Make Your Formica® Countertops Look Luxe With Unique Edging!

A classic square edge? Something more rounded? You have options! 

In the past, laminate countertops were offered in one, traditional way when it came to edges. Now, you have a range of choices to consider for your project, with each adding a different upscale look. 

Each of these options can enhance your Formica® Laminate countertops with an edge profile that completes your design vision: 

1. Classic Square Edge
2. Postforming
3. Edgebanding
4. IdealEdge®

 

Traditional laminate countertops have square, flat edges that show a brown line between the top sheet and the edge. This is due to the exposed brown kraft paper layer. 

A newer alternative is ColorCore®2, a solid-core laminate that has color throughout to eliminate the brown line between the top sheet and the edge. With these 90-degree flat edges, you’ll have a precise, clean look.

 

These are the drop-in-place laminate countertops available at most home improvement centers. Your postformed countertop is manufactured as a single piece with no seams or corners. These often include a backsplash and a variety of specialty edge options instead of a flat edge.

 

Edgebanding uses special technology to create a seamless edge with an exceptionally tight fit. Through our partner Hartson-Kennedy, Formica Group offers custom-designed edgebanding matches for a curated collection of stone and woodgrain Formica® laminates. This sleek aesthetic features scratch resistance and impressive durability to stand up to wear and tear.
