Concrete-Look Walls with Lavasteen: 5 Applications that work
The name suggests floors, but a Lavasteen Seamless Floor often comes into its own even better on walls. The same material that is applied as a floor can be used on virtually any wall — for a finish that feels mineral, is seamless, and robust enough for commercial spaces. Below are five applications we frequently encounter.
1. Kitchen splashback without joints
In many kitchens, the wall behind the hob and worktop is tiled — with grout that traps grease splashes and cooking moisture. A Lavasteen Seamless Floor offers a seamless alternative here that is easy to clean. Combine with a subtle shade that complements your kitchen units.
2. Complete bathroom walls
In the bathroom, a Lavasteen Seamless Floor on the walls offers something tiles cannot: an uninterrupted surface from floor to ceiling. No edge joints, no transition strips, no grout that discolours over time. Particularly attractive in combination with the same finish on the floor.
3. Feature wall in the living room
Finishing a single wall in Lavasteen instantly gives a room character. Dark shades (anthracite, graphite) make a statement; light shades (sand, taupe) bring warmth and texture without dominating. Suitable behind the sofa, behind the TV unit or as a wall behind the headboard of a bed.
4. Walls in shops, offices and hospitality
In commercial spaces, Lavasteen's understated look really comes into its own. Hardness and scratch resistance are essential here — walls are often accidentally knocked, and standard paint is worn out within a year. Lavasteen seamless floors continue to look sharp for years, even with intensive use.
5. Staircase and hallway walls
Places where people pass with bags, bicycles, pushchairs. Standard wall finishes take knock after knock here. A Lavasteen Seamless Floor is one of the few finishes that still looks pristine here after years of use — and because it is only a few millimetres thick, it goes over existing wall coverings without endless demolition.
How does a Lavasteen Seamless Floor fit on the wall?
Virtually any stable wall is suitable: plaster, concrete, rendered, tiles, plasterboard, wooden panels. With the right primer and preparation, the material adheres without issue. For doubtful cases (damp-proofing, cracks), there is always a suitable solution.
Maintenance and durability
Walls finished with a Lavasteen Seamless Floor require hardly any maintenance. No grout that discolours, no paint that flakes. The PU topcoat is pore-filling and UV-stable — multiple coats partially fill the natural texture, leaving a smoother, easy-clean surface. Even cleaning with bleach is possible, should it be necessary. The material is also remarkably robust and resistant to normal impact loads.
