Kitchen Cabinet Body Selection

At present, the kitchen cabinet bodies of kitchen cabinets commonly include solid wood particle board, solid wood multilayer board, stainless steel kitchen cabinet body, solid wood kitchen cabinet body, hemp kitchen cabinet body, quartz stone kitchen cabinet body and brick kitchen cabinet body. Let's see which material is the most suitable for making kitchen cabinets!

1. Particleboard

Particleboard (also known as solid wood particle board) is a thin board made of wood chips as the main raw material and pressed with glue and additives.

Advantages: the bending resistance and nail holding force are better than those of MDF, with compact structure, high bending strength, not easy to deform, strong cohesion, and good transverse bearing capacity. The moisture-proof effect is better when adding a moisture-proof agent in the middle

Disadvantages: high requirements for a processing machinery, general moisture resistance, afraid of soaking in water! The surface of particleboard is matte, the color is relatively simple and elegant, and the plates are flat, so there is no way to make concave-convex modeling, which is more suitable for simple style kitchen cabinets.

2. Solid wood multilayer board

Solid wood multilayer board (also known as multilayer plywood or thin core board or plywood)

Advantages: good structural stability, high strength, good bending resistance and not easy to deform. It is an ideal material for the kitchen cabinet body in modern kitchen cabinets. In the same environment, solid wood multi-layer is certainly much better than solid wood particles. Regardless of moisture resistance, deformation resistance and compression resistance, the quality control of domestic multi-layer boards is not very good. It is suggested to choose more famous multi-layer boards, such as red cotton, baby rabbit, Moganshan, etc.

3. Stainless steel kitchen cabinet

The stainless steel kitchen cabinet is made of stainless steel of food-grade

Advantages: superior fire protection performance, high-temperature resistance, and no fear of heat. Even in case of high temperature, the stainless steel kitchen cabinet will not be damaged. In addition, waterproof and having no fear of moisture is also one of the characteristics that it is superior to the wooden kitchen cabinet. Stainless steel kitchen cabinets are easy to clean and relatively environmentally friendly. There is no need to worry about formaldehyde exceeding the standard,

Disadvantages: easy to have water stains.

At ordinary times, the market for pure solid wood kitchen cabinets is very few. Most businesses practice that the kitchen cabinet body is made of solid wood multi-layer or particleboard, and the kitchen cabinet door is made of solid wood fingerboard or solid wood board, which is collectively referred to as solid wood kitchen cabinets.

Advantages: the door panel has good stability and is not easy to crack and deform

5. Granite kitchen cabinet

The granite kitchen cabinet body is made of natural stone, and the hardware accessories can only be fixed by drilling and expanding the plug.

Advantages: high hardness, very durable, and the lowest price.

Disadvantages: after all, it is a natural stone, which will be permeated with color, and the hemp kitchen cabinet is also prone to dust accumulation. In Meiyu weather, it may hang water droplets, which are easy to mildew and not beautiful enough.

6. Quartz kitchen cabinet

Advantages: the quartz stone kitchen cabinet is waterproof and strong enough

Disadvantages: the adhesive adhered to the kitchen cabinet is easy to age in the future, which will make the kitchen cabinet have a heavy peculiar smell, which cannot be eliminated, and the grid is relatively expensive.

Price: solid wood kitchen cabinet > quartz stone > stainless steel > multilayer solid wood board > particle board > hemp stone

Environmental protection: stainless steel kitchen cabinet > quartz stone > hemp stone > solid wood > multi-layer solid wood > particle board

Kitchen Cabinet Table Selection

No matter what kind of stone we choose, the thickness of the stone should not be less than 15mm. Most of the stones on the market are 15mm or 20mm thick, which is no problem. If you choose stainless steel, it should not be less than 0.8mm. Generally, the domestic table steel is 0.8mm and the imported is 1.0mm.

1. Solid wood table

Advantages: high appearance value. When choosing, it's best to choose the wood with slow growth and high density. The solid wood countertop is close to nature and will not be very cold in winter. Occasionally, it can be used as a chopping board temporarily.

Disadvantages: the gap of wood is relatively large, which is easier to hide dirt and dirt, and the water is easy to corrode.

2. Fireproof board table

The scientific name of the refractory board is thermosetting resin impregnated paper high-pressure laminated board. In fact, the fireproof board is particleboard (man-made board)

Advantages: it has certain fire resistance, bright color, good wear resistance, scratch resistance, and high-temperature resistance, and the price is generally 200 ~ 500 yuan / linear meter.

Disadvantages: susceptible to moisture, improper use, easy to degumming, deformation, substrate expansion, etc.

3. Marble countertop

Advantages: the texture of marble is very beautiful, hard, scratch-resistant, good wear resistance, and low cost. The commonly used ones are only about a few hundred yuan a meter.

Disadvantages: marble is inconvenient to splice, so the kitchen cabinet with large size is inconvenient to use; The gap is easy to breed bacteria; Although it is hard, it is not elastic enough. It is easy to break if you chop meat and vegetables too hard at ordinary times.

4. Artificial quartz stone table

Advantages: wear resistance, compound resistance, high-temperature resistance, stamping resistance, and penetration resistance.

Disadvantages: the water absorption is very low, only 0.03%. It has strict requirements for construction technology and high price. It is easy to encounter inferior products or fake goods.

4. Stainless steel countertop

Advantages: the easiest to clean table, in addition to its fire resistance, high-temperature resistance, and easy cleaning, it is also antibacterial; And stainless steel and artificial stone can be made into a seamless design
