Tempered glass panels, often adorned with decorative elements like colors, textures, or digital prints, serve as a protective and aesthetically pleasing wall covering between countertops and cabinets in Singaporean kitchens. These sleek surfaces are easy to clean, resistant to heat and stains, and provide a modern alternative to traditional materials like tiles or stainless steel.
This type of kitchen cladding offers significant advantages in a humid climate like Singapore’s. The non-porous nature of glass prevents mold and mildew growth, contributing to a more hygienic kitchen environment. Its reflective qualities can also enhance the perception of space and light, making even compact kitchens appear larger and brighter. While historically, tiles dominated kitchen backsplashes, the increasing popularity of minimalist and contemporary design has led to a surge in the use of glass in recent years.
