The worktop that finally sits in the middle
For 20 years, kitchen worktops came two ways. Cheap chipboard laminate, or beautiful quartz and stone that cost a small fortune. Nothing sat in between. Then compact laminate arrived.
Basic laminate
Affordable, but basic. The old budget option.
Compact laminate
Looks like stone. Priced near laminate. Slim, modern, cut to your size.
Quartz & stone
Beautiful, but £3,000 to £8,000 fitted.
Think of compact as the best of both: the slim, stone-like look of quartz, at a price closer to laminate. We think a worktop has to do four things. Be practical, be the right size, look great, and fit your budget. Compact is the rare one that does all four.
Around 90% of the quartz experience, for about a third of the price. Our favourite word for it is reliable. No surprises. It looks great, it won't stain, it won't crack, and it is fully waterproof.
