Cabinetry materials like laminate, melamine, MDF, 2Pac painted, Vinyl wraps, and natural timber all offer different strengths, price points, and styles. For a tight budget, melamine and laminate work well—both are durable and come in a wide colour range. MDF with a 2-pack painted finish suits mid-range budgets where smooth, tailored results matter. Timber veneer or solid timber is top-end—impressive in looks and longevity. Popular colours in Melbourne remain white, warm neutrals, deep greens, charcoals, and natural timber tones.
