The kitchen is often referred to as the heart of the home. It’s a cliche, but one that’s hard to argue with. It’s where we cook, eat, and gather with family and friends; and it’s an area we love to help people remodel or customise. Laminate kitchens are versatile, affordable, and also a sustainable choice for your home that reduces waste and minimises your environmental impact.
Explore some of the reasons below that laminate kitchens are a smart choice:
ECO-FRIENDLY MANUFACTURING
The production of laminate material uses fewer natural resources compared to other materials. Laminate is made by compressing layers of paper or fabric with resins, which is then applied to a material, like particleboard. This process produces fewer emissions than materials like wood, granite, or marble (no mining needed).
RECYCLABLE, REUSABLE
Laminate is a recyclable material, and its scraps can be repurposed to make new products. Laminate kitchens reduce waste and lower the need for raw materials. Also, if you decide to remodel your kitchen in the future, the laminate materials can be removed and reused.
LOW MAINTENANCE
Laminate cabinets and countertops are strong and require minimal maintenance. They’re resistant to stains, scratches, and water damage … perfect for a busy family kitchen. Cabinets and countertops made of laminate can also last for many years.
COST-EFFECTIVE
Laminate kitchens are an affordable option. They’re much cheaper than traditional materials, like wood and marble, making them an accessible choice for many families. Why break the bank to have an ostentatious, expensive kitchen?
By choosing a laminate kitchen, you’ll create a beautiful, functional, and eco-friendly space that you’ll love, celebrate in, and entertain in for years.
