Aluminum profile for kitchen facades: pros, cons and 2 installation options

Modern facades from aluminum profile have been at the peak of popularity for at least 30 years and, as far as can be predicted, do not intend to lose their position. Let's figure out together what the secret of popularity is of this material and how to choose it correctly. And for practitioners, I have prepared 2 installation options aluminum edging with your own hands.

Pros and cons of the material

Let's be clear right away: a profile is only part of the facade, roughly speaking, the edging of any facade panel. The panels themselves can be made of natural wood, MDF, chipboard, plastic or glass.

The advantages of such furniture fittings include:

Aluminum has the useful property of visually making the structure airy, plus it itself is quite lightweight;
If we compare the durability of aluminum with MDF, plastic or chipboard, then the metal lasts at least twice as long;
WITH practical point point of view, any aluminum profile can be adjusted and installed quite quickly, we will dwell on this point a little later;
Metal is not afraid of temperature, moisture, or ultraviolet radiation, which is why the lion's share of backsplash panels in the kitchen are finished with aluminum;
Matte metal surface The edging does not catch the eye and at the same time gives the headset a certain solidity.

Now let's go over the disadvantages:

The price for this profile is above average. Only chrome steel and natural wood elite breeds;
Aluminum finish is more suitable for modern design like hi-tech or minimalism. On Baroque or Provence style sets this metal will look ridiculous;
Aluminum is a soft metal, so it is very easy to scratch it;
Again, due to its softness, aluminum can only be washed with gentle means; there can be no talk of any abrasive compounds.

In a small kitchen, a massive edging will spoil the interior and make the room even smaller, so here it is better to give preference to thin, inconspicuous profiles or smooth, rounded shapes;
The profile is only part of the structure; in addition to it, there are also fastening and connecting fittings. So it’s better not to skimp on it, especially when we're talking about O drawers and doors;
If the filler is chipboard panels, then it is better to take models that completely cover the end, and extend onto the panel itself. The fact is that if there is even the slightest possibility of water penetrating to the ends, then kitchen chipboard It will begin to delaminate within a couple of years.

Two ways to install the profile

In principle, both the first and second instructions are not particularly complex. The main difference between them is the correct selection of profile configuration.

Choosing a configuration

Illustrations	Recommendations
	Overlay option. Used for thick facade panels and is intended only to protect from moisture and decorate the end.
	Profile handle for kitchen. Practical and beautiful design, with it you will not need to separately mount handles on the façade. The photo on the left shows only one of the models; in reality, there are dozens of them.
	Basic structure. Here we are dealing with a full-fledged frame into which hinges can be inserted. As a rule, load-bearing aluminum frames are used in conjunction with glass filler.

Option No. 1: installation of overhead profiles

Illustrations	Recommendations
	Marking and trimming. Here we are dealing with a model that has a connecting corner fitting, so the strip is cut to fit the slab. If such fittings are not provided, then an allowance is made on both sides of the plank for the thickness of the plank. This reserve will then allow you to cut the joint at an angle.
	Fastening with self-tapping screws. Everything is simple here, you apply the bar to the end and screw it with self-tapping screws or nail it.
	Models with groove. There are profile models that are equipped with a kind of spike in the center. For such models, a sample will have to be made at the end of the load-bearing slab. There is an end mill for these purposes, but my advice to you is that it is better to order this work from a workshop. It will cost a pittance, but people will do it smoothly and beautifully.
	Masking the screws. Where the edging is attached with screws or nails, it is usually provided decorative overlay, it is either glued or simply inserted into the grooves.
	Corner fittings. Such corners are simply inserted into special grooves. The algorithm is as follows: Attach one strip; Insert a corner into it; String an adjacent plank onto the corner; And only after that do you screw on the adjacent plank.
	Crimping. After assembly and before finally fixing the decorative molding, it is advisable to crimp the edging. To do this, take a hammer and tap the perimeter through some gasket.

Option No. 2: load-bearing frame

It is not difficult to assemble the supporting frame, but unlike the previous version, it requires a special tool. If many people have a screwdriver and a drill, then Miter saw With turntable and the router on the bed is already closer to a semi-professional tool.

Illustrations	Recommendations
	Profiles. First, we buy the profiles themselves. All such fittings have grooves for installing filler (in our case, glass).
	Pruning. Such fittings are cut at 45º, for this we need a trimming machine with a rotary table. Theoretically, you can mark with a ruler and a protractor or using a miter box, and then cut with a hacksaw. But from experience, this method is impossible to cut and join all 4 corners without gaps.
	Holes for corners. Such holes can be drilled with a regular screwdriver, the main thing is to mark them accurately. In such cases, I simply attach the connecting corner to the profile and mark it.
	Holes for hinges. Standard four-hinged furniture hinges fit into such fittings. The distance from the edge of the door to the hinge ranges from 70 to 120 mm. The hole is cut using a router.

It’s worth taking a closer look at what kind of kitchen this is made of fashionable plastic in an aluminum frame, what it’s made of and what the characteristics of such a set are.

Kitchen fronts made of plastic in an aluminum frame are an option modern kitchen, adhering to the Art Nouveau or high-tech style. The aluminum profile makes the structure more durable. She is not afraid of the vagaries of humidity and temperature, or mechanical influences.

And if the profile and its qualities are few in doubt, then there is a lot of debate about plastic. Even if the seller says it is reliable kitchen, comfortable, easy to clean, the buyer still has doubts.

Kitchens made of plastic are:

Easy to care for. Some special means no need - just wipe the surface with a dry or damp cloth, and everything is clean.
Plastic paints well. Therefore, choosing a kitchen color is difficult only in the sense that your eyes run wide from the abundance of shades.
Practicality. A remarkable fact is that the kitchen does not scratch; in places where moisture accumulates, the plastic does not delaminate (unlike wood).
High quality. Modern plastic is very reliable material, it is not afraid of mechanical stress and fire.
Price attractiveness. Simple model kitchens made of solid wood will be more expensive than even the most equipped ones plastic kitchen with excellent fittings.

But, of course, you will have to point out the disadvantages of such kitchens.

Disadvantages of a plastic kitchen

There are very few disadvantages, but for many they are significant. One of the disadvantages is the annoying color. Today, most models of plastic kitchens are made in very bright colors. These are quite rich tones that you like right away, but looking at them every day can get boring. Another drawback is that the facades of such a kitchen cannot have patterns. Film or painted MDF is more profitable in this regard.

It should be noted that the lack of ornamentation on the glossy plastic of the facade is not a problem today. You can always find a variety of stickers for every taste on sale that will help significantly transform boring facades.

Actually, the obvious disadvantages end there. Although, based on reviews, one can also judge such a drawback as the quick contamination of glossy plastic facades with fingerprints.

Aluminum profile for kitchen facades

The aluminum frame in such structures plays the role of a frame. And the frame and profile, as you know, have a close relationship. The profile is specially processed so that the frame has a matte, pleasant shade.

At kitchen facades with such a frame appearance it immediately becomes laconic, elegant, strictly defined.

And also aluminum profile:

May have a metallic tint;
Colored frame designs are often offered;
A frame in the color of gilding, champagne, or matte chrome can make your kitchen look noble.

The shape and size of the frame may also differ. The profile cross-section can be, for example, with rounded edges. It can be both narrow and wide. The structure of the frame is flexible, which allows the most in an interesting way decorate the facades.

Kitchens made of plastic in an aluminum frame – reviews

Mostly, the reviews are positive. This is due to the fact that strength, accuracy and modern look such kitchens meet the buyer's expectations.

If you make a cross-section of reviews, separately highlighting the most repeated positive comments, you will get a considerable list.

Positive points from the reviews:

This kitchen is not afraid of moisture. People usually compare with wooden kitchen with various inclusions, where the material quickly began to crack in places increased influence moisture. This immediately makes the appearance of the kitchen unattractive. Plastic and aluminum frames are not afraid of moisture or fire.
You don't have to worry about scratches either.. Such kitchens are highly resistant to scratches; it can only be done by pressing hard. That is, in appearance such a kitchen will retain its original appearance for a very long time.
The kitchen does not need additional decor. The plastic kitchen set itself is bright and self-sufficient, so there is no point in decorating it in any special way. Even dinner Zone may be more faded compared to the headset, which is not at all a mistake. This circumstance will help you save on decorative items.

The disadvantages are, of course, also indicated in the reviews. One of the often cited disadvantages is that over time the aluminum frame begins to tarnish. However, it is worth mentioning that this is often caused by the owner’s improper care of the furniture. If you use aggressive cleaning agents and abrasive powders, the facades and frames are more likely to fade prematurely.

Type of plastic facades

A plastic facade is an ordinary panel, which is covered with a small (from two to four millimeters) layer of plastic. Plastic not only plays the role of decorator, but also serves as a coating that reduces the wear life of the panel.

To make a plastic facade, MDF or chipboard is used. MDF is considered more quality material, because it’s easier to process.

The panels are covered with a certain type of plastic, which comes in two types:

Sheet plastic (HPL). Dense, resistant to external influences.
Rolled plastic (CPL). Look like PVC film, only surpasses it in density.

Plastic is applied to the surface using high temperature and pressure. These actions allow the plastic to literally press into the panel.

Each edge of the facade is covered with aluminum film, due to which the panel becomes more protected from damage.

Kitchen design made of plastic in an aluminum frame: colors and patterns

Very important point is the choice of color for the future kitchen. Chromatic and achromatic interiors are fashionable, although quite conservative.

Achromatic kitchen interior is a kitchen made in only white, only black or only gray color. Of course, these don't happen very often.

The chromatic interior offers a more interesting design for a plastic kitchen. It includes not just one color, but a combination of shades. That is, you take the main color as a basis, and complement it either with variations of shades of this main color, or with corresponding colors from the color wheel.

The designers have developed four color schemes:

Monochrome;
Triadic;
Adjacent (analog);
Contrasting.

Working with such schemes is easy; they allow you to avoid making mistakes in choosing color combinations.

A plastic kitchen is often designed according to the laws of an adjacent color scheme.

Adjacent color scheme in kitchen design

The main principle is the closest proximity of two or three colors. Select your favorite main color from the color wheel. Its two neighbors on the right and left will be used as accents.

Why is it so important to use a diagram? Well, for example, it seems logical to you to combine citrus fruits in the interior - you take a lemon shade and a bright orange color. But two active shades cannot look harmoniously together - such a kitchen will be too bright, and this brightness literally hurts the eye.

Looking at the color scheme, you walk strictly in a circle and understand that you will end up exactly in harmonious combination colors.

When choosing a kitchen with an aluminum frame, be picky about the color and texture of the facade. Don't take it deliberately bright colors, if you don’t want to associate the kitchen with a place of activity and energy accumulation. And, of course, check the manufacturer’s reputation and ask for certificates for materials.

Review of a plastic kitchen in an aluminum frame (video)

Kitchen made of plastic in an aluminum frame (photo gallery)

The ideal façade for kitchen set must be durable, easy to clean, hygienic, safe and, preferably, beautiful. And for all its advantages, it’s inexpensive.

Finding such an option is difficult, but possible. Optimal choice can become kitchen facades in aluminum frames. Profiles provide additional strength and various options frame fillings allow you to choose suitable facade for any interior style - from to.

What you need to know about aluminum frame kitchen fronts

Aluminum - relatively inexpensive material, hygienic, strong and durable. It is often used where sterility is needed - the surface has antibacterial properties. That is why kitchens with aluminum profile facades are very popular.

The frame can be of any shape - sometimes it is an almost invisible thin border, sometimes it is a wide molding. In the latter case, the aluminum frame also performs a decorative function.

Aluminum frames for facades have a wide list of advantages:

Due to the light weight of aluminum, such doors are much more stable than those with wood or steel frames. In addition, since fittings and fasteners require less weight, aluminum facades are more wear-resistant.
Aluminum is the most hygienic material, which is very important for use in the kitchen.
The frame is resistant to water and mechanical damage: does not rust or scratch.
The edges of the facades are reliably protected from mechanical damage and chips - the most common damage to unedged surfaces.
The plastic film does not peel off or bubble, as the frame prevents moisture and grease from entering.

A wide variety of materials can be used as the basis for such facades: chipboard or MDF, glass, MFD panels with plastic film. Choose a base depending on your preferences and what you want.

Idea: Look good combined options. For example, lower cabinets with a plastic facade in an aluminum profile and upper cabinets with a glass base.

Advantages of a plastic kitchen in an aluminum frame

And yet, plastic remains the most popular material for facades with aluminum profiles. We have already written in more detail about such facades.

Now let's briefly look at its main advantages:

Very wide range of colors. Bright and pastel shades, imitation wood or stone, various patterns and prints. It is easy to choose a façade to suit any interior style.
Moisture resistance.
High strength - plastic is quite resistant to mechanical damage.
Easy to install.

However, it must be remembered that high-quality plastic facades with aluminum frames cannot be cheap.

Reviews

Most reviews on the Internet note the ease of care of such facades and their durability. However, there are also negative impressions. So, the girl complained that for the first six months she cut her hands on the frame - due to careless processing, sharp edges remained.

This is possible if the furniture was assembled by unprofessional craftsmen or low-quality materials were used. Therefore, before ordering a kitchen with aluminum frames, research the seller - his reputation and reviews are important.

Kitchen facades in aluminum frames (real photo examples)

One of the weak points kitchen furniture– protective edge at the ends of the facades. Due to mechanical friction, high humidity, temperature changes, and simply active use in these areas, the layer of protective materials often becomes thinner or peels off, which cannot but affect the service life and appearance of the headset. When choosing a kitchen with aluminum framed fronts, you can forget about these troubles. Let's consider the features of these structures from a practical and aesthetic point of view.

For the manufacture of frame facades, various types of aluminum profiles are used: flat or convex, thin or wide, rectangular or round, single or multi-level. Regardless of the chosen design, metal edging significantly increases the service life of furniture in conditions of high humidity.

Metal edge reliably protects the ends from damage

Facades with wide and thin profiles

Advantages of frame facades:

They impart rigidity to the structure, thanks to which the doors of cabinets and cabinets do not lose their original shape.
The tight fit to the base material reliably protects the facades from the penetration of fungus and mechanical damage.
A wide variety of design and color solutions allows you to choose furniture to suit any modern interior.
Increases the wear resistance of even such impractical coatings as PVC (since the edge of the film will be covered with a profile, it will not peel off when in contact with water).
You can choose any material for making the base of the facade.
Aluminum is highly hygienic - bacteria do not multiply on the surface of the metal.
It is possible to create interesting combinations through the use of different textures and colors - the frame becomes an element that will unite the composition into one.

Combined cabinets made of plastic and glass

One of the disadvantages is the relatively high cost of metal edgings, because the manufacture of such facades requires precise adjustment of the base material to the profile cross-section, and high-quality aluminum is not cheap. Sometimes consumers also complain about sharp joints formed at corner joints. To avoid accidental injury, you can use rounded frames.

Another important drawback of frame facades is the monotonous appearance of the aluminum profile. Not everyone likes the metallic color, and painting it is problematic. Furniture manufacturers offer color versions, as well as silver, gold or chrome plating, but one should take into account the low adhesion of the aluminum surface, from which even the highest quality powder paint wears off over time. Also under the influence of aggressive detergents and abrasives, the metal may darken or become covered with small scratches.

Important! There are other types of frames for edging facades, for example, solid. But aluminum has much less weight and does not create additional load on fittings and connections. Yes, and water resistance metal profile much higher than that of the strongest wood.

Materials for frame facades

The appearance of the kitchen set is selected according to the interior style, room size and allocated budget. But the service life and design of the facades also depend on what kind of material is covered with the profile frame, so let’s take a closer look at the most popular proposals from the furniture industry’s arsenal.

Budget chipboards

Chipboard facades for a kitchen in an aluminum frame - an option for an inexpensive but practical renovation. Woody particle boards are made from wood chips and sawdust, compressed using thermosetting resins. Thanks to a wide range of coatings, furniture can be painted in any color or imitate more expensive materials - wood, metal, stone.

Wood-look laminated chipboard kitchen

Disadvantages of chipboard facades:

Availability internal voids is reflected in the quality of the fasteners - such a kitchen is not suitable for reassembly, and even the original one may have problems with the installation of fittings.
Most short term service compared to other materials.
A predominantly flat surface - the slabs are difficult to cut with the help of milling machines. Overhead elements, such as moldings, can be used as decorations. You can decorate chipboard facades with your own hands:

Metal edging allows you to partially solve the two most big problems particle boards - instability to moisture and evaporation of harmful formaldehyde and phenolic resins when peeling off a damaged or poorly applied edge.

On a note! If the facades are made of moisture-resistant chipboard, they will last longer even if the protective layer is damaged.

MDF is the golden mean between economy and naturalness

If the environmental friendliness of materials is important to you, but you can’t afford expensive solid wood, pay attention to furniture made from wood-fiber MDF boards. Sawdust is used as a raw material, as in the case of chipboard, but it is of a finer fraction and does not contain foreign inclusions: hard chips, roots or pine needles.

Advantages of MDF facades:

Variety of relief - thanks to the smooth surface and dense structure, the slabs are easy to process. Facades can be given complex concave or rounded shapes, lighting can be built in, hidden handles and other fittings can be installed.
Environmentally friendly - MDF production does not use resins that evaporate formaldehyde and phenol - natural substances that the tree itself releases when heated are used to bind the wood fiber mass.
Wide selection of materials for outer covering for any interior style and color scheme - enamels, films, plastic, natural and artificial veneer.

There are not many disadvantages of MDF. The main one is poor moisture tolerance, like everyone else wooden materials. But we decide correct selection coating that the frame contour will reliably keep from delamination. In addition, it is important to take into account that the price of MDF facades is at least 1.5 times higher compared to their chipboard counterpart.

The cost of MDF facades with an aluminum outline is also affected by the choice of shape (curly ones will be 25-30 percent more expensive). For difficult artistic milling You will also have to pay at least 20% of the original price of the product. But you shouldn’t overpay for expensive foreign-made waterproof boards - just choose a durable coating and properly care for it.

On a note! A more natural material for facades is considered to be solid wood (or furniture board). Wooden surfaces look expensive and impressive, but aluminum profiles are rarely used for their frame edging - solid wood significantly makes the structure heavier, and will cost at least 2 times more than high-quality MDF. Thanks to widest choice Decorative kitchen coverings made from wood fiber boards perfectly imitate the color and structure of natural wood.

Veneered MDF with milling

Spectacular glass with various types of decor

Glass surfaces give a light and stylish look to the kitchen interior, and the metal frame edging increases the strength of the material and reduces the risk of accidental breakage. But still optimal solution there will be a combination of glass facades with MDF or chipboard, especially for the lower cabinets of the set. However, a lot depends on the quality of the glass itself.

Glass facades are often used in combination with MDF

But you can choose a kitchen where glass will be the main material

For the manufacture of frame facades the following is used:

Float glass is a standard “window” option for budget kitchens. The material can be transparent or tinted, but it is not subjected to any additional treatments that increase its strength characteristics. Accordingly, such a facade, even with a frame edging, is not difficult to break, and if damaged, sharp chips are formed, which are easy to injure.

Colored glass – on inner surface In the usual “float” film, a film is applied, thanks to which you can experiment with colors and images on the facades. In addition, if such glass is broken, most of the fragments will remain on the film. But there are colored facades that are painted at the glass production stage - their appearance is more advantageous, the possibility of peeling off the decor is excluded, but they break with the same ease and with the same degree of injury as standard “float”. Colored glass can be frosted, glossy and with varying degrees of transparency:

Tempered glass - heat treatment at a temperature of 600-680°C increases the strength qualities of facades by 3-4 times. This material is considered the optimal solution for a safe kitchen - after all, even if damaged, the glass will either simply crack or crumble into small cubes with non-sharp edges.

Tempered glass is much safer than standard glass

Triplex is the most durable glass material for furniture facades. The design consists of two layers of glass, between which a reinforcing polyvinyl butyral film is laid. This material can withstand impacts well, but even if damaged, the film will prevent fragments from scattering. The only drawback of triplex facades is the high price.

On a note! The strength of frame facades is also affected by the size of the profile - a wide frame will provide more reliable support and protection than a thin edge.

Advantages of glass facades:

Resistance to deformation - do not react to water, tolerate high temperatures well, do not fade or dry out from sun rays.
Hygienic and environmentally friendly - they do not emit toxic substances and do not create a favorable environment for the proliferation of bacteria and fungi.
Using the bending technique, they can take on various bent shapes.

Easy installation (the factory module can be assembled with your own hands), the ability to self-replacement if the façade is damaged.
Wide design possibilities thanks to the huge range of colors of laminated films and other methods of decoration - photo printing, matting, sandblasting of various designs and lighting effects.

The lighting perfectly complements framed facades with frosted glass

Illumination - a practical and effective decor for glass facades

Any design can be applied to glass using photo printing.

In addition to its questionable strength, glass has several more important disadvantages: it requires constant maintenance, because even on a matte surface splashes and fingerprints are clearly visible, and the price of framed facades made of reliable triplex or tempered material is much higher than analogues from MDF.

Important! For glass facades, special fittings must be used - closers, handles, hinges and the aluminum frame itself is mounted either through a thin elastic gasket or by adhesive. This is done to ensure that the contact of the glass with the component materials is minimal, otherwise the facade may crack when the metal is heated or cooled.

The most practical coating options

Despite the beauty and airiness of glass cabinets, the market leaders for framed facades are MDF and chipboard. And for these materials, the quality of the external coating is extremely important.

The most practical solutions are:

Various films

Protection wood boards a layer of PVC or artificial veneer increases moisture resistance. But all these coatings have several common disadvantages: over time they fade in the sun, are easily damaged mechanically and are practically impossible to restore (even if the scratches are treated with wax or painted over, the appearance of the facades leaves much to be desired). But such films allow you to imitate various expensive materials, decorate facades with patina, all kinds of patterns, and ornaments behind minimum price.

Film finishing of kitchen furniture

Heat resistant plastic

Heat-resistant plastic for the kitchen in an aluminum frame - the most good decision from a practicality point of view. The coating, rolled into several layers, adheres tightly to the slab material and becomes an excellent protection against the effects of water and high temperatures. In addition, the plastic is perfectly cleaned from cooking waste without the risk of peeling, does not fade from ultraviolet radiation and has many options color design for any interior.

Plastic facades with aluminum profile

Important! Plastic trim also has its own varieties. The most durable and durable coating - HPL plastic - is applied under high pressure and literally grows into the slab. Alternative option– roll CPL – is essentially the same film, only denser and stronger, but it also peels off over time.

Paint and varnish coatings

Several layers of enamel are sprayed onto the façade, sanded and fixed with varnish. Such protection can be applied to facades of any shape and texture, but the most popular are perfectly smooth panels, the lines of which are emphasized with gloss, metallic shine, practical matte tone or color-changing tints (chameleon effect). But the paint fades over time, the varnish wears off, and choosing suitable shade almost impossible for restoration. In addition, such a coating is susceptible not only to scratches, but also to chips.

Let's summarize. The most inexpensive and short-lived coatings are films, but they have the largest selection of colors and various imitations. Enamels are spectacular, but expensive and impractical. That's why best option, in terms of wear resistance, for the kitchen - plastic in an aluminum frame - photo various designs enclosed:

Color solutions for framed facades

For kitchens decorated in a discreet manner classic style or cozy country style, you can choose frame facades made of MDF with imitation wood. But for such interiors you will have to paint the aluminum profile to match the color of the base material - still modern metal does not harmonize well with rustic or historical styles. But for high-tech, techno, modern or minimalism - it is ideal, especially in combination with glass or glossy coatings.

The Lados-Furniture factory produces aluminum frame furniture facades in any size with inserts of patterned and transparent glass, painted with enamels and with photo printing. Frame aluminum facades can be equipped as home furniture, as well as furniture for office and trade.

Our warehouse program includes more than 30 types of different glasses: transparent, transparent clarified, transparent bronze, transparent black, as well as with frosted designs and ornamental patterns. The patterns of patterned glass can be either geometric (stripes, checks, squares) or arbitrary (abstractions, floral patterns) designs. Such glasses look especially advantageous in inserts in the “Narrow Frame” and in the “Wide Frame No. 1”.

FURNITURE FACADES FROM ALUMINUM PROFILES WITH FILM GLASSES,
PAINTED AND WITH PHOTO PRINTING

Aluminum facades-frames can act as the main equipment of the entire furniture set if glass painted with enamels is inserted into them. Such products will look especially impressive if they are equipped with facades with an insert of glass, painted with several contrasting or, conversely, matching enamel decors.

Traditionally, transparent, colorless glasses are subject to painting. But if we paint any patterned glass with any enamel decor, we will get a very original glossy surface with a pronounced matted pattern, and the darker the enamel decor, the more clearly expressed the pattern.

Please note that the Lados-Furniture company has its own proprietary collection of interior decorative enamels, which was created by our designers based on many years of studying consumer demand, and which you will certainly appreciate. This collection consists of more than 250 “unicolors”, large, small, sparkling and pearlescent “metallics” and “chameleons”.

Patterned seamless designs are printed in any color you need and overlaid with any contrasting enamel decor, which you can choose from our stock program, RAL, NCS systems, or any other international color standard.

By using furniture glass facades in aluminum profiles, you can create sets decorated with interior photo printing. Such furniture will fully meet the taste of the Customer, and will also resonate with the rest of the design of the room or house.

Interior continuous photo printing can be done on one or several doors of the product, or as a general picture on all the doors of the top, or even both tiers of the furniture set.

Painted glass and glass with patterned photo printing look great in the “Wide Frame No. 1” and in the “Wide Frame No. 2”. In order to create a kitchen or other cabinet furniture with one general layout pattern on the glass of aluminum framed facades, it is recommended to use “Wide Frame No. 2”.

The combination of glass and metal in interior design is very relevant today. These materials are an important component of any urban or industrial design. Urban style lets you into your home Big city, combining the finishing textures of any home with the textures of city streets. She brings clear lines, graphic designs, frosted and clear glass to the interior, metal parts and bright colors.
