With our best ever month for the number of sample requests behind us, we’re lucky to have such a large pool of customer data to refer to for providing insight into what the market will look like over the coming year. Not only is this a great indication that the market is bouncing back, but it helps us advise our retail partners on what customers are looking for when it comes to their worktops this coming year. This trend predicting data can help retailers gain better insight into the types of worktops that are fuelling their would-be customers’ desires and ensure they have a worktop offering that will wow them and result in a sales conversion.
If you’re looking through these top 3 trends and wanting to ensure your own offering meets customer needs then please reach out to your local sales representative or our customer service team (customer.service@caesarstone.co.uk) for advice on how we can help you.
Trend #1 – Bold & Beautiful
Three of our top ten sample requests were creamy-white based surfaces with striking veining.
508 Isobellia came in top. This beautifully sleek surface is unlike anything else in the market showing a spectacular and lively criss-crossing of oversized ancient copper-coloured veins and fine crackled lines. The silk finish makes this surface impossible not to touch and would add a dynamic drama to any kitchen space.
5171 Arabetto is a bold surface with dynamic veining that span across a crisp white surface, capturing a complex composition of minerals in a delicate interlacing of jade and copper that thread through this impressive stone.
503 Circa is a great choice for anyone who wants bold veining and striking patterns but in a more neutral colour palette. From dramatic strokes outlined by heavier tones to hints of soft greys that are finely etched in the background, this surface creates profound depth that catches the eye.
Trend #2 – Creamy & Marble-Inspired
Two of our top ten were beautiful odes to marble, oozing luxury and warmth.
506 Mirabel has been popular ever since its launch back in 2022 and its popularity certainly isn’t waning anytime soon as demonstrated by the sheer number of sample requests. Mirabel has an ivory base mixed that is densely traversed by wide charcoal and grey veins floating across it like clouds with copper accents, creating the opaque depth of hard marble with the soft translucency of alabaster. The silk finish only adds to the luxurious look of this surface.
6046 Moorland Fog is another Caesarstone favourite that is having a resurgence in popularity, and its easy to see why. Its densely rich, creamy, light-coloured canvas is flushed with a touch of taupe and swirly veins in foggy browns and greys. It is the perfect marrying of neutral tones making it a wonderful choice for those who find luxury and comfort in a sea of neutrals.
Trend #3 – Dark & Dramatic
Three more of our top ten sample requests were dark surfaces, a trend that has been rising in popularity for a few years now.
5101 Empira Black is a deep, dark stone that is mysterious and opulent, with touches of fine white veining that flow organically across it, contrasting and blending together into a one-of-a-kind surface. This surface adds atmosphere and luxury to any design.
5820 Darcrest is a beautifully organic surface with a dark earthy base that is enriched by tiny spots and sediments of ochre and brownish greens like erosion on a rocky hillside. Its honed finish makes it smooth to the touch.
511 Smokestone has a midnight-black base showered with chalky-white lines that strike like lightning, interlaced with finer veins that move across its emotive black base. The Ultra-Rough finish adds to this surfaces tactility.
We hope this collection of beautiful surface designs helps you gain a better understanding of the popular trends this year and inspires you for upcoming projects. Do reach out to the Caesarstone team if there’s anything we can do to help you or your customers.
