In the past, solid wood was the only option for furniture manufacturing. But this has taken a 360º turn with many new generation materials. Today we want to highlight and give the importance it deserves to melamine kitchen furniture, a practical material that provides excellent performance and extraordinary aesthetics.
What is melamine?
Melamine is a particle agglomerate board (chips and sawdust) coated with a melamine resin veneer on both sides. The result obtained is a resistant panel that can withstand the following:
- Temperature changes.
- Abrasion.
- Humidity.
- Contact with aggressive cleaning products due to their components.
- In addition, it is necessary to emphasize, at this point, that it does not allow the development of parasites, unlike wood.
These five characteristics make melamine the perfect material for manufacturing kitchen furniture.
Designs and colors of melamine kitchen furniture
Melamine offers a wide range of possibilities, not only in designs and colors but also in textures, as with wood. Indeed it has ever happened to us that we have doubted whether it was made of wood or melamine. Well, there is no doubt, considering what we tell you.
Its plain colors and original designs, some even imitating marble, make it ideal for kitchen furniture and other details such as backsplash, even for different types of furniture, such as living rooms or bedrooms, for example, closets for the smallest of the house.
Advantages of melamine kitchen furniture
- Melamine undoubtedly has an excellent quality/price ratio. The cost is significantly reduced because it does not require the sanding and polishing process that wood needs.
- Easy to clean, as mentioned above.
- Melamine resins are made of antibacterial plastic material.
Melamine and its contribution to environmental protection
As if that were not enough, melamine is an environmentally friendly product thanks to the low energy consumption required for its production. Most of the raw material for melamine comes from the recycling of sawmills. It is considered an ecological material since the waste it produces is minimal, a characteristic that contributes to the fight against global warming.
