Bushboard's Encore combines superb design and margin opportunities

Bushboard’s Encore range of ex-stock solid surfaced products offers retailers superb design and margin opportunities by bringing the aspirational look of solid surfacing within the reach of the discerning mid market consumer. A key benefit of Encore for the retailer is the ability to have complete control over the installation. Encore can be installed using the retailer’s own installer, rather than sub contracting out, thereby improving margin, speeding completion and collecting payment more promptly.

Encore comes in a choice of 8 fashionable colours and is available in worksurfaces, upstands and splashbacks giving scope for any interior scheme. The unique undermount sink solution enhances the design flexibility of this product further, with retailers being able to offer a fully fitted worktop with an undermount sink and drainer grooves at a third of the price compared to bespoke and modular systems currently on the market. From March, the range will also include a 2m length worktop aimed at reducing waste and improving margin. An added advantage is that this component is specified with colour-matched high pressure laminate on the reverse and so can be used as a very cost effective blanked-off end which is a feature often seen on top end kitchens.

For its Encore product, Bushboard run weekly free training sessions at its Northampton headquarters, as well as specialist regional courses through its national distribution network.
