Trends in Cabinets

The tone is calm, the woody feeling is strong, and the integration

From the perspective of cabinet color, the calm and atmospheric black ash and dark coffee will become the popular colors for cabinets this year and next. Meanwhile, monochromatic highlight materials such as white, red, olive green, vanilla, etc. will continue to be popular.

Under the monochrome background, the cabinets with partial wood grain embellishment or natural wood grain will be popular, and the wood grain color will return. Classic style cabinets are mostly made of solid wood, the frame and door panels are hand-carved, plus hand-painted and polished, reflecting the retro style. Modern cabinets are also keeping up with this trend, and cabinets with imitation wood grain will appear in large numbers to visually create a sense of wood warmth.

In addition, the concept of the "whole kitchen" will be further developed, and the cabinets are bound to develop in the direction of equipment and integration. Many enterprises in my country are developing or already producing integrated kitchen equipment, such as integrated equipment for washing dishes and sinks; integrated equipment for range hoods, stoves, and disinfection cabinets (ovens).

Buying skills

1. Look at the edge of the sheet. The edge sealing of high-quality cabinets is delicate, smooth, and feels good, the sealing line is straight and smooth, and the joints are fine. Professional manufacturers use linear edge banding machines to complete edge banding, end breaking, trimming, chamfering, polishing, and other processes at one time to ensure the most accurate size. In the small workshop, the glue is applied with a brush, the edges are manually pressed and sealed, the edges are trimmed with a wallpaper knife, and polished with a manual polishing machine. Due to the uneven pressure, many places are not firm, and it will also cause harmful substances such as formaldehyde to volatilize into the air. middle.

2. Look at the punch. Panel furniture is assembled by three-in-one connectors, and the coordination and precision of the holes will affect the structural firmness of the cabinet box.

3. Look at the cutting board. Panel cutting is the first process in cabinet production. Large-scale specialized enterprises use electronic cutting saws to input the processing size through the computer, and the computer controls the dimensional accuracy of material selection and can process several boards at a time. The performance of the equipment is stable, and the dimensional accuracy of the board is very high.

4. Look at the door panel. The door panel is the face of the cabinet, as important as the face of the person. The door panels produced by small factories are easily deformed by moisture due to improper treatment of the substrate and surface technology.

5. Look at the assembly effect of the whole set of cabinets. Any dimensional error in the production process will be manifested in the door panel. Small factories produce combined cabinets, and the door panel will have uneven door seams and uneven gaps, both large and small.

6. Look at the slides in the drawer. Although it is a small detail, it is an important part that affects the quality of the cabinet. Due to the hole position and size error, there is an error in the installation size of the slide rail, which causes the drawer to be unsmooth or loose from left to right. Pay attention to whether the drawer gap is even.
