Low Maintenance Materials for Health + Wellness

With more families staying home and spending more hours together, homeowners have a little more time to think about remodeling. Whether it be a full kitchen makeover, or crossing off a few items on the wish list, there are ways to incorporate cabinet materials and options for easy maintenance and safety in mind.

Flat panel cabinet doors have been the trend for a couple of years and will continue for its simplicity and timeless aesthetics. It’s one of the easiest options to match around countertops, appliances and fixtures, while keeping it relevant for years to come. There are also many material options to consider.

Textured melamine is easy to clean, with plain water or a non-abrasive cleaner, is stain resistant and scratch resistant under normal use. Ultra-Matte is another excellent option for very low maintenance, heat and scratch resistant under normal use, resists fingerprints, and can also be cleaned with just plain water. No chemicals or harsh cleaners are needed.

But options don’t stop at cabinet materials. Homeowners can request mechanical cabinet hardware systems that can open cabinet drawers with the touch of a knee or elbow, keeping dirty hands off cabinets and minimizing cleaning of cabinet pulls or knobs.
