The wood grain kitchen design creates an indescribable atmosphere of warmth and comfort in the house. The design of the kitchen, layout, materials for finishing must be thought out in advance, before starting the repair.

Wood was and remains one of the warmest, environmentally friendly and beautiful finishing materials. But, despite all its advantages, the array does not tolerate adverse influences, such as temperature changes, high humidity, greasy dirt, chemical cleaning agents. An important factor is the high cost of natural wood.

Thanks to the development of technologies, materials have been developed that are based on wood, as well as plastic and film coatings that imitate the structure and color of wood. They withstand the adverse effects of the above factors, and their price is quite affordable.

Design options

Use of materials imitating wood

Arrangement of wood-like interior can be carried out using imitating materials for cladding walls, floors or in the manufacture of furniture. Pressed wood fiber wall panels are available on the market.

They are very beautiful, moisture resistant and diverse. You can choose options that mimic the shades and texture of various tree species.

Note! Installation instructions for cladding panels are included with the packaging. Be sure to study it and follow the recommendations given there.

Some of the closest textures to wood are fibreboards or MDF, which processed by dry pressing, and the gluing of the fibers is carried out at a high temperature and intense pressure.

Use of fibreboard

The advantages of such plates include:

• high environmental friendliness;
• low resin content;
• strength;
• high density;
• lack of formaldehyde release;
• do not crumble during processing;
• hold fasteners and screws well.

The cost of fibreboard is higher than that of chipboard, but lower than that of solid wood. MDF boards can be used for wall decoration or decorative elements in the interior, but more often furniture is made from them (see also the article on wall decoration in the kitchen with MDF panels).

Beautiful and original kitchen made of MDF

Thanks to a high-tech production process, chipboards fully reproduce the structure of the most popular types of wood, such as:

• ash;
• oak;
• beech;
• nut;
• alder, etc.

Kitchen furniture made of high quality MDF, which completely imitates the individual pattern and complex shade of valuable wood species, it is almost impossible to distinguish from headsets from array.

MDF perfectly conveys the structure of the following popular wood collections:

• bleached or natural oak;
• warm pine;
• knotty cherry;
• soft light ash;
• noble dark walnut;
• aged cracked wood.

The advantage of MDF wood grain kitchens is:

1. Resistant to moisture and temperature extremes. Such fronts are not afraid of steam and fat, which are inevitable in the kitchen. Surfaces made of MDF will not swell from accidentally spilled water, will not warp or delaminate.

1. High biostability of the material. MDF boards are not susceptible to infection by fungi, mold and microorganisms, so your kitchen will always be clean and safe.

1. Kitchen sets made of MDF boards are very hygienic, non-flammable, practical and durable.

Laminated MDF

• To reduce the cost, MDF facades are laminated with PVC film with a wood pattern. This option has several disadvantages, the main one being fragility. In the event of temperature changes or moisture penetration, the film may begin to peel off.

Most often, this problem occurs with countertops located next to the stove or oven. It's also important to choose your cleaning products carefully. Kitchen facades coated with PVC film, should be cleaned with a porous sponge or cloth with mild detergents without the presence of abrasives. Do not use metal brushes.

• Wood-like plastic kitchens imply the use of MDF or chipboard facades covered with plastic, which conveys this color and texture. The production method of such facades is called postforming. This is another budget option that you can use to create a wood-like kitchen. The advantage of this method is the ability to make headsets of any shape and size, use bends and rounds.

Facades made of MDF, covered with plastic with wood texture

The disadvantages of plastic kitchens include the fragility of the coating. In order for such a headset to serve for a long time, it must be treated with care.

The plastic surface, as well as the film, must be washed without the use of aggressive agents. So that the plastic does not peel off over time, you need to monitor the optimal temperature and humidity in the room, for this you need a good hood.

• Interesting wood-like kitchen models are obtained using frame facades. Their base is made of MDF profiles. The wood fiber backing frame is covered with natural veneer.

A wide variety of materials can be used for the interior. The main thing here is your preferences. It can be glass or plexiglass, rattan, mirror, laminated particle board, etc. As a result, you will get an original, stylish and inexpensive kitchen.

Note! The problem area for frame facades is the attachment points. Care must be taken that they are protected from high temperatures and moisture. And you need to wash them carefully.

Wood effect flooring

Not only walls and headsets can be decorated under a tree, but also flooring. It could be laminate for kitchen, tiles with a wood texture or linoleum.

It is quite possible to lay any of these coatings, maybe with the exception of tiles, with your own hands.

Floor ceramic tiles for parquet

Wood imitation tile or porcelain stoneware is a very popular floor covering that meets all the requirements for a kitchen. It is an environmentally friendly, fire and moisture resistant coating that is resistant to high temperatures and chemical cleaning agents.

In appearance, such a floor practically does not differ from a wooden one. It will perfectly fit into the kitchen interior, decorated in any style, be it high-tech, strict classics, cozy Country or Eclectic.
