The following options define a project discussion range. Grade, thickness, color, texture, model and suitability require confirmation during quotation and sampling.
boards
Particle Board
A dependable core for everyday cabinetry. Its consistent structure and efficient use of wood make it a practical starting point for melamine-faced cabinets.
Wardrobe carcasses, kitchen cabinets and project storage
Specification note
Confirm board grade, thickness, density requirements, edge treatment and destination documentation.
Considerations & applications
Good value; consistent machining

boards
Plywood
Cross-laminated wood layers bring strength and useful screw-holding performance. The layered edge can be concealed or treated as a deliberate detail.
Kitchen, vanity and demanding cabinet structures, with an appropriate grade
Specification note
Confirm core composition, face grade, thickness, bonding requirements and exposed-edge treatment.
Considerations & applications
Layered strength; versatile joinery

boards
MDF
A fine, even surface gives painted and routed doors a clean foundation. It is especially useful when the design calls for profiles rather than flat fronts.
Painted cabinet fronts, wardrobe doors and decorative furniture
Specification note
Confirm thickness, routed profile, coating compatibility and the intended environment.
Considerations & applications
Smooth paint base; precise routed profiles
Painted cabinet fronts, wardrobe doors and decorative furniture
boards
HMR Board
A moisture-resistant core for spaces that need extra care around humidity. Pair the correct grade with sealed edges and sensible splash protection.
Kitchen and vanity cabinetry away from prolonged direct water exposure
Specification note
Confirm the actual moisture-resistance grade and use limitations; moisture resistance does not mean waterproof.
Considerations & applications
Improved moisture resistance over standard grades; not waterproof

boards
OSB
Large oriented wood strands create an expressive, textured panel. Consider it for structural backing or an intentionally raw interior accent.
Project furniture, backing and selected decorative panels
Specification note
Confirm structural or decorative use, face treatment, board grade and fastening needs.
Considerations & applications
Distinctive strand texture; structural grades available
