Worktop Thickness Guide: 20mm vs 30mm – What to Choose?

Thickness makes a big difference to the style of your kitchen.

• 20mm Worktops: Sleek, modern, and lighter in weight. Often chosen for minimalist designs.
• 30mm Worktops: Bold, substantial, and luxurious. Provide a stronger visual impact and feel more premium.
• Practicality: Both thicknesses are equally durable—choice comes down to design preference.
• Cost: 30mm slabs may be slightly more expensive due to material use.

For contemporary spaces, 20mm quartz or porcelain is popular. For traditional or luxury kitchens, 30mm granite or marble is the classic choice.
