The kitchen is a space where wall surfaces are constantly exposed to water, steam, grease, and dirt.
That's why the question is increasingly being asked: can panels be used between the countertop and upper kitchen elements?
The answer is – yes, of course they can, provided that appropriate materials are used.
PVC panels as a replacement for kitchen tiles
For kitchen backsplash, 3 mm thick PVC panels made from pure PVC material are used.
Such panels are resistant to moisture and steam, easy to maintain, and represent a modern alternative to classic ceramic tiles.
Ideal dimension for kitchen backsplash
Flex Decor PVC panels come in dimensions of 120 × 280 cm, which brings a great practical advantage.
The panel is cut along the width, so from one panel of 120 × 280 cm, two panels of 60 × 280 cm are obtained.
The standard height of the space between the countertop and hanging elements is about 60 cm, which makes this dimension ideal.
This way you get:
- minimal number of joints
- faster and simpler installation
- minimal material waste
One panel – two kitchen backsplashes
Thanks to the large format and proper cutting along the width, the kitchen backsplash looks clean, uniform, and modern, without unnecessary joints and additional cuts.
Conclusion
Panels between the countertop and shelves in the kitchen are not only possible but represent a practical and aesthetically quality solution.
By using 3 mm thick PVC panels made from pure PVC, with dimensions of 120 × 280 cm, you get a long-lasting and functional kitchen backsplash.
