new range of ready-made shaped components, available in a choice of five designs. They’re spot on the trend for creating curves which are normally only achieved with more expensive worksurface materials. Now you can do it in laminate, with the freedom to create a casual dining table, breakfast bar or nicely finish off curved corner furniture.

design edge

All 38mm Prima worksurfaces now feature our exclusive Q3 profile, giving the product a true design edge. The squarer shape with its crisp 3mm radii top and bottom enhances our stone and woodgrain designs with an authentic slab-cut look.

Q3 takes laminate worktops to another level of design sophistication. Beautiful.

absolutely radiant

Radiance is an innovative texture combining a gently undulating surface with a subtle gloss element. The softly shimmering surface entices the eye and is appealing to the touch. And on a practical note, it’s also very easy to keep clean.

Radiance texture features on all our True Scale designs and also works beautifully on our plain colour palette of Black Granite, Ice and Espresso, refracting the light to give the worksurface wonderful depth and clarity.

feel the

beauty

Feel the beauty of our Riverwash texture.

It’s inspired by water washing gently over stones creating a time-worn natural charm. The hewn surface perfectly complements the choice of neutral colourways in our Riverwash palette which is available in our brand new Q3 edge profile giving added elegance.

the best of both worlds

Prima excels in woodgrains. High quality print definition and superb textures combine to reflect nature’s finest species.

From the exotic tones of Ebony and Zebrano to the classics of Cherry and Walnut, they offer the best of both worlds — natural beauty in a material that is durable and ever so easy to maintain.

Try adding a glossy laminate splashback too for contrast. Lovely.

splashbacks are smart

Why not complete your design look by adding a laminate splashback?

They’re available in many designs to match Prima worksurfaces, and a new palette of plain colours in Aquamarine, Graphite, Olive and Iris. So you can express your own design style with a co-ordinating or contrasting look.

They’re easy to fit and easy to keep clean too.

It’s always the small details that make the difference.

An upstand gives a neat finish between the worksurface and wall and they’re very easy to install. To match the smart Q3 edge profile on our worksurfaces, all of our upstands now offer the same detail too, giving you an even more stylish result.

Upstands are available to match every worksurface design. So simple. So smart.

QualityManufacturing with the finest materials is what gives Bushboard worksurfaces their signature quality compared to competitive products. While beautiful and stylish to look at, they are also constructed to cope with the wear and tear of everyday living.

Independently tested to BS/EN438, your Bushboard worksurface is designed to withstand knocks, abrasions, chemicals, cigarette burns, steam, stains from juice, tea, wine or coffee. It is also highly resistant to heat, although we recommend the use of a protective pad as saucepan bottoms can become extremely hot.

Bushboard select E1 grade high-density particleboard for strength and stability. Its homogenous construction generates excellent machining capability for sink cut-outs and mitre joints. They are surfaced in Formica® high-pressure laminate. A resin impregnated moisture resistant barrier combines with Bushboard’s unique ‘Tekseal’ cast resin to completely seal the underside against moisture penetration from everyday spills.

Glastex Gloss, Naturelle and Radiance texturesThese premium textures need a little more care and attention than our standard finishes. While the Glastex Gloss technology offers an advanced level of protection against scuffing, please remember they are fashionable finishes and tend to show marks and scratches more easily with everyday use. This is also true of darker and plainer colours. To maintain the appealing looks of these textures, you should buff up the surface to a shine after a normal wipe down.

As with any laminate worktop, you should avoid chopping, cutting or placing hot items directly on to the surface. Please take care to use a protective pad.

NEW Q338mm

SplashbacksSplashbacks should always be installed at least 130mm from a hob or heat source.

Lifetime Guarantee Bushboard worksurfaces are guaranteed for their lifetime. Bushboard will make good by repair and/or replacement (at its discretion) any Prima product of its manufacture which can be shown to have failed by reason of defects in its manufacture, subject to fair wear and tear, provided the product has been installed and used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and that the products are used for their intended purpose / application. Proof of date and place of purchase required. This guarantee is in addition to your statutory rights as a consumer and does not affect your rights in any way.

Care & MaintenanceBushboard worksurfaces are so easy to maintain. On a day to day basis, all you need to do is wipe them down with a moist cloth and your favourite mild detergent. For more stubborn marks such as fruit juice or coffee, leave the detergent to soak on the surface for a little while before rinsing thoroughly.

Obviously, your worksurface can become damaged if mistreated, so we recommend some sensible measures like placing hot pans or casserole dishes on protective mats and mopping up spills quickly. Full details can be found in our Care & Maintenance leaflet. One of these is included with every worktop purchased but if you need a copy please call our Customer Service Team or log onto our website.

Installation & FinishingWe’ve developed a bespoke adhesive, BB Complete, which should be used by the installer when your Prima worktop is fitted. It offers superb performance characteristics and allows your installer to joint, bond and seal your worksurface, upstand and splashback and is backed by our exclusive 3 year guarantee. There is a wide choice of colours available giving you the perfect colour matched result. BB Complete is available in a handy 290ml cartridge with the six most popular colours in a cost effective 80ml pack.

Exclusive 3 year guarantee on jointsBushboard offers an exclusive 3 year guarantee against blown worktop joints when BB Complete adhesive is used for installation. Instructions and full terms and conditions are available on our website or from our Customer Service Team.
