Visual appearance
Styling White gloss kitchens are styled to create a very sophisticated look with clean lines. They are used in fitted kitchens and can make your kitchen appear very contemporary. White is a very versatile colour to be used in the interior décor and can complement a range of colours to create varying degree of contrast. You can create a dramatic effect by combining the white gloss counter-tops and cabinets with a coloured backsplash. White kitchens appear very hygienic and the white colour also has a calming effect. Spacious look The excellent reflective quality of the high gloss kitchen combined with the colour white can brighten up the kitchen and make it appear roomier. Seamless designs White gloss kitchens can be fitted in seamless runs. This is advantageous since there are no joints between different pieces and the surfaces have a smooth, uninterrupted appearance. Curves The acrylic used to create white gloss kitchens can be thermo-formed. This means that white kitchen units can be moulded into different shapes and curves. Curves in kitchens may be used to wrap around an opening, at corners, at the end of a unit or at a breakfast bar. Curved designs can also soften the appearance of the kitchen. Functionally, the rounded design does not pose an accidental hazard to people as sharp corners do.
Resistance to moisture
The acrylic resin of the white gloss kitchen is very well-suited for use in moist environments. Kitchen surfaces are often prone to spills and splattering. They are also subjected to humid conditions like steam. Since acrylic does not absorb moisture, it does not deform. This dimensional stability ensures that there is no need for repairs or replacement.
Solid colour
The manufacturing process is such that the colour is continuous through the body of the material. This means that the material of white gloss kitchens can be cut or moulded without worrying about exposing a different colour or surface underneath. Colour is retained even if the surface is scratched and these can be polished to a shine. With gloss white kitchens, you need not worry about repainting or refinishing. No touch-ups are required. You can get a contemporary, stylised look at low maintenance with a white gloss kitchen.
