Plywood is a good choice for kitchen cabinets because it is more stable in high-humidity environments and resists warping or cracking. It is also made from renewable wood sources and is, therefore, a sustainable material.

• Attractive and modern look
• Available in multiple decor options.
• High water resistance
• Suitable for shipbuilding (MED certified)

Plywood is a good choice for kitchen furniture, such as cabinets and worktops, due to its inherent strength and durability, which are key considerations in a kitchen environment where the furniture is subjected to frequent use and varying conditions.

Layered Construction: Plywood is an engineered wood product made from three or more thin layers of wood veneers, or plies, that are glued together with adjacent layers having their wood grain rotated up to 90 degrees to one another. This cross-graining technique reduces the risk of expansion and shrinkage, giving the plywood stability and reducing the likelihood of warping or cracking, which is essential in the kitchen where temperature and humidity can fluctuate.

Strength: Because of its layered structure, plywood is strong and can bear heavy loads. This makes it suitable for holding countertops, heavy kitchen appliances, or stacks of dishes in upper cabinets without bending or sagging over time.

Resistance to Moisture: While not completely waterproof, certain types of plywood, like marine plywood or those treated with water-resistant glues, are quite resilient against moisture. In a kitchen, exposure to steam and spills is common, and plywood’s ability to withstand this, to some extent, makes it suitable for such an environment.

Versatility in Finishing: Plywood can be finished with a variety of sealants, laminates, or veneers, which not only enhances its appearance but can also provide additional protection from moisture, heat, and scratching. Finishes like laminates or lacquers can further extend the life of plywood kitchen furniture.

Ease of Repair and Maintenance: Should the surface get damaged, it can be sanded down and resealed or refinished, which is a significant advantage over some other materials that when damaged, might need complete replacement.

The cost of a fully bespoke plywood kitchen is influenced by various factors, and understanding these can help in estimating the overall budget for such a project.

Firstly, the size of the kitchen is a primary cost driver. Larger kitchens require more materials and labor, thereby increasing the overall price. If the kitchen has a larger footprint or requires more cabinetry, this will naturally lead to a higher cost.

Secondly, the type of components selected also plays a significant role in pricing. Bespoke kitchens involve custom-made cabinets, drawers, and items that can vary in price. High-end hardware, such as soft-close hinges and custom organizers, will add to the cost.

Similarly, the choice of finishes, like the aforementioned Fenix NTM laminates, Formica, Egger laminates, and additional options such as Corian or Ceramic cladding, also affects the final price.

Premium materials and finishes are more expensive but contribute to the durability and aesthetic of the kitchen.

Thirdly, the complexity of the design influences the cost. A kitchen with simple, straight-line cabinets will be less expensive than one with intricate designs, custom-built islands, or features like integrated appliances, which require more time and skill to construct and install.

Given these variables, bespoke plywood kitchens starting budget is around £15,000. However, most projects oscillate between £25,000 and £50,000. This price range accounts for a moderate to high level of customization and material quality. Very complex projects, which may include luxury finishes and extensive custom work, can exceed this range, reaching higher budgets accordingly.
