The application of moisture-proof boards mainly focuses on three high-humidity spaces: the kitchen, the bathroom, and the balcony, as well as the entire house cabinets in regions with southern dampness and rainy seasons.
Essentially, it prevents moisture in the air, not direct water immersion. The moisture-proof ability is jointly determined by the base material, adhesive, and decorative edge treatment. One should not only look at the word "moisture-proof" but also consider the other factors.
?? Main application scenarios
Kitchen: Water vapor is generated from washing vegetables and boiling water, so the cabinet bodies and the bottom plates under the water sink are the key areas. Choose multi-layer boards or moisture-proof particleboard.
Bathroom: Avoid using wooden boards in the wet areas and use professional moisture-proof multi-layer boards for bathroom cabinets and washbasin cabinets in the dry areas.
Balcony: The moisture from laundry and drying, combined with sunlight exposure, poses a double test for the boards. It is recommended to use moisture-proof base materials.
Southern humid regions: During the return south wind and rainy season, even the cabinets in bedrooms and living rooms are recommended to prioritize moisture-proof base materials with good performance.
Storage scenarios: There is another type, the plastic moisture-proof board (made of HDPE/PP materials), used for padding the bottom of warehouse goods to prevent moisture. Its static load can reach 4 tons, and it is completely different from home decoration boards.
