For Kitchen , do not opt for MDF in terms of durability, you can select laminated plywood or BWP ply for kitchen.

For wardrobe, you can select MDF / Laminated Plywood as per your budget, there has been seen bending issue in plywood shutters , go for blockboard (for shutters) to avoid bending issue.

Hello again AK,

3 and 4 are same thing. In our opinion, for 80-90% of your requirements it can be done in laminate/veneer on ply for 10% of an interior you may also need MDF/Wood work for specialized decoration.

1 - In the terms of cost

Solid Wood >>> Laminated Plywood > MDF

2- In terms of durability

Solid Wood >> Laminated Plywood >>> MDF

3- In terms of final finish

Solid Wood > MDF > Laminated Plywood

Decide based on your preferences,

Thanks,

Nitin

If you have solid wood as an option don't even think twice, every others are cheaper/fake substitutes. Go for the real thing if you can afford it.

1. solid wood
Better used in bed cottage, door , window frames and dining table.

2. MDF
light weight non water usage places with good lamination applicable.

3. laminated plywood
quick working cupboard
pasting time reduce but cost is very high.
Main advantage is machine pasting good finish.

4. Plywood + lamination /mica
Major category
Water proof plywood (Bwp /BWR) grade 710
commercial Moisture resistance (MR) grade 303

For kitchen
where ever water usage use water proof plywood with 1mm laminate good pasting used
maximum base unit with fitting zone.

Non usage water places wall unit and loft unit use MR grade ply wood no need BWR and Bwp plywood.
Also reduce cost.

Wardrobe
Use Mr grade plywood .
main consider door plywood no bend and double side laminate for stability.
