Upstands

Upstands are vertical panels that are installed at the back of a worktop, usually along the wall, to provide a protective barrier and create a seamless transition between the worktop and the wall. Upstands help to prevent water, food splashes, and other liquids from seeping behind the worktop and potentially damaging the wall. They act as a barrier, making it easier to clean and maintain the area between the worktop and the wall. Upstands create a finished and polished look in the kitchen. They can enhance the overall design and provide a cohesive appearance, especially when they match or complement the material and colour of the worktop.
