EGGER UK introduces Eurolight® technology to its worktop range

Egger UK has relaunched its range of worktops to include the exciting new Eurolight lightweight boards

Egger UK has relaunched its range of worktops to include the exciting new Eurolight lightweight boards. The revamped collection – known as ZOOM – now includes a 14-décor range that is available in the standard high quality Euroform® 38mm board as well as in Eurolight® at thicknesses of 38mm and 60mm.

Egger worktops have an attractive finish that can withstand heavy use and are especially popular in environments where shape, colour and texture are just as important as functionality. A combination of Egger laminates and rawboards, the worktops are not only installed in kitchens but also in bathroom, office and living room furniture.

With the introduction of the new lightweight boards to the Zoom worktop range, however, Egger has dramatically increased its versatility.

Eurolight® boards are more than 50% lighter than standard boards and therefore much easier to transport, handle and install. They benefit from a special sandwich construction with surface layers of very rigid Eurospan 2000 thin chipboard and a cardboard honeycomb core. This means there is no compromise in stability or quality

Eurolight also address several environmental issues facing the industry, including the need to reduce the use of raw materials, to reduce energy usage and to increase the effectiveness of logistics

Nick McClughin, marketing manager at Egger UK, said: “Half the weight of standard boards, Eurolight® boards offer a major advantage to fitters in all situations. The 60mm boards in particular offer designers and fitters new opportunities to use a style that is an increasingly popular trend and one which they would have found difficult to follow before the introduction of Eurolight.”
