Description
The face here is a carbon fibre texture: dark, matt and finely grained, so it catches the light differently as you move past it, with chrome to lift it. No screws show on the front, which lets the plate read as a clean square against the wall. Behind the face is a 13A power point with a rocker switch, so the supply can be cut without unplugging anything. The plate is square and slim in profile, which keeps it discreet in a run of accessories along a worktop or a desk.
We would choose it in a room already committed to dark finishes, where a white moulded plate breaks the line: a kitchen with graphite units, a study with a black desk, a media wall, or a utility room with a workbench. It reads as technical rather than decorative, which suits modern and industrial schemes and sits happily beside matt black ironmongery. This is for indoor rooms on ordinary UK household mains, and being a single it earns its keep where wall space is tight or a spare point is wanted beside a bed.
Construction is polycarbonate with metal components, and the texture is consistent across the face. It carries a ten year warranty. For upkeep, dust with a dry cloth and lift fingerprints with a barely damp one, then dry it off; sprays, solvents and cream cleaners will dull the grain, so keep them well away from the plate. We like the carbon fibre against chrome or brushed metal ironmongery, where the dark grain picks up the metal without trying to match it, and it is worth keeping the same plate style through a room so the eye is not caught by a change of face.
