What are Thermofoil Doors?
Thermofoil doors are made from a Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) core which is highly resistant to warping. The surface of the door is a PVC laminate and is more consistent in color than wood hence color matching is more uniform from one door to the other.
Thermofoil Doors have been around for decades are extremely durable, easy to clean and are able to withstand daily abuse. These days they are gaining tremendous popularity due to how closely they resemble wood and their long term durability.
How do I clean and care for Thermofoil Doors
Thermofoil doors can be kept looking like new as long as you use regular dishwashing soap (non-abrasive) and water. Do not use solvent based cleaning material such as lacquer thinners or any product containing acetone, or any abrasive rubbing materials or other harsh cleaners.
Steam kettles should not be boiled directly under the cabinet doors as swelling may occur if moisture seeps into the material.
