The Art of a Perfect Fit: How Custom Stainless Steel Worktops Bring Design and Function Together

Precision, durability, and aesthetic harmony are what every designer and specifier looks for in a work surface. At GEC Anderson®, those qualities are not simply features—they are the foundation of everything we make. Our stainless steel worktops are fully made to measure, designed and manufactured to fit each project with exacting precision, ensuring a perfect blend of design freedom and practical performance.

Whether for professional kitchens, laboratories, healthcare environments, or architectural interiors, our bespoke stainless steel surfaces offer a unique combination of form, function, and longevity that standard worktops simply cannot match.

Tailored to Every Space

Every environment is different, and every design deserves precision. That’s why GEC Anderson® stainless steel worktops are fabricated to your exact dimensions, down to the millimetre.

From rectangular to L-shaped or U-shaped configurations—and even complex curved or irregular forms—our worktops are made as seamless, single-piece installations wherever possible. This precision eliminates joints, crevices and dirt traps, ensuring not only a clean and uncluttered appearance but also superior hygiene and ease of maintenance.

Our made-to-measure stainless steel worktops can be produced up to 7000 mm in length, with maximum return dimensions of 2300 mm for L-shaped designs. Corners can be produced at any angle, giving architects and fabricators complete flexibility to achieve the perfect fit in tight, asymmetrical, or visually demanding spaces.

It’s this ability to tailor every surface to its environment that makes GEC Anderson® worktops a trusted choice for architects, contractors, and designers across the UK.

Every Detail Considered

What makes a GEC Anderson® worktop truly distinctive is the attention to every fine detail. From edge profiles and taphole placement to sink integration and cut-outs, everything is designed exactly to plan.

We offer a comprehensive range of edge profiles, each engineered for both performance and aesthetic continuity. Options include anti-drip lips, raised edges, integral upstands, and even the distinctive Edge 9 “Shark Nose” design for a modern, minimal finish. Each edge profile can be specified in various combinations and adapted for purpose—whether to retain water, prevent spillage, or create a seamless visual transition between surfaces.

Every worktop is fabricated with a solid 19 mm substrate for sound deadening and rigidity, with the option of deeper substrate thickness for bespoke applications. This combination of structure and precision gives every GEC Anderson® surface its unmistakable quality and long-term reliability.

Integrated stainless steel sink bowls, drainers, and recessed wet zones can be included within any worktop configuration. Each sink is formed seamlessly into the surface for a unified appearance and maximum hygiene—ideal for high-use environments such as catering facilities, healthcare settings, and laboratories.

Form Meets Function

Our stainless steel worktops are as much a design feature as they are a technical solution. The brushed satin finish complements any surrounding material—from stone and composite to glass and timber—while providing an easy-clean, non-porous surface that resists staining, heat, and corrosion.

Beyond their visual appeal, GEC Anderson® worktops are built to perform. Each surface is engineered for strength, durability, and daily use in demanding environments. The result is a worktop that looks exceptional on day one and performs flawlessly for decades.

And when it comes to installation, our expertise ensures that every section fits perfectly, first time. Where joins are unavoidable, Clamp Joins are used to create a near-invisible mechanical connection, sealed watertight with clear silicone to maintain hygiene and visual flow.

The Sustainable Choice

Stainless steel is one of the most sustainable materials in modern manufacturing. Every GEC Anderson® stainless steel worktop is made from 100% recyclable material, ensuring both environmental responsibility and long-term efficiency.

The lifespan of our worktops far exceeds that of many traditional alternatives, reducing waste, replacement costs, and environmental impact. Their ability to be repurposed or recycled at the end of life further reinforces their sustainable value—an increasingly important factor in contemporary specification and design.

By combining precision fabrication with responsible material sourcing, GEC Anderson® provides products that meet today’s sustainability standards without compromising on style or performance.

Where Design and Detail Come Together

At GEC Anderson®, craftsmanship and engineering precision come together to create stainless steel worktops that are both functional and beautiful. Our products are more than surfaces—they’re complete design solutions that enhance hygiene, simplify installation, and elevate the overall quality of every project.

With seamless integration, made-to-measure fabrication, and a wealth of design options, our stainless steel kitchens, worktops, cabinets, frames and supports, splashbacks, steel basins, and individual stainless steel sink bowls all work together to deliver lasting value and performance.

When precision, hygiene, and longevity matter, GEC Anderson® ensures the perfect fit—every time.
