Eco Friendly Cabinet Doors

Green Cabinet Door Options

WalzCraft offers over 110 Wood Species / Grade combinations for Green Cabinet Doors. Choosing to use a Wood Species / Grade that allows for the use of natural characteristics is an easy environmentally friendly decision. Below are several standard options from WalzCraft that can make your next project greener.

WalzCraft Natural Grades

Products built with Natural Grade material allow WalzCraft to use wood that may include a greater percentage of natural characteristics common within that wood species, such as heartwood and sap.

WalzCraft offers Natural Grade options at a discount to Select Grade material due to production and yield efficiencies. We recommend finishing Natural Grade Products with a medium to dark stain color.

WalzCraft Rustic Grades

Products built with Rustic Grade material call for the use of knots and burs, which are natural characteristics found in every hardwood. In most residential and commercial applications, knots are considered a defect, meaning the knotty material is wasted and subsequently more material is required for the application.

WalzCraft Value/Budget & Paint Grades

WalzCraft products constructed with Value / Budget Grade wood allow for greater efficiencies and material usage by allowing us to build structurally sound products from wood that aesthetically does not meet our Select or Natural Grade standards. We offer our Budget / Value Grade Wood Species options at a discount for their significant efficiencies and greater yield.

Center panels for solid wood cabinet doors are constructed using a combination of narrow staves of heartwood, sapwood, and recycled lumber adhered together with formaldehyde-free glue.

Eucalyptus – Red Grandis is a plantation-grown quality hardwood with excellent consistency in color, grain, and workability. It ranges in color from light to medium reddish-brown. It can also be finished to resemble other wood species, such as Mahogany or Cherry. This wood species is a great green design option and well-suited for custom Cabinetry, Furniture, and Millwork.

Order Your Project Pre-Finished from WalzCraft

Our customized finishing system allows us to safely apply materials in a self-contained environment. The result is what is famously known as a “WalzCraft Finish.”

Quality is a significant component of producing a green product, which is why WalzCraft continues to use a conversion-based varnish top coat. Though it is our goal to convert to a water-based UV-cured finish, our own experiments and samples have yet to produce a product that meets our quality expectations. Using any material of lesser quality would shorten the lifespan of our products and subsequently contribute to more waste.
