splashback
Behind the sink
Splashback is the panel behind a sink or stovetop that protects the wall from water and grease—called a backsplash in American English.
The word also describes liquid rebounding from a surface, particularly the unpleasant spray from a toilet bowl: The urinal's design minimizes splashback.
