Copper Splashbacks for your Kitchen
A special feature of buying bespoke copper splashbacks for your kitchen from Designs05 is that we can cut them up to 300cm long with heights up to 120cm without a joint. A computer-run machine cuts socket cutouts, corner cuts, and obstacle clearances. Just look at the kitchen below with the lake view—(I know!)—two 300cm runs of aged copper splashbacks look amazing.
Aged Copper Splashback
Splashbacks with fewer joints are visually better, we can also apply this construction method to our copper worktops and copper table tops to create a much better aesthetic.
This splashback is in aged copper.
Standard-length splashback
Our Standard Copper Splashbacks are available in widths from 60cm to 240cm and heights to 120cm.
We recommend 1.2mm thick copper sheet throughout, though smaller sizes, 60cm x 90 cm for example 0.9mm thick can be used for economy.
This splashback to the right has an aged patina finish.
Patina Selector
Choose one of the copper patina finishes from this selector. Remember, these are typical images. Each piece we create is unique; it is a hand-applied artisan product.
For a quotation, we only need a dimensioned sketch or the rectangle size if no added work is involved.

Patina
Our patina finishes are artisan, produced in our patina studio, each piece of copper is a statement piece, no two are the same, the pattern and amount of patina will vary as this is the nature of the beast. It is copper wall art. The copper splashback in this picture has a blue patina copper.
Blue and Verdigris patina finishes will have a clear lacquer applied to seal the patina.
Typical aged patina copper can be supplied as waxed or clear lacquered, waxed finish will continue to patina as would natural copper, the patina just takes away the newness.

Manufacture Options for Copper Splashbacks
Copper splashbacks can be supplied as sheet only for direct fixing, we recommend 1.2mm thick to help with handling during installation and for better flatness, alternatively we can fabricate the copper onto MRMDF, thickness typically, 9, 12 or 18mm, with wrapped edges. Corners can be welded or not; it’s the client’s choice. Plain sheets can be bonded directly to the wall (the wall needs to be suitably flat); adhesives such as HB40 are suitable, but avoid any silicones that are acid-curing. They can attack the copper.
How to Order a Copper Splashback
We work with architects, designers, builders and directly with home owners.
If the design is simple, just rectangles then we can work from email sizes. Often, this is not the case, and socket cutouts and obstacles like columns are involved. So, we can either work from a dimensioned sketch, a DWG or DXF, in many cases customers supply a template cut from a semi rigid plastic sheet or hardboard for example.
Quotation
We only need a dimensioned sketch or the rectangle size for a quotation if no added work is involved.

Copper table tops are always a good match for copper splashback. Why not order a matching pair?
