The Microcement Kitchens Guide: Splashbacks, Islands & Benchtops

How seamless microcement transforms a Central Coast kitchen — from splashback and rangehood through to islands, benchtops and feature walls.

01

One material, one continuous gesture

Microcement allows the kitchen to read as a single sculptural form. Splashbacks flow uninterrupted into walls, islands carry through to benchtops, and rangehood surrounds disappear into the architecture.

The result is a calm, gallery-like backdrop that lets cabinetry, stone, timber and food do the talking.

02

Where microcement works in the kitchen

Splashbacks and full feature walls, rangehood surrounds, island wraps, butler's pantries, plinths and even benchtops — all in a custom warm-neutral palette matched to your joinery and stone.

03

Heat, water and everyday wear

Sealed with high-performance Mineral fox / Mercadier topcoats, kitchen microcement resists moisture, heat and the everyday rituals of a working home. Trivets are still recommended under very hot cookware, exactly as for natural stone.

04

Cost and what drives it

Splashback-only kitchens are an accessible entry point. Full kitchens with microcement benchtops, islands and feature walls are a premium investment — comparable to high-end stone fabrication, with the advantage of a fully seamless finish.

05

Designing the colour

We recommend selecting the microcement colour after cabinetry, stone and floor finishes are locked in. Microcement should sit comfortably within the scheme — a quiet, tactile counterpoint to the harder materials around it.
