    Hi all - newbie to the forum and just wondering if anyone can help please.

    Trying to locate a length of worktop (just over 1 metre would do the job).

    Kitchen worktops replaced a while back with Formica Axiom Oriental Block PP0847 (it's a smooth finish with a slight lustre). Need to add a new cupboard and requested a sample from Formica only to find when it arrived and then spoke to them that they've replaced the PP0847 I've got with a textured finish called PP0847 Lumber. Tried everywhere locally and online I can think of but unable to locate the one I have that I think is called PP0847 Matte. Those online that look like it's in stock it isn't when I've enquired, they order direct from a distributor, or if a distributor from Formica, and the descriptions on their websites need updating to say 'lumber'!

    Last local supplier I tried said best bet would be to try any kitchen fitters to see if they had any offcuts left over from a job which is why Ive arrived here. Would be a real life saver if any of you kitchen fitters out their were able to help or could point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the reply kitfit1.
    Yes, knew it was a long shot but worth a try. If you know a kitchen fitter with such a warehouse let me know - there might be a bit of my worktop hidden away
    Thanks for the link. Yes, that is the one I'm after but they're one I've tried and their site is one of those that needs updating. Listed as Matte and in stock but they don't hold stock, they order in and they tell me it will be the Lumber version.
    I'll keep trying - there must be a bit hiding out there somewhere!!

    Thanks Kiab. Site is showing the Lumber version, it's the Matte I'm after but I'll give them a call tomorrow and check them out just in case they have any. Thanks again.

    Hi Kiab - tried them today but no luck. Very friendly and sorry they couldn't help but they don't carry any stock or offcuts and would have to order in and it would be the Lumber finish that would be supplied by Formica, not the discontinued Matte. Thanks for trying to help - the search goes on :)
