Kitchen cabinets are a functional yet beautiful part of any home that come in many different styles, shapes, and sizes. Designing the perfect cabinet for your kitchen takes time, expertise, and the right materials. The expert in this video discusses the most popular materials used by kitchen cabinet designers to create beautiful spaces.
First, he speaks about melamine.
This is often just coated with the melamine material as a protective surface, leaving the inside as plywood or particle board. This creates a nice finish on the exterior and provides some protection, but the material inside may cause the cabinet to deteriorate more quickly than other options. Of course, this will cause this option to be the most inexpensive, budget option.
Next, he reviews a UV lacquer-coated plywood or high-density foam. The lacquer provides a nice finish on the exterior that also makes it waterproof. For this option, he recommends the foam interior rather than the plywood as it will be more cost-effective.
Finally, full wood cabinets are the most expensive but classic option. They look great in any kitchen, modern or contemporary. They’ll last for a long time but will not have as many color and style options as other materials.
