How to choose plates for cabinet decoration?

When decorating cabinets, some people choose customized products, while others choose carpentry to make them on site. Either way, the most important thing is to choose a good plate. Some materials have high formaldehyde content and volatilize slowly. If you choose this plate, your family will live in a toxic environment for a long time, which will have adverse consequences for your health.

Let's talk about several commonly used plates, first of all, granular plates, which are widely used in custom wardrobes. This board is very cheap. Why is it cheap? Because this kind of board is made of sawdust and a lot of glue, it is full of "technology and hard work", and it is also covered with various wood grain stickers to make all kinds of cabinet furniture, which is difficult for us as ordinary decoration owners to distinguish. Once you choose this kind of furniture cheaply, you will live in a toxic environment for a long time. There is a lot of glue in the board, and formaldehyde volatilizes slowly. In addition, this kind of board has poor waterproof ability, and it will crack and peel when it is touched with some water, especially when it is used in the kitchen. After a while, the cupboard door will fall off, and the cupboard will grow mushrooms when it is damp and moldy. Therefore, this plate is not recommended.

Second, the multi-layer board, also called plywood, is made of laminated pieces of wood, which is relatively stable in structure, durable and waterproof, but it should not be used as a cabinet door, which is easy to deform, and it is still possible to make a cabinet body.

Third, the European pine version, also known as particleboard, is made by throwing solid wood particles with a machine and pressing them with glue. Although this kind of board is said to have better waterproof performance than particleboard, it is also not environmentally friendly and is not suitable for large-scale use. It is possible to make some cabinet doors for small-scale use.

4. Incense board: This board is made of rice husk straw and isocyanate resin, which is said to be formaldehyde-free glue at high temperature and high pressure. This kind of board has a unified structure and can be used as cabinets and doors. However, due to its high hardness, it needs construction, and improper cutting will lead to edge collapse.

5. Eco-board. This kind of board is loose, waterproof and moisture-proof, lower than multilayer board, and most of it is pine in the middle. Suitable for carpentry on-site production, easy to cut, and can be used as a cabinet.

If you choose to buy customized finished cabinets, and some of them are glued, it is difficult to tell what plates they are, so it is best to choose carpenters to build them on site, so that owners can clearly know what plates to use when cutting plates on site, which is more durable and more environmentally friendly.
