Modular bathroom furniture is a variety of cabinets, for example a hanging cabinet, mounted on the wall, thus saving space on the floor. This is a cabinet under the washbasin as a lower modular cabinet - standing or hanging. These are also very interesting mirror cabinets and corner cabinets, which can come in different variants, for example an open cabinet or a closed cabinet. These are also columns and posts, high and narrow, thanks to which they maximize the use of vertical space.

Furniture board and its practicality in the bathroom

When looking for bathroom furniture, there is no doubt that it is worth considering modular cabinets. However, before choosing the right solution, let's consider the type of furniture board used to create this type of element. It has a very practical meaning if we are planning to equip the bathroom, valued for its versatility and aesthetics. Most often made of materials such as MDF or HDF, it is resistant to moisture because it is covered with special protective layers.

Regardless of the style of our interior, it is easy to match, as it delights with a variety of patterns and colors. What is also important - it is easy to keep clean. Simply wipe it with a damp cloth to quickly remove dirt. This furniture board is very durable and strong, which is why it fits into any bathroom.

How to choose a modular cabinet for a small bathroom?

In a small bathroom, you need a good plan to organize everything properly. It is no different when choosing a cabinet for such a room, so before choosing, you should consider a few key factors.

When choosing cabinets, make sure that they do not dominate the space too much. Let them be functional together with shelves, but their size must be optimal. A good option in such a case is to choose narrow, tall cabinets and shelves. They can be placed next to the sink, which is a practical and comfortable solution. Another equally good option is to choose hanging cabinets that do not take up space on the floor. An additional advantage is to order a hanging cabinet with a mirror, thanks to which you can optically enlarge the space.

The same can be said about the assembly of furniture in the style of columns and posts, because thanks to their form they leave a lot of space in width. The same is true for corner cabinets, because they allow the use of unused, often unorganized space. What else works? Definitely modular cabinets in light colors and mirror surfaces. They will optically enlarge the room. A minimalist furniture design is also an excellent choice. The worst are heavy, massive furniture that "overwhelms" a small interior.

What is better for the bathroom - chipboard or MDF?

Modular cabinets are made of various materials - the most popular are MDF and chipboard. In order to choose the best option, we should know which of these materials is more suitable for the bathroom.

It is also durable, which means it is not susceptible to mechanical damage. And if that were not enough, it impresses with its appearance, because it has a smooth, high-quality surface finish. At the same time, it is very versatile and easy to process.

Chipboard is a bit worse in this respect, mainly because it is less resistant to moisture, which is essential in a bathroom. It is also less durable and susceptible to damage, especially compared to MDF. On the other hand, it has its advantages, especially its relatively low price. It is also lighter than MDF. Let's also remember that some brands, such as Cersanit, use special waterproof chipboard. In the next paragraph, we will recommend just such a model.
