Materials used to make cabinetry and furniture have evolved over the past 45 years.
There is right and wrong information readily available, especially about the "best" material for box construction. The fact is that you have to decide, plywood or furniture board (particle board). Both options are available from most manufacturers. They both have the same warranty. When cared for properly, each will last for decades.
Our manufacturers use glues and wood materials that meet environmental standards that keep your home safe from harmful emissions. This process is Certified by the KCMA which monitors the products and supplies used in the manufacturing of our cabinetry.
Where does the wood for our cabinets come from? The products we carry practice forest management and sustainability as determined by the Forest Stewardship Council. The manufacturer and their suppliers also adhere to the Environmental Stewardship Program, which provides a tangible way of measuring and demonstrating their commitment to protecting the environment.
We also recommend that you resell or donate your old cabinets to complete the chain of sustainability when you execute your new kitchen project.
