Plywood kitchens are beautiful, durable and sustainable. People looking for plywood kitchens often come across two main problems:
- Finding a professional to work with who has the skills and knowledge to design and manufacture using plywood. Not all plywoods are equal!
- Affordability. Custom plywood kitchens have a premium price because of the cost of materials and labour involved.
A Pezzo (pet-zoh) kitchen solves both of these problems. Pezzo kitchens use only quality, furniture grade plywood. And the unique Pezzo design uses less materials, so it is more affordable than a standard plywood kitchen.
Because Pezzo is easily transportable, it is available across Australia.

- Next, you’ll need to install drawer runners, hinges and other fittings and fixtures.
- Then you’ll put together the base cabinetry. Start with the first end panel. Then the next panel. And then install rails at the top back and top front. Base cabinetry installation continues like this until complete.
- Installation of wall cabinetry comes after base cabinetry installation. Wall cabinetry uses a back rail installation system.
- Bench tops / drawers are doors are installed last.
