Furniture Panel; Fully Finished

Are you looking for a cabinet with a finished top layer? Then there are two options at TOSIZE Furniture: Natural oak furniture panel and black oak furniture panel. These melamine-coated panels have a scratch-resistant and wear-resistant surface. They are not indestructible, but can withstand quite a bit. Dirt and bacteria are less likely to settle in the smooth material, thanks to the hard surface.

Easy to Clean

Cleaning the furniture is easy with regular cleaning agents and a microfiber or cleaning cloth. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents or cloths with abrasive effects, as these can damage the material.
