Laminate
Laminate is one of the most popular kitchen worktop materials worldwide. The material is budget-friendly and functional. It is popular for the variety of choice it offers within a low budget. Whether it is thickness or design, you have a choice to make. When it comes to laminate, 38mm kitchen worktops are more popular because they are considered to be more durable. Apart from that, you have a multitude of colours and designs to choose from. The laminate worktop is easy to maintain and easy to replace. It is quite durable too, as long as you are not using it as a chopping board or not placing extremely hot pans over it.
Wood
Until now wood was most commonly found in a more traditional style of kitchen. With changing perception and technology, you can now find wooden worktops in more contemporary kitchens as well – they offfer you a unique look of elegance. Though nowadays, sleeker wooden worktops are preferred; you will still find most kitchens with 38mm worktops in wood. The installation of wood worktops can be a bit difficult and they also need proper maintenance, like oil sealing, quite frequently.
Solid Surfaces
One of the most expensive and most durable kitchen worktop materials is granite. Even when it is expensive, people prefer to have granite worktops in their kitchen because over time, the cost decreases. First of all, it is extremely durable. Secondly, it requires minimum maintenance. Moreover, it looks tremendously stylish. You will find the granite worktops in varied thickness, from sleeker 28mm worktops to thicker 38mm ones.
Stainless steel is a popular kitchen material choice amongst restaurants and hotels. They are very hardy and extremely durable to withstand the heavy beating of professional kitchens. However, they are also prone to scratches and water stains. The material also becomes lacklustre after prolonged usage. This is one of the most important reasons why you will not find stainless steel kitchen worktops used in houses. However, if you can take proper care of the steel worktops, you can get a sleeker and more contemporary look in your kitchen by choosing 38mm ones.
