FAQ

Here are some frequently asked questions from our global clients about materials, finishes, customization, and general cabinetry specifications. These responses provide simple guidance before you discuss project details with us.

Plywood uses cross-layered wood veneers and offers excellent strength and moisture resistance, making it suitable for high-end or wet-area applications.
MDF has a smooth, uniform density that is ideal for painted, lacquered, PET, or acrylic finishes.
Particle board provides a cost-effective structure with stable performance for standard residential or project-based cabinetry.

Popular finish options include melamine, laminate, lacquer, PET, acrylic, and wood veneer. Each finish has its own visual effect, durability level, and maintenance needs. The right choice depends on budget, style preference, and usage environment.

Consider the location (wet vs. dry areas), budget, desired appearance, and frequency of use. For everyday home kitchens, plywood or MDF with PET/melamine finishes are common. For project or rental units, melamine on particle board offers a strong cost–performance balance.

Yes. PET and acrylic finishes have high scratch resistance, stable colour, and a smooth, modern appearance. Acrylic tends to provide a glossier effect, while PET offers a softer matte or satin texture.

Matte surfaces help hide fingerprints and provide a calm, contemporary aesthetic.
Gloss finishes reflect more light, making small spaces appear larger but may require more frequent cleaning.

Yes. Our materials and cabinet components can be adapted to custom dimensions depending on project needs, including kitchens, wardrobes, vanities, and commercial joinery.

Regular cleaning with a soft cloth and mild detergent is sufficient. Avoid abrasive cleaners or strong chemicals, as they may dull the finish over time.

Soft-close hardware is widely used in modern cabinetry because it increases durability and user comfort. Availability depends on the hardware combination selected for your project.
