How are Laminate Cabinets Constructed?
In high quality cabinets, typically the laminate is secured to the cabinet once the box has been constructed. The cabinet box is typically made of plywood, particle board, or fiberboard. The laminate itself is similar to the material you would find on a laminate countertop though for cabinets it is often thinner. It is created by fusing plastic resin and paper together under pressure and heat.
