Kitchen cabinets are one of the largest sources of formaldehyde emissions in today’s homes. Standard cabinets are made of particleboard, which can offgas significant amounts of formaldehyde if urea-formaldehyde is used as a binder. Cabinets made from a non-formaldehyde-based binder such as polyurethane improve indoor air quality and are widely available.
Straw is an agricultural waste product.
Solid woods such as cherry, maple oak, alder or bamboo are great alternatives to particleboard.
