Porcelain Kitchen Worktops: Pros, Ideas & Maintenance Tips
What you need to know and how porcelain compares to other materials.
Porcelain kitchen worktops are made from high-quality raw materials, compressed under extreme pressure and fired at very high temperatures. The result is a hard, non-porous surface that’s highly resistant to heat and UV radiation – making it ideal for use in the kitchen. With minimal maintenance, you can keep your worktop looking great for years to come.
Brachot offers Uniceramica®: a premium range of porcelain surfaces made using advanced production techniques. With designs that mimic natural stone, Uniceramica® combines high performance with refined aesthetics – perfect for contemporary interiors.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, solid white porcelain worktops like Uniceramica Bianco Assoluto are a stylish and durable option for kitchens. However, do keep in mind that on a pure white surface, dirt, grease, and streaks tend to be more visible. As a result, porcelain worktops generally require slightly more maintenance than solid white quartz worktops. For best results, we recommend regular maintenance using a product like Lithofin KF Intensive Cleaner.
