Melamine is a low pressure laminate used for production of cabinetry, furniture, flooring, and other fixtures for the home. Melamine is not a plywood, but is usually made up of a pine particle board at the center or "core." The melamine is then applied (like veneer) to the outside of the sheet of particle board.
Melamine allows for about 3 feet of total hanging space, which is more than standard wire racks. Melamine is a common product which is cut at the factory. Most closet companies use Melamine as a staple for their systems.


Multiple layers compose each laminate, deliberately varied to look and even feel like wood. In addition, reproducing the effects of centuries-old hand-working techniques creates timeless vintage appeal.
Laminates don't retain allergens or dust mites and are beneficially hypoallergenic. Laminate can be installed quickly and easily in virtually any situation.
Laminate offers the ultimate in flexibility and durability at an affordable price. Laminate comes in a variety of colors, styles, finishes and levels of quality to match any decor.
Solid wood furniture is stunning and classic. Whether or not you love fashionable or rustic designs, a solid wood piece of furniture will look fantastic for years.
You'll find that the very finest furniture made can be either solid wood OR veneers, or a combination of the two. Solid wood has some advantages; it's strong and can be more easily repaired if it's damaged.
As for veneers, well, the most expensive antiques and even new items are very likely to be veneered. That beautiful figured wood and intricate inlay work on magnificent antique secretaries, armoires and the like, it's veneer.
In woodworking, veneer refers to thin slices of wood, usually thinner than 3 mm (1/8 inch), that are typically glued onto core panels (typically, wood, particle board or medium-density fiberboard) to produce flat panels such as doors, tops and panels for cabinets, parquet floors and parts of furniture.
