We know that Kitchen PVC Skirting Board is common when PVC materials are used as cabinet supplies. As a cabinet decoration material, when you choose PVC as the first choice for kitchen cabinets, you need to understand the performance characteristics of the material.
(1) Advantages of PVC materials for kitchen cabinets:
PVC is one of the materials of choice for modular kitchen cabinets. This is so because:
- Economical: Compared with wooden cabinets, PVC material is cost-effective and cheaper. PVC hollow board is cheaper than PVC foam board. However, the PVC hollow board has insufficient strength and is only suitable for short-term kitchen cabinets.
- Easy to install: PVC materials for kitchen cabinets are available in various colors and ready-to-install boards without any additional fixing. These ready-made boards are lightweight and easy to install in your kitchen. You don't even have to worry about extra laminations or designs to fit them.
- ZERO MAINTENANCE: Considering the material is plastic, PVC cabinets are very easy to clean and will not leave any type of stains. This means that PVCs require little maintenance.
- Termite Resistant: With PVC, you don't have to worry about termites, wood borers, and other insects damaging your cabinets. These materials are termite-free, waterproof, oil-proof, and anti-corrosion. Once installed, the material will remain as is.
- Easy to purchase/replace: PVC material is easy to buy in the market. Therefore, at any given point in time, you can easily replace PVC panels or sheets.
6 . Durable: PVC foam board is stronger and more durable than other PVC variants. Also, the PVC material is corrosion-resistant, so it lasts longer without causing any major damage.
(2) Disadvantages of PVC materials for kitchen cabinets
- Low hardware compatibility: Although PVC boards are easy to install and use, the difficulty lies in their hardware. The screws and hinges used to attach these PVC panels can loosen over time, causing sagging. Therefore, compared to other materials such as plywood or natural wood, the holding power of PVC boards is weak.
- Low fire resistance: The kitchen is where the furniture is exposed to heat, oil, and water. PVC board kitchen cabinets have lower heat resistance and fire resistance. Therefore, great care needs to be taken when adding PVC cabinets in the kitchen.
- Easy to scratch: Given that PVC cabinet are plastic, the material may get scratches or cuts over time, which unfortunately cannot be covered. You need to make sure you don't use any sharp materials directly on the cabinet boards.
