Zinc is a practical and stylish alternative to tiles, glass, and stainless steel. Its naturally antimicrobial surface makes it ideal for kitchens, while its soft, evolving patina offers a characterful backdrop that complements a wide range of cabinet colours and zinc worktops.

An aged zinc splashback is:

• joint-free across long lengths

• easy to wipe clean

• heat-tolerant around hobs

• naturally hygienic

• available in a range of hand-applied zinc patina finishes

Because every splashback is made to order, we tailor the thickness, patina tone, and edge details to suit your exact kitchen layout.

We fabricate splashbacks from premium European sheet zinc in our UK workshop in sizes up to:

3 metres × 1.25 metres

This allows most kitchens to have a single, joint-free splashback panel, avoiding tile grout lines or visible seams.

Options include:

• cut-outs for sockets, switches, taps & extractor housings

• full-height feature walls

• floating shelves or brackets to match

• splashbacks to pair with zinc worktops and coordinating wall panels

• integrated zinc upstands and corner returns formed as part of the splashback or worktop for a seamless finish

Every splashback is formed to your exact measurements and finished with clean, wrapped edges or folded returns where required.

Every zinc splashback we make is unique and tailored to your space. Whether you need a simple single-panel splashback, a feature wall, or a full zinc kitchen installation, our team can help you choose the right finish, thickness, and detailing.

We’ve been fabricating bespoke zinc interiors for over 15 years.

Frequently Asked Questions – Zinc Splashbacks

Do zinc splashbacks need sealing or lacquering?

Zinc splashbacks do not require sealing in most kitchen applications. Many clients prefer an unlacquered finish so the surface can develop a natural patina over time. Lacquer can be applied for decorative or low-contact areas.

Can zinc splashbacks be made to fit around sockets and hobs?

Yes. All of our zinc splashbacks are made to measure and can include precision cut-outs for sockets, switches, extractor housings, taps, and hob areas. This allows for clean installation and a seamless, joint-free finish.

How do I clean and maintain an aged zinc splashback?

Zinc splashbacks are easy to maintain. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth, and avoid abrasive cleaners. For natural or patinated finishes, occasional waxing can help moderate the development of the living patina while preserving its character.

Are zinc splashbacks suitable for UK kitchens?

Yes. Zinc is naturally hygienic, heat tolerant, and well suited to both contemporary and traditional UK kitchens. Its durability and evolving patina make it a popular choice for residential and commercial interiors alike.
