Can I use this for my kitchen cabinetry???

Page 1 of 1
Hi guys

Just wondering if anyone knows anything about this product and/or if it could be used for kitchen cabinetry (doors?).

http://www.marblo.com.au/marblo/colour- ... range.html

I've been trying to find something "different" for my kitchen...and had originaly just planned to go with gloss 2pac poly...but i came across this in a magazine, where it was backlit and used as wall panels...and thought it might be worth looking into!


Then again, might just be a stupid idea..
haha..any thoughts would be great!!

Thanks heaps,
Adam
Interesting material.

From a quick perusal of the specifications I don't think you would be able to hang (hinge) it without a frame or substrate.

There are plenty of aluminium extrusions on the market that will do the job of framing it but they will all be visible to some extent.

If you are considering backlighting as part of the look then a frame rather than a substrate would definitely be what is needed - LED edge lighting would be fun to do, but lots of work.

Happy to be proved wrong on this though...

Cheers,

Thanks for the reply Earl!

I'm meeting with a joiner tomorrow who we are probably going to use for all our joinery, so I'll run it by him and see what he thinks!!

I'll let you know anyway - I think it could potentially be a really stunning/unique look...but I guess I'll have to wait and see!

The plan (excuse the pun) ideally is to do just that and take the basic floor plans and elevations that we have bought and have a draftsman replicate them to comply prior…
