Laminate is a synthetic material placed on top of particle board, which is made of compressed wood. It is available in both high and low pressure. When it comes to laminate cupboards, homeowners have a wide range of styles to choose from. In general, laminate kitchen cupboard is best suited for modern or contemporary kitchen designs; however, there are styles that can replicate more traditional cabinet designs. If you are looking for a versatile, durable, low-cost alternative to wood cabinets, especially if you have modern or contemporary ideas for your kitchen cabinets, laminate kitchen cabinets can be a great option for your kitchen design.
The base material of the laminate finish cabinets is MDF, and the grade of our MDF has reached the high-density medium fiberboard. The process of lamination is relatively long, and a highly viscous environmentally friendly glue is used to adsorb in the laminating machine. The laminate can be made into a flat plate or some shapes can be made to achieve the effect of imitating solid wood. The surface is waterproof and easy to clean.
Due to the way laminate doors are made, seams from the underlying particleboard (brown) may show, which is often considered a disadvantage of laminate cupboards. Low-pressure laminates, such as melamine, are used in less expensive kitchen cabinets and are not as durable as high-pressure varieties. It's also available in fewer colors, so it's less appealing to homeowners looking for a variety of color options. In addition, laminate cabinets are not impenetrable and will be easily damaged, once it is damaged, deep cuts and cracks are impossible to repair.
The surface of the laminate cupboards is a sheet of laminated paper, which is waterproof and can be cleaned with a clean rag or cleaning paper. It does not need to be cleaned with a special detergent, which is relatively simple. However, the laminate board should not be exposed to the sun or immersed in water for a long time, and the edge of the laminate is easy to be degummed.
