Custom Factory Grey Bathroom Wall Cabinet
Custom Factory Grey Bathroom Wall Cabinet
This cabinet is designed for installation in industrial or commercial washroom environments where moisture resistance, dimensional stability, and ease of maintenance are required. The unit consists of a powder‑coated steel frame, a melamine‑faced particleboard core, and a factory‑applied grey finish that matches RAL 7047.
Material Composition and Construction
The carcass uses 18 mm thick, E1‑grade particleboard bonded with a urea‑formaldehyde resin that meets EN 120 classification for low formaldehyde emission. All exposed edges are sealed with 0.5 mm PVC edge banding to prevent water ingress. The frame is fabricated from 1.2 mm cold‑rolled steel, treated with a zinc‑phosphate pretreatment before electro‑static powder coating in a grey hue (RAL 7047) with a film thickness of 80 µm ±10 µm.
Dimensional Flexibility
Standard module widths are 400 mm, 500 mm, and 600 mm, with a fixed height of 720 mm and depth of 200 mm. Custom lengths can be achieved by joining modules using concealed cam locks; the overall assembly tolerances are ±0.5 mm on width and ±0.3 mm on height. Door overlays are 16 mm thick with a 2 mm reveal, allowing for concealed hinge installation.
Finish Options and Surface Performance
The grey finish is a matte polyester powder coating rated for 500 hours salt‑spray resistance (ASTM B117) and 1000 hours UV exposure without perceptible color shift (ΔE < 2). Surface hardness measured by pencil test reaches 2H, providing resistance to scratches from typical cleaning implements. The interior shelves are laminated with a 0.3 mm melamine overlay that resists staining from common bathroom chemicals.
Typical Applications
These cabinets are specified for factory worker washrooms, laboratory changing areas, and food‑processing facility restrooms where frequent wash‑down cycles occur. The combination of non‑corrosive frame and low‑emit board satisfies hygiene standards such as ISO 22716 for cosmetics manufacturing and NSF/ANSI 51 for food‑zone equipment.
Quality Control Checkpoints
- Incoming particleboard tested for formaldehyde emission (EN 717‑1) – target ≤0.1 ppm.
- Steel frame coating thickness verified with magnetic induction gauge (±5 µm).
- Edge band adhesion measured by peel test – minimum 1.2 N/mm.
- Finished assembly subjected to 10 kg static load on shelves for 24 h – deflection ≤0.5 mm.
- Final visual inspection under 500 lux illumination for color uniformity and surface defects.
Packaging and Shipping
Each cabinet is wrapped in 0.15 mm polyethylene film, placed inside a five‑wall corrugated carton with 12 mm flute, and secured with polyester strapping. Cartons are marked with handling symbols (keep dry, this side up) and include a QR code linking to the installation manual. Palletized loads accommodate up to 30 units per pallet, with a maximum stack height of 1.8 m.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can dimensions be customized? Yes. Width, height, and depth can be adjusted within the limits outlined in the table above; custom lengths are achieved by modular joining.
What information is required before quotation? Required inputs include overall width, height, depth, door style, finish colour (RAL/NCS), shelf configuration, and any special accessories such as locks or ventilation grilles.
What materials are available for the carcass? Standard is E1 particleboard; optional upgrades include moisture‑resistant MR board or marine‑grade plywood upon request.
How is quality inspected? Each unit undergoes the checkpoint list shown earlier; test reports are available on request.
What packaging methods are available? Standard is poly‑film + corrugated carton; optional wooden crate or heat‑shrink pallet wrap for export.
How are export shipments protected? Cartons are placed on ISPM‑15 compliant pallets, corner‑protected, and strapped; a moisture barrier liner can be added.
What is the typical production lead time? Standard modules ship in 10‑12 working days after drawing approval; custom configurations add 5‑7 days.
How are samples arranged? A sample door panel or full‑scale mock‑up can be sent via express courier; costs are credited against the first order.
