When you come to wall bound cabinets, may it be for the kitchen, bedrooms or even the bathrooms, we need to know that such cabinets made of manufactured wood products may contain glues high in formaldehyde (medium density fibre bord, particle board, hardwood plywood), and coated with a very potent “acid catalysed” formaldehyde finish.
