PlyLab // furniture / kitchens PlyLab is Wellington's plywood furniture and kitchen specialist. We build inset plywood kitchens and furniture, made in Wellington and shipped nationwide.

Furniture-grade plywood, clean lines, and real durability — crafted for life in Aotearoa. PlyLab provides the Wellington region with sustainable furniture and kitchen design, manufacture and installation. Furniture grade plywood is the ideal material to add warmth and character to your spaces, turning a house into a home. It is the ideal material for high usage areas, wet areas and applications that require a build once, last forever approach. Kitchens, sculleries, book cases, laundries, vanities, entertainment units, we can help. We only use FSC certified, furniture grade plywood. Futura HPL is an 18mm/13 ply birch plywood with a German egger laminate that will outperform any MDF based product in sustainablity, durability and looks.

A fridge needs room to open, too.

This French-door fridge shows the trade-off between a flush look, side-panel spacing and positioning the doors forward of the cabinetry. The appliance and joinery need to be planned together.
