Discuss your wardrobe materialsWhat "termite-proof" means for a wardrobe
"Termite-proof" can mean different things depending on the material and supplier. Decofy uPVC wardrobe panels are termite-proof, backed by a 20-year warranty covering discolouration and degradation. For any other material, ask the supplier directly what makes it termite-resistant and get that confirmed in writing — rather than relying on a general material label.
Common wardrobe material options
| Material | What to confirm with the supplier |
|---|---|
| uPVC (Decofy) | Termite-proof and 100% waterproof, with a 20-year warranty covering discolouration and degradation |
| Plywood and other board materials | Specifications and performance vary by material, grade, finish and supplier. Confirm the exact specification and warranty before deciding. |
What else should you compare?
Termite resistance is one factor worth comparing. Ask about storage layout, finish and hardware quality, and how these were considered in the design. Compare these factors, not just the base material, in the full uPVC vs plywood comparison.
