Crafted via a proprietary color infusion process, this high-density PVC foam board (density 0.65–0.85g/cm³) features uniform color penetration throughout the core, ensuring scratches or cuts don’t reveal unsightly underlayers. Available in thicknesses from 2mm to 30mm and 20+ standard colors (including matte white, charcoal gray, and ocean blue), it offers unparalleled design flexibility for both residential and commercial cabinetry. Certified by FDA (food-contact safe) and CE (EN 13501-1 B-s1, d0) for fire safety, it emits <0.01mg/m³ formaldehyde—far below EU limits—making it ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, and healthcare facilities. Its closed-cell structure achieves water absorption <0.2%, outperforming MDF (which swells in humid conditions) and solid wood (prone to warping).
Through-Color Technology for Long-Lasting Beauty
Unlike surface-painted boards, color permeates the entire foam core—so minor scratches (up to 0.5mm deep) remain virtually invisible. The pigmentation resists UV fading (ΔE <1.0 after 5,000 hours of sunlight) and chemical discoloration from cleaners (bleach, ammonia) per ASTM D1308 testing. Custom color matching to Pantone codes is available for brand-specific projects.
Structural Strength for Heavy-Duty Use
Designed to support 40kg/m² static loads (EN 12871 testing), it suits cabinet doors, shelves, and drawer fronts. The foam core, reinforced with 3% glass fiber additives, achieves an Izod impact strength of 15kJ/m²—withstanding drops of 1kg objects from 1m height without cracking. Thicker boards (18–30mm) provide sufficient rigidity for countertop supports without additional bracing.
Workability & Compatibility with Standard Hardware
Easily cut, drilled, and routed with standard woodworking tools—no special equipment required. Its dense outer layer (1mm thick) securely holds screws (#6–#10) and hinges (including soft-close types) without splitting, even after 5+ reinstallations. Compatible with all cabinet fittings: drawer slides, magnetic catches, and shelf supports.
Residential Cabinetry
Ideal for kitchen cabinets (base and wall units), bathroom vanities, and closet systems. Popular colors include warm beige (traditional kitchens) and cool gray (modern bathrooms). The moisture resistance prevents mold in under-sink cabinets, while the non-toxic composition ensures safe storage for food and cosmetics.
Commercial Fit-Outs
Used in hotel rooms (mini-bar cabinets), restaurants (kitchen storage), and healthcare clinics (medical supply cabinets). The color stability withstands frequent cleaning with commercial disinfectants, while custom hues match brand identities (e.g., hotel chain colors).
Retail Display Cabinets
Creates eye-catching product shelving in cosmetics stores (gloss finishes), bookstores (wood-tone colors), and electronics shops (matte black). The 2–6mm thin boards work well for backlit display panels, enhancing product visibility.
Q: What thickness is best for cabinet doors?
A: 12–18mm balances weight and rigidity: 12mm for small doors (<60cm width) and 18mm for larger doors (>60cm width) to prevent sagging. For heavy-duty use (e.g., garage cabinets), 25–30mm is recommended.
Q: Can it be thermoformed into curved shapes?
A: Yes, at 130–150°C, it can be bent into radii as small as 10cm without color distortion—enabling arched cabinet tops or rounded drawer fronts.
Q: How does it compare to painted MDF in cost over time?
A: While initial cost is 15% higher, it eliminates repainting costs (every 3–5 years for MDF) and reduces replacement frequency—saving 40% over a 10-year lifespan.
Q: Is it resistant to heat from appliances?
A: It withstands continuous temperatures up to 60°C (e.g., near dishwashers). For stove proximity (>80°C), a heat shield is recommended to prevent minor surface softening.
