How to choose material
Undoubtedly, in any apartment there is a place for a wardrobe. Even if its area is very small. The main thing is to choose the right sizes. But do not forget about the material from which this piece of furniture will be made. Cabinets are made from MDF, chipboard, plastic, wood.

Cabinets made from this material are constructed from chipboard made from natural raw materials.
The slabs differ from each other in composition, size, quality, thickness and safety class. This variety allows you to choose the right option for any wardrobe. That is why furniture is most often made from it.
Moreover, the lightweight but durable material lends itself well to processing and copes well with loads, installation of fittings and fasteners. This is a high-quality and safe raw material for furniture in any style.
MDF
Compared to chipboard, such material is much more expensive. It is practical, safe, high quality, pleasant in appearance, and moisture resistant.
Particle board lends itself well to painting; for this reason, the color range of the material is quite wide.
MDF is one of the favorite materials of designers, as it allows you to use straight, broken, curved, rounded and smooth lines in the interior.
laminated chipboard
Compared to chipboard, this material is much more diverse in terms of external design. Laminated or laminated surfaces made of paper-resin film also differ in quality.
Laminating involves gluing a film to the surface of a chipboard. This processing method is unreliable; after some time, the film may peel off, wear off or peel off.
Lamination is much stronger and more durable when the coated board is soldered at high temperature. Then the laminated chipboard becomes durable and strong, protected from external damage, moisture-resistant and protected from overheating.
With the help of laminate you can turn almost any fantasy and idea into reality. Also design a wardrobe for the bedroom according to an individual design project.
