Melamine, the budget choice that wipes clean

The panel arrives already finished, so there is nothing to paint and the surface washes down.

What you should know about melamine

What it is made of
A printed paper heat-bonded onto a wood fibreboard core.
Does it handle humidity?
The surface does. Water gets in through an edge that was not closed properly.
Upkeep
A damp cloth does the job, with no powder or scouring pad.
Best used for
Cabinet interiors, shelves and the storage nobody sees.
Price against the others
It is the cheapest cabinet material there is.
Finishes offered
Plain or wood-look decors, with a PVC edge band of at least 1 mm.

A chip cannot be repaired. We replace the part instead.

Questions about melamine

Today's whites hold, even beside a window. It was the very glossy decors of older series that turned, not the panels made now.

Laminate is thicker and takes knocks better, at a higher price. Melamine is enough as soon as a door is not opened fifty times a day.

Yes, that is one of its strongest settings. Washable surfaces, shelves that do not stain, and a cost that leaves budget for the visible areas.

Bringing your kitchen within budget

We put melamine where it will not show and keep the money for the fronts.
