Lacquered MDF fronts. Matt or gloss?

Lacquered MDF offers a great deal of freedom in shaping the character of a kitchen — from calm matt minimalism to brighter high-gloss surfaces. The right choice depends on the interior, the light and everyday use.

Lacquered MDF offers a great deal of freedom in shaping the character of a kitchen — from calm matt minimalism to brighter high-gloss surfaces. The right choice depends on the interior, the light and everyday use.

A wide range of colour options

Lacquered MDF can be finished in many colours, making it easy to coordinate cabinetry with stone, timber, walls and metal details.

Matt for a calmer contemporary look

Matt fronts work especially well with natural materials and refined, architectural compositions. They reflect less light and create a more uniform visual surface.

Gloss for light and visual impact

Gloss fronts react strongly to daylight and surrounding reflections. In bright interiors they can make the kitchen feel lighter and more spacious.

How to choose

There is no universal answer. The best approach is to compare front samples with the planned worktop, timber decor and lighting before the final decision.
