Mica Splashbacks
Introducing the Mica Splashbacks collection, a range of bespoke, made-to-measure glass splashbacks meticulously crafted for contemporary kitchens. This unique collection showcases the inherent beauty of crushed minerals, offering a captivating 3D deep structured design that adds a sophisticated, natural texture to your cooking space. Ideal for homeowners and designers seeking a distinctive, high-quality feature that complements modern aesthetics, these splashbacks provide an elegant alternative to conventional wall coverings.
Crafted Around Your Unique Kitchen
At CreoGlass, we understand that every kitchen is unique. Rather than offering standard panels, our bespoke glass splashbacks are designed to integrate seamlessly with your individual kitchen layout. Each piece is precisely measured and manufactured to accommodate worktops, cabinetry, sockets, corners, and extractor areas, ensuring a flawless fit that enhances your space.
Opting for a CreoGlass bespoke splashback means investing in a perfectly fitted, custom-designed centrepiece. This contrasts with standard-size DIY options, which may require compromise on dimensions and integration, potentially detracting from the overall design cohesion.
Discover the Mica Collection's Aesthetic
The Mica Splashbacks collection is defined by its captivating use of natural minerals, offering a visually rich and textural experience. Each splashback features finely crushed minerals embedded within durable, toughened glass, creating a unique, light-catching surface. The natural colours derived from these minerals provide a crisp, textured finish that adds depth and character to any kitchen.
Designing with Mica Splashbacks
Consider how the distinctive finishes of the Mica collection can harmonise with your kitchen's overall scheme. The natural mineral textures and colours lend themselves exceptionally well to contemporary, minimalist, and highly architectural kitchen designs, providing a subtle yet impactful focal point. They pair beautifully with sleek cabinetry, natural stone or solid surface worktops, and modern flooring, creating a cohesive and luxurious environment.
The Practical Advantages of Glass Splashbacks

Mica & Mineral Finishes
These finishes excel when you seek to introduce natural textures and subtle, light-reflective qualities. They create a sense of depth and organic beauty, making the splashback a sophisticated statement piece that complements minimalist or natural-inspired kitchen designs.
Colour Matching and Samples
To ensure complete satisfaction, we offer a sample service. We highly recommend assessing samples in your kitchen's actual lighting, alongside your cabinetry and worktops.

Layouts: Complex arrangements, including corners, returns, and full-height installations, can be accommodated.

Can glass splashbacks go behind a hob?
Glass splashbacks can be installed behind hobs, provided the correct toughened glass specification and installation method are employed. Project-specific suitability will be confirmed during your consultation or survey.
Can you cut around sockets?
Absolutely. Socket, switch, and other necessary cut-outs can be incorporated into the design, provided it is technically feasible. These details must be confirmed prior to manufacture.
Do you measure the splashback?
For our professionally installed bespoke projects, a thorough site survey is conducted by our expert team to establish the final manufacturing dimensions and installation requirements.
Can I order a splashback without installation?
Yes, we offer a supply-only or DIY route. In this case, you are responsible for providing accurate, confirmed dimensions for manufacture.
Can I see samples before ordering?
We offer a sample service to help you choose your finish. We strongly advise viewing samples in your kitchen's actual lighting conditions to ensure the colour and reflective properties meet your expectations.
Can you match the splashback to my kitchen?
We can work with cabinet colours, worktop references, paint codes, or design inspirations to guide your selection. While we strive for the closest visual match, exact colour replication may depend on the chosen finish and manufacturing process.
Can you install full-height glass between the worktop and wall cabinets?
Certainly. Larger and more complex installations, including full-height panels, can be considered. These are subject to accurate measurements, site access, glass specification, and a detailed survey.
