Hi All, anyone does experience in installing kitchen cabinet for his/her new home?

These days I have met a few kitchen cabinet makers and getting a bit confuse about the materials they are using for my cabinet's door.

Common and economical material being used is ABS melamine board type.

However, there are some makers called this as Chipboard as well.


They claimed ABS melamine actually is Chipboard which I am not sure whether it is correct.

My understanding is that Chip Board is a kind of compressed of fibre wood materials that is even worse than Melamine board.

Anyone know the differences between these 2 materials?

Thanks.

Hi Erny,

Are you sisblings of Patric Looi, the contractor you mentioned to me?

Didn't expect this thread still alive, Patrick's business must be damn good...
