Many people ask me this:
Why is your starter package not the cheapest, when it looks almost the same?
I usually just open the cabinet and show them the inside.
Because the real difference is always inside the cabinet, not outside.
Like photo 2 — this is a very common old plywood method used in lower price packages.
They use normal plywood, and the non-visible surfaces are not laminated or finished.
Short term, it looks completely fine.
But over time, problems start to appear:
Raw surface absorbs moisture
Easier to expand and warp
Humid environment → mould risk
Board ages faster internally
Structure becomes weaker
Most of these plywood boards are also:
E1 / E2 grade
Higher glue content
Lower moisture resistance
No termite-resistant structure
Exposed cut edges without protection
And another thing many people notice immediately — strong smell after installation.
Many traditional cabinets, once installed,
you open the door and the smell is very strong.
That smell mainly comes from glue emissions, especially when:
Raw plywood is exposed
No surface laminate
No edge sealing
Cut edges left open
That’s why the smell is heavier and takes longer to disappear.
Now look at photo 1 — this is what we use even for our starter package:
✔ Double-sided board (both sides protected)
✔ Full edge sealing (external applied, fully sealed structure to reduce moisture & odor)
✔ All cut edges completely sealed
This helps:
Reduce moisture pe*******on
Improve durability
Reduce board deformation
Minimize odor release
Cleaner internal finishing
Longer lifespan
So when customers see our cabinets installed,
most of the time they will notice — almost no smell, even when opening the doors.
Photo 3 shows another common traditional method:
Back panel jointed
Screws assembly
Multiple holes structure
Over time, these may loosen and shift.
We use:
✔ Hole-free system
✔ Hidden connectors
✔ More stable structure
✔ Better long-term durability
So yes — we are not the cheapest in the market.
Because from the start, we don’t use:
✘ Raw plywood internal surface
✘ Non-laminated hidden areas
✘ Non-sealed edges
✘ Traditional screw assembly
✘ Low moisture grade boards
But I always tell customers this:
We may not be the lowest price,
but once you properly compare materials, structure, and finishing,
we usually become the best value option.
Because cabinets are not used for 6 months —
you use them every day for years.
