Køkkenklinker

Køkkenklinker, a Danish term, refers to the tiles commonly found in kitchen environments, particularly as backsplashes or wall coverings. These tiles serve both a decorative and a practical purpose in a kitchen. Aesthetically, they offer a wide range of colors, patterns, and materials, allowing for personalization of the kitchen's design. Commonly, køkkenklinker are made from ceramic or porcelain due to their durability and ease of cleaning.

Functionally, køkkenklinker are essential for protecting the walls behind cooking surfaces and sinks from splashes of water, grease, and food. Their smooth, non-porous surfaces make them simple to wipe down and maintain hygiene. The grout lines between tiles, however, require regular cleaning to prevent staining and the buildup of grime. The selection of køkkenklinker can influence the overall feel of the kitchen, from a sleek, modern look with large format tiles to a more traditional or rustic ambiance with smaller mosaic or patterned tiles. Installation typically involves adhering the tiles to a prepared wall surface with adhesive and then grouting the spaces between them.
