Kitchen Cabinets are home essential and the material used must be selected with utmost care. There are fair chances for occasional moisture content through water splashes. Reaction to water, swelling rate, crack probability, borer or termite resistance are all factors to be considered along with the beauty in your minds. Normal wood cracks faster and plywood is the suitable choice for this purpose because it’s made by glueing two wood faces through scientific methods to minimize swelling, cracking and any damage.  
The factors to consider while choosing your plywood:   In plywood, there are several grades such as commercial grade plywood, soft plywood, hard plywood, boiling waterproof plywood and marine grade plywood. The best material for kitchen cabinets is hard marine grade plywood. It will last for a long time. Importantly, it is resistant to wood borers, termites and other pests as well as being water resistant. It will never shrink, crack, warp or twist. Even after 10 years, your kitchen cabinets look good and perform flawlessly.   Know your thickness: The minimum thickness of BWP or marine plywood for larger areas such as doors and sides should be 15 mm, though 19 mm is ideal.   For areas near the sink more prone to water, thicker marine grade plywood laminated or sealed with melamine or similar lacquer must be chosen.10 mm for larger ones and 8 mm for smaller ones, resulting in sleek looks.   Colour tone and aesthetics: Choice of hinges should be the first matching. European style self-closing hinges aid functionality and enhance aesthetics. Once you take care of these basics, you can then focus on the looks, color and appearance of kitchen cabinets. Good brands have a variety of plywood designs or veneers. High grade boiling waterproof or marine grade plywood of appropriate thickness are used to ensure they are able to bear weight, remain structurally rigid, and do not expand or deform, making it difficult to move drawers on the slides. When it comes to slides, choose the self closing slides with ball bearings. The structure of the cabinet box is only one part of the equation—cabinets also need to look attractive. Decorative plywood panels are available in varying face grades “A” through “E”, with the higher the grade translating to less natural variation. Typically a high grade, such as an A, is the most appropriate face for the exterior of the cabinet and cabinet doors.   When designing doorless cabinets or cabinets without a face frame it is important to select a plywood with an appealing finished edge that does not require an edgeband which complicates fabrication, finishing. Curve portions should last well and thus the wood source must be checked to know its endurance history.   Plymarc is the No.1 Plywood brand in India with American E:0 Technology which ensures zero emissions.
