Frequently asked questions about kitchen splashbacks

product

A splashback or splashback is a decorative element used in the kitchen to cover the space between the worktop and the wall units. It serves both as protection against splashes and stains and as an aesthetic element to enhance the kitchen. Kitchen splashbacks are often made of materials such as glass, tiles, stainless steel, plastic or special photo wallpaper. They offer a wide range of design options and can completely change the overall appearance of the kitchen.

A kitchen splashback protects the wall from splashes and dirt. It is easy to clean, offers an attractive design option and gives the kitchen a modern look.

Yes, you can glue a kitchen backsplash to tiles. Using neutral and solvent-free silicone is a popular method of attaching the backing to the tiles. It offers good adhesion and ensures a permanent connection. Before you start gluing, you should make sure the tiles are clean and dry to improve adhesion. Also make sure the back panel is well aligned so it fits perfectly. After gluing, you should let the silicone cure according to the instructions to ensure optimal adhesion. Installing a kitchen splashback on tiles is a practical solution to enhance your kitchen and protect it from splashes.

To clean your acrylic glass splashback, you can follow the steps below:

  1. Step 1: First remove loose dirt and dust from the surface of the kitchen splashback. You can do this with a soft cloth or a feather duster. Make sure you don't use any rough or scratchy materials to avoid scratches.
  2. Step: Prepare a cleaning solution by mixing warm water with mild dish soap. Use a ratio of about 1 teaspoon of dish soap per quart of water. Avoid using aggressive cleaning agents, as these can damage the acrylic glass.
  3. Step 1: Dip a soft, non-abrasive microfiber cloth in the cleaning solution and wring it out well so that it is only slightly damp. Gently wipe the surface of the acrylic glass splashback to remove dirt, grease and other contaminants. Be careful not to apply excessive force to the acrylic glass to avoid scratching.
  4. Step 1: Rinse the kitchen splashback thoroughly with clear water to remove any soap residue. It is best to use a clean, damp cloth to wipe off the residue.
  5. Step 1: Dry the acrylic glass splashback carefully with a soft, lint-free cloth to avoid streaks or water stains. Be careful not to use rough or abrasive cloths to avoid scratching.

It is important to note that you do not use sharp cleaning tools or abrasives as they can damage the acrylic sheet. Additionally, you should avoid cutting or scraping the surface of the kitchen splashback to prevent scratching.

By following these simple steps, you can effectively clean your acrylic splashback and maintain its shine.

Yes, you can use PVC (rigid foam) as a kitchen splashback. PVC foam boards are a popular choice for kitchen splashbacks due to their many positive properties. They are lightweight, durable, water resistant and easy to clean, making them ideal for use in the kitchen. PVC foam panels are available in a variety of colors and designs so you can choose a back panel that suits your individual taste and style. In addition, PVC is an affordable material that works well for a budget project. When purchasing PVC rigid foam boards for a kitchen splashback, you should look for good quality to ensure that it can withstand the demands and last a long time.

Yes, you can stick kitchen splashbacks to wallpaper if you use neutral, solvent-free silicone. It's important to make sure the wallpaper is clean, dry, and smooth before installing the kitchen splashback.

However, note that the durability and stability of the backing can depend on various factors, such as the quality of the wallpaper and the surface of the backing.

If the rear wall of the kitchen is made of acrylic glass, aluminum composite or hard foam, these materials are usually light and can be attached to the wallpaper with silicone.

It is advisable to check the splashback manufacturer's instructions prior to installation to ensure it is suitable for use over wallpaper. It's also a good idea to test the wallpaper in a small, inconspicuous spot to make sure the silicone isn't causing damage or peeling the wallpaper.

Keep in mind that removing kitchen splashback from wallpaper can be tricky and may leave marks.

Installation of a kitchen splashback with installation adhesive:

  • Thoroughly clean the wall to remove dust and dirt.
  • Apply the solvent-free and neutral assembly adhesive evenly to the back of the kitchen splashback.
  • Position the backing board in the desired location on the wall and press firmly.
  • Allow the mounting adhesive to fully cure according to the manufacturer's instructions.

The durability of a kitchen splashback depends on various factors such as the material used, the quality of the installation and proper care. As a rule, quality kitchen splashbacks can last for many years without the need for early renewal.

Glass rear panels or those made of stainless steel are usually durable and can retain their appearance and functionality for years. Durability may be slightly reduced for back panels made of plastic or special films, as they can be more susceptible to scratches or wear.

The care of the kitchen splashback also plays a role. Regular cleaning and avoiding harsh detergents or scratches can help prolong the life of the backplate.

Finally, it is important to note that individual circumstances and usage conditions may vary, so there is no set lifespan. However, a well-maintained splashback should provide an attractive and functional addition to your kitchen for many years to come.

Popart – a colorful kitchen splashback as a statement

In the 1950s, an art movement emerged in the USA and Great Britain that opposed the prevailing abstract expressionism: Pop Art.

Within 10 years it was able to live up to its name (popular art) and enjoyed great popularity. The peculiarity of pop art lies in its attempt to combine everyday life and art.

To this end, the great pop artists of the 50s and 60s focused on trivial motifs from advertising or popular culture. They took objects out of their context. They also changed their meaning by making them the focus of the work of art.

For example, artists alienated cartoon characters or billboards . The goal: to criticize consumer society and to ironically extract something artistic from motifs that are suitable for the masses.

Pop art impresses with its unique painting style with flat areas and an illustrative style. Particular attention is paid to the choice of color . Pop art works are characterized by beguiling, strong primary colors that attract attention.

Mass production in the course of industrialization is reflected in the sequence of motifs , which can be seen as characteristic of the art style. Reproduction was usually made possible by screen printing or offset.

In addition, well-known artists such as Richard Hamilton, Tom Wesselmann, Claes Oldenburg, James Rosenquist, Roy Lichtenstein, Jasper Johns and Andy Warhol used media such as collage, sculpture, installation and photomontage.

They rebelled against the art scene and held the opinion that the works of art in museums and other publicly accessible places had no connection to reality. Media soon dubbed the art form “anti-art.”

Richard Hamilton laid down elementary criteria that, in his opinion, a Pop Art work had to meet. These are still considered mandatory today.

These aspects characterize a pop art work:

  • “Popular”: The work is aimed at a mass audience and not at an elite. Pop art is accessible to everyone and understandable to everyone.

  • “Ephemeral”: Popart is a short-term solution and is not intended to last forever.

  • “Expendable”: Pop art can attract attention and yet quickly be forgotten.

  • “Inexpensive, mass-produced and young”: Pop art is aimed at young people. The works appear gimmicky, funny, sexy, elegant or are designed for profit.

The movement's most important works present household objects or stars. The work of art “Campbell's Soup Cans” by Andy Warhol from 1962, the heyday of Pop Art, shows cans of beans.

Warhol and his colleagues believed that the images of the pop art scene should provide motifs that could be recognized by any layperson within seconds.

Because modern, commercial objects such as Coke cans were avoided in Expressionism. Instead, the focus was on histories, mythologies and morals. Furthermore, Expressionists set themselves the goal of presenting the artist's self.

The pop art scene in the USA impressively demonstrated that all objects and people can serve as inspiration. For example, James Rosenquist portrayed Marilyn Monroe in “Marilyn Monroe, I” .

In his work, Rosenquist refers to the concept of the “American Dream” and the pursuit of big money and unsurpassable beauty. The longing for success, money and an attractive appearance led to the adoration of US celebrities in the 50s and 60s.

The angular, striking style and proportions represented a counter-image to the painterly detachment of abstract expressionism. The difference between “low” and “high” art became blurred and the definition of art was turned on its head.

At this point in time, works of art first attracted the interest of the general population. From then on, art was no longer aimed exclusively at elites, but was recognized and appreciated by the general public . That is why Pop Art represents a significant movement and an irrevocable turning point in the art scene.

With a pop art style kitchen splashback, you can opt for trendy styles that reflect the spirit of the 1950s and 1960s. The typical comic style creates a contemporary flair and appears informal. This creates a relaxed atmosphere that offers space for good conversations.

Another advantage: the kitchen back walls are not just visually impressive. Rather, the panels can be cleaned quickly and easily. As a result, your kitchen will shine with a tidy look day after day.

The materials

Which material is best suited as a kitchen splashback in a shabby chic style? If you are also asking yourself this question, this article provides the answer: Materials such as aluminum dibond, acrylic glass and rigid foam are common because they meet the highest quality standards and are suitable for damp rooms.

When choosing the material, take your needs and taste into account. For example, you need to consider which stove you use and which splash guard feel you prefer. But what exactly characterizes the individual materials?

Hard foam – robust, cost-effective and light

Long-lasting splash guard at an attractive price: A kitchen back wall made of hard foam has a low weight. It is easy to assemble. The decor is applied directly to the foamed and hardened plastic during production.

The surface impresses with its smooth structure. This makes it easy to clean the shabby hard foam back wall. For this you can use, for example, a microfiber cloth and a mixture of water and a dash of detergent. Special and expensive cleaners are not necessary.

The benefit: Kitchen splashbacks with a thickness of 3 millimeters produce a perfect result and come with an attractive price . This way you save money and still benefit from a long-lasting and resistant back wall for your kitchen.

The kitchen back walls support the indoor air quality and are subject to strict quality controls . Every product has the GreenGuardGold label and is produced in Germany.

A tip: If you have a gas stove, you should use a kitchen panel made of aluminum composite or acrylic glass, because the kitchen wall made of hard foam is sensitive to heat.

Aluminum composite – elegant, stable and heat-resistant

You can achieve an elegant look with a kitchen back wall made of aluminum composite material. In particular, intense colors come into their own here. In addition, the 3 millimeter thick aluminum composite kitchen back walls prove to be easy to clean and dimensionally stable .

The special feature: The kitchen back wall consists of two plastic panels, between which an aluminum layer is placed. This creates a stable and long-lasting product.

Make sure you choose kitchen splashbacks that have a certificate and do not affect indoor air quality. An example are kitchen splashbacks, Made in Germany , which carry the GreenGuardGold label.

It is also advisable to determine the size of the kitchen back wall exactly in advance. This way you avoid subsequent cuts.

Acrylic glass – shiny, modern and shatterproof

Do you want your kitchen to look elegant? A shiny kitchen splashback made of acrylic glass gives the room a modern touch. The smooth surface structure is quick to clean and easy to maintain.

The design proves to be flexible, so you benefit from a large selection of motifs. On top of that, high-quality kitchen panels are made of shatterproof glass that will last you for many years.

In contrast to aluminum composite, the 3 millimeter thick acrylic glass kitchen walls can quickly show scratches. Nevertheless, the glass panels are an excellent choice for quickly and easily redesigning your kitchen and achieving a perfect result.

The acrylic glass walls also have the GreenGuardGold label and are made in Germany.

Shabby chic: what makes this style so special

Shabby chic refers to an interior design style that combines old, new and bizarre . For example, a shabby chic room features modern items, heirlooms, flea market acquisitions or homemade decorative items.

The furnishing style goes back to Rachel Ashwell, an enthusiastic flea market visitor. Her interior design impressed with a sensational mix of new or used individual pieces that radiated feminine elegance . Most of the items showed signs of wear, which Ashwell skillfully highlighted using shimmering materials.

Today, items are produced in shabby chic. They show artificial signs of wear such as peeling paint.

The materials usually used are leather, linen or wood. But ceramics, crystal, paper or glass are also increasingly being used to furnish a room in shabby style. The furniture complements oriental rugs, floral wallpaper, kilims and lush bouquets.

If you choose a shabby chic kitchen back wall, you are designing a room with history. For example, you can remind us of the heyday of pop art or create a feminine flair.

Color worlds – tone-setting nuances

The shabby look is dominated by subtle pastel tones such as pink, turquoise, yellow or green, as well as primary colors such as old white. The color combinations appear feminine, inviting and light. This way you can give your kitchen a cozy touch.

Strong colors do not appear. However, you can also use the kitchen wall as a statement . For example, you choose a pop art-style kitchen wall and use subtle colors for the rest of the furnishings. In this way you draw attention to the kitchen panel and showcase your kitchen unit.

An eye-catcher in the kitchen: patterns and motifs of the shabby chic style

One thing is certain: the shabby chic style tells a story. And this story should run like a common thread through your kitchen furnishings.

For example, you can rely on typical floral or oriental patterns . Paisly patterns, animal motifs or toile de jouy also appear frequently. The Toile-de-Jouy (the cloth from Jouy-en-Josas in France) is a fabric that is embossed using a special textile printing process.

The white fabric is decorated with either red or blue flower or tendril motifs. Shepherd or shepherd scenes are also considered characteristic.

The conclusion – robust shabby kitchen splashbacks for that special flair

Eating in a cozy atmosphere: The kitchen is the heart of every home. Here we meet family members, entertain friends or enjoy our first coffee of the day in complete silence.

This makes it all the more important to make the kitchen appealing. This is how we ensure that we enjoy spending time in the center of our apartment.

A real highlight is a durable kitchen back wall. It serves as a splash guard and also fulfills a similar function to a decorative wall picture. If you choose a panel in shabby chic or pop art style, you will create a unique atmosphere and draw every guest's eye specifically to your kitchenette.

The high-quality protection consists of hard foam, aluminum dibond or glass. There is a large selection of different categories and image worlds available to you.

Make sure that the kitchen back wall does not influence the quality of the air in the room. Meaningful certificates such as the GreenGuardGold label ensure that the materials do not emit any harmful substances.
