Many of the Spectra designs have been chosen to offer customers the feel and beauty of granite, slate or stone but always offer great value for money and the high performance qualities of durable laminate. Spectra s Dolce Vita is an exotic Australian quartzite stone which can provide a truly dramatic focal point for your kitchen. For a stunning contemporary kitchen, opt for one of Spectra s three black gloss designs: Black Slate, Andromeda Black or Black Spark. Add a matching upstand or splashback and focused lighting for a dazzling high tech look. To accentuate the feeling of space, choose a design from Spectra s light or neutral colour palette such as Snow Spark or Mineral Crème. For a kitchen that is truly out of this world, why not choose the Ruby Crystal design with its highly reflective finish and distinctive metallic fleck?

9 Finishing touches Ensure your kitchen not only looks good, but feels good In addition to a comprehensive array of colours and patterns, Spectra offers 12 laminate textures to add substance and interest to your kitchen to enhance its look and feel. From a dramatic, highly reflective, ultra smooth gloss finish to a subtle, soft brushed effect, give your kitchen a truly tactile appeal with a Spectra worksurface. The specially selected wood grain texture of Amazonia has been chosen to complement and enhance this luxuriously exotic wood design which adds depth and interest to the surface. Amazonia (Wood) Glaze Areas of gloss and matt mixed together for a subtle, semi-reflective surface. Gloss* Highly reflective surface with a smooth, mirror shine, gives a contemporary feel to a kitchen. Grain Subtle texture emulating the natural pores of real wood. Matt Non-reflective surface for simple elegance. Mika Highly tactile surface finish which gives the feel of naturally weathered slate. Nature Lightly pitted surface with a subtle sheen. * Please note: Quartz and Gloss surfaces are more prone to scratches than other worksurface finishes so additional care must be taken when handling and cleaning. Quartz* Reflective surface incorporating dazzling multi-coloured elements which are freely distributed to give a uniquely creative finish. Radiance Low sheen satin texture with subtle surface detail, similar to glaze. Riverwash An intense combination of high sheen and matt elements creating an attractive yet tough surface texture. Satin Sophisticated texture that offers a delicate shimmer. Sirius Heavy texture minimises smudges, finger marks and improves scratch resistance. Wood A deep brushed finish with a linear wood-like grain.

Providing smooth, clean lines between walls and worksurfaces, these simple additions to a kitchen offer a stylish alternative to tiles without the need for unsightly grout lines.

17 Quality Brilliant design and materials guaranteed Spectra worksurfaces are manufactured to the rigorous standards of BS/EN4965 using the highest quality materials. This ensures the best heat, moisture and impact resistance. Above all, Spectra worksurfaces are hygienic and ideal for food preparation. The BS/EN438 laminate surface is bonded to EN312/2003 E1 high density particle board to form a 6mm radius profile on all leading long edges. This not only looks great but also protects the worksurface from exposure to moisture with a polyurethane drip barrier. The front and rear edges are also tightly sealed to give extra protection from water and steam. Each Spectra worksurface is supplied with a heavy duty polythene wrapping. The high gloss designs also have protective foils applied to the laminate surface which are removed during the installation process. At no extra cost, each Spectra worksurface is supplied with a loose laminate edge for your installer to apply to the edges of your worksurface. Andromeda Black (Quartz) The Spectra range of kitchen worksurfaces has achieved the ultimate mark of product quality the FIRA Gold Award. Assessed by the Furniture Industry Research Association, the Gold Award gives customers the reassurance that Spectra worksurfaces have been manufactured to the highest possible standards.

19 Care and maintenance Andromeda White (Quartz) Laminate worksurfaces are easy to care for Laminate worksurfaces do not demand time consuming, regular maintenance. Your Spectra worksurface will continue to look good for years to come, provided you follow a few basic guidelines: Worksurfaces should always be protected from hot pans by the use of hob bars or trivets. Never chop food directly onto a worksurface, always use a chopping board. All spills should be mopped up immediately. To keep your worksurface looking its best, wipe it regularly with a damp cloth and buff with a lint-free cloth to remove water marks. To remove everyday stains wipe with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive, surface cleaner. To remove more stubborn marks allow the detergent to soak on the surface for several minutes before rinsing thoroughly with clean water. Spectra s strong inner core means your worksurface will withstand most knocks and bumps, but avoid placing extremely heavy items or standing on your worksurface. For further maintenance advice, please refer to the maintenance guide supplied with each worksurface. DISTINCTIVE WORKSURFACES

21 Spectra and the environment All timber products used in the production of Spectra worksurfaces come from well-managed and sustainable forests, certified in accordance with the rules of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC ) and The Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC). Spectra worksurfaces are both environmentally responsible and have excellent product recycling characteristics. The use of Spectra s amazingly realistic wood grain effects and textures means that it is completely unnecessary to cut down exotic species of timber within our precious forests.
