Why choose seamless worktops in contract projects?

Surfaces with no visible joints are a direct response to the demands of projects in environments such as kitchens, both in homes and in the hospitality industry, where a high degree of cleanliness, resistance to intensive use and easy maintenance are required. In these cases, having a continuous worktop not only adds aesthetic value, but also provides a functional and technical advantage for the space.

These types of solutions are possible thanks to the development of materials such as solid surface, and especially Krion® LUX, whose composition allows for the creation of homogeneous, hygienic and high-performance surfaces adapted to the requirements of the contract channel.

Solid Surface for designing worktops with no visible joints

Thanks to the composition of Krion® LUX, it is possible to join the sheets together to create worktops with virtually invisible joints. The specific adhesive for each colour allows Krion® sheets to be joined together, offering a perfect finish.

 

Krion® LUX sheets

Krion® LUX sheets from Krion PORCELANOSA Group offer the possibility of enjoying a one-piece worktop. With the non-toxic adhesive of Krion® LUX, these are joined in a way that is imperceptible to the eye and touch, achieving a uniform and uninterrupted appearance. This joining technique guarantees an impeccable aesthetic and a continuous surface, without visible joints that break the harmony of the design.

Krion® LUX sheets are similar to wood in terms of handling, making them easy to install in any environment. You can give shape to your ideas and create customised worktops that perfectly suit your project, without limitations.

How imperceptible joints are achieved

To ensure a continuous surface with no noticeable interruptions, the joining process must be carried out by qualified professionals in a controlled workshop environment, following a technical protocol. First, the edge of the sheets must be perfectly milled with specific tools to ensure flat and uniform edges. This preparation is essential for a durable and flawless joint.

Next, the surfaces are cleaned with pure solvent, removing any dust or grease that could interfere with adhesion. The Krion adhesive, formulated specifically for each colour, is applied in a controlled manner to ensure that it slightly overflows and covers the entire contact surface.

Once the pieces are in place, clamps or pressure clips are used to maintain alignment and ensure flatness. After curing, excess adhesive is removed by sanding and polishing, resulting in a surface that is uniform to both the touch and the eye.

There are different types of joints depending on the design configuration: butt joints, mitre joints or reinforced joints for areas with greater mechanical demands. In addition, the strategic planning of the joints allows them to be located outside the field of vision or in areas of less use, optimising both the durability and the final aesthetics of the whole.

 

Semi-finished Krion sinks

Advantages of seamless kitchen worktops in kitchen design

When you choose seamless worktops for your kitchen, you enjoy numerous advantages that go beyond aesthetics. The most notable are: 

Hygiene

With traditional materials, it is common for moisture, liquid leaks and dirt to accumulate in the joints between surfaces over time, which negatively affects the aesthetics of the space and, furthermore, health; inadequate cleaning of surfaces leads to the proliferation of bacteria, mould and other microorganisms.

Krion® LUX worktops with no visible joints can create continuous surfaces without corners or joints, avoiding the areas that are most difficult to clean and where dirt accumulates most easily.

Krion® worktops with no visible joints not only offer a smooth surface, but also have almost zero porosity and bacteriostatic properties, which prevent the proliferation of microorganisms on their surface. Keeping your kitchen clean and germ-free is easier than ever.

Even so, it is advisable to follow these cleaning tips to keep them in optimal condition:

• Daily cleaning: to maintain them, simply clean any type of stain from the surface immediately after it occurs, without letting it sit, which will make cleaning easier and faster. Use a microfibre cloth, cloth or sponge to clean the surface.
• Cleaning difficult stains: cleaning difficult stains on Krion® LUX is much easier than it would be on other materials. Just follow these steps:
• Apply a micro-particle cleaner, or K-CREAM if necessary, to the stain and dampen a white scouring pad.
• Use circular movements and rub the stain until it disappears.
• If necessary, repeat the action and apply a little pressure.
• Finally, remove the excess cream with the green cleaning cloth, rinse with water and dry the surface thoroughly with the grey drying cloth.

If, after cleaning, there are differences between the finish of the stained area and the rest of the surface, the procedure can be repeated, this time around the treated area, to homogenise the surface until the changes are no longer noticeable.

Durability

Our kitchen worktops with no visible joints are designed to withstand daily wear and tear and retain their original appearance over time.

Krion® LUX material is highly resistant to impact, stains, chemicals and high temperatures.

Krion® LUX can be scratched, as can all materials used for surfaces. However, unlike others, scratches on Krion® LUX can be easily repaired by regenerating the material with a simple polish to leave it looking as good as new, ensuring exceptional durability.

Design

With our seamless worktops, you can give free rein to your creativity and design a unique kitchen. Combine different shades, textures and shapes to create a personalised space that suits your style and preferences.

The versatility of Krion® LUX allows you to create customised designs, from worktops to integrated sinks, offering a uniform and sophisticated appearance.

Here are some tips for achieving stunning décor:

• Elegant minimalism: opt for neutral colours and clean lines to highlight the purity and simplicity of the material. Less is more in this case.
• Subtle accessories: add delicate details that accentuate the style of your worktop. You can consider decorative elements such as ceramic bowls, or add natural touches such as potted plants.
• Strategic lighting: the right lighting can further enhance the beauty of seamless kitchen worktops. Use recessed lights or directional spotlights to create points of light that highlight the textures and colours of the material.
• Contrasting materials: combine Krion® LUX with other materials such as wood, stainless steel or glass to add depth and variety to the decoration of your seamless kitchen worktop.
