Alternative to the backsplash: HPL
- HPL stands for High-Pressure Laminate. These are chipboards with a glued-on layer of high-pressure laminate.
- The material is the same as many countertops.
- The HPL paneling is available in all imaginable designs.
- You can clad your kitchen with it in a wood, stone, or mosaic look.
- Monochrome or colored HPL panels are also conceivable.
- The HPL panels are the cheapest alternative to the backsplash.
- They can be glued or screwed directly to the wall, or mounted to the wall using a wooden scaffold.
Glass instead of tile mirror
- A glass plate as a kitchen splashback looks classy and simple.
- You can use milky or clear glass plates.
- You can attach a single-color film or, for example, photo motifs behind the glass pane.
- Glass kitchen backsplashes have mounting hardware that allows you to easily screw them to the wall.
- Please note that no recesses for sockets can be made in the glass paneling afterward.
Stainless steel instead of tile mirror
- A high-quality, luxurious-looking alternative to the backsplash is stainless steel.
- The material is heat-resistant and hygienic.
- However, grease and water stains on stainless steel are immediately visible and the surface is prone to scratches.
- The stainless steel panels are only a few millimeters thick and can be glued or screwed directly to the wall.
