Kitchen cabinets are cupboards built into a kitchen to store dishes efficiently and save up space while countertops are horizontal surfaces most often installed on kitchen cabinets used for food preparation.

There are different materials used for the manufacturing of kitchen cabinets. Doors made out of thermoplastics, wood, 5-piece polyester, and melamine among others, are used in the installation of kitchen cabinets. Whereas a countertop made of laminate, quartz, granite, marble, and other solid surfaces are placed on top of these cabinets.
Thermoplastic or therm of oil doors are manufactured using fibreboards ofa medium-density covered in heat-fused vinyl or laminate. Thermoplastic doors are low-maintenance as the vinyl or laminate does not catch dirt and is easy to clean. Thermoplastic doors are akin to wooden doors in terms of durability but are also budget-friendly. These doors are moisture resistant but not heat resistant, which makes them unsuitableto be installed next to a stove or a dishwasher unless there is a heat shield between the cabinets.
5-piece polyester doors compose of 4 pieces, also called Stiles and Rails forming the framework and the centre of the door has a large panel. These doors are exactly similar to wooden doors in look and have lower costs. These doors are typically made of a composite of compressed pine fibers, melamine, and polyester. 5-piece polyester doors are more durable than regular melamine.
Melamine is a compressed wood particle core covered with a resin or paper finish. Melamine doors, usually, are more durable and resistant to moisture, heat, and stains, due to its tough outer coating. Melamine doors are made in a controlled atmosphere, which results in a consistent finish unlike wood.
Even with the emergence of newer materials in kitchen cabinets, no material has been able to match the appearance, durability, and variety of wood. Wooden doors for kitchen cabinets still remain popular as wooden doors are eco-friendly. Doors made from materials consist of substances such as glue, wax and resins, which may emit undesirable chemicals such as formaldehyde, resulting in poor indoor air quality. Solid wood is a much cleaner option for positive environmental impact.
Laminate countertop facilitates high affordability but has very low durability as it can get easily damaged. Quartz Countertop provides durability and also hasa non-porous feature, which makes it difficult for bacteria to grow. One of the most preferred countertop for kitchen installation is granite. Similar to quartz, granite is resilient to high temperatures and is difficult to get scratches. Marble countertop offers a premium look to the kitchen. They are also heat resistant and are very strong, making them highly durable. However, marble tops are porous, soft, and expensive, as compared to other materials.
