Wet zones: solid compact only
Next to a pool, in a sauna or by the showers, humidity is constant. Decor chipboard has a wood core that swells with prolonged moisture, first at the edges and around the hinges. That is why the AQUA line is made entirely of solid compact laminate: 9 mm carcass, 12 mm doors, 4 mm back. There is no wood core, so water has nowhere to soak in.
Dry zones: decor chipboard
In a gym changing room without showers, humidity is occasional. There, 18 mm chipboard with a Kaindl decor works well: the warm look of wood or stone, a wide choice of decors and a lower price. That is the TERRA line. For representative spaces, hotel spas and boutique clubs there is SIGNA with LED lighting.
How to decide
- Pool, sauna, showers or water on the floor: AQUA (compact).
- Gym changing room, showers in a separate room: TERRA.
- Hotel, spa or club where the changing room is part of the experience: SIGNA.
- If in doubt, go one level more resistant. Replacing swollen lockers costs more than the difference in material.
Interior
With chipboard, the interior is white as standard, while the visible end panels of each run are always in the door decor. With Kaindl decors you can also order the interior in the front decor.
