Does all my cabinetry need to be 2PAC?

2PAC is a hardened paint finish that can be applied to cupboard doors and drawers.

Does all your cabinetry need to be 2PAC - a question we're often asked by clients. In short, no.

Not all your cabinetry needs to be finished with 2PAC, particularly if you're designing a kitchen that incorporates different shades of colour and finishes.

The kitchen cabinetry pictured above has been designed with a combination of both laminate and 2PAC finishes. Overhead cupboards have a 2PAC finish in Dulux Silkwort to enable an exact colour match with the paint on the feature VJ panelling to the island bench. The remainder of the kitchen cabinetry has been selected as a laminate in Polytec Natural White, to keep costs to a minimum. Kitchen designed and built by Kalka. Photography by Cathy Schusler.
