Starboard Waterproof Cabinets

Upgrade your outdoor or indoor kitchen with premium Starboard cabinets, designed for superior durability and long-lasting performance. Made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), Starboard is 100% waterproof, UV-resistant, and impervious to rot, warping, or fading—making it the perfect choice for any environment.

What is Starboard?

Starboard is a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) material designed for durability in outdoor, marine, and high-moisture environments. Originally developed for boat construction, it is now widely used for outdoor cabinetry, furniture, and other applications where moisture and weather resistance are essential.

Properties of Starboard

  1. 100% Waterproof – Unlike wood or MDF, Starboard does not absorb moisture, making it resistant to swelling, warping, or rotting.

  2. UV & Weather Resistant – Engineered to withstand prolonged sun exposure, heavy rain, and extreme temperatures without fading, cracking, or becoming brittle.

  3. Rot & Mold Resistant – Because it is non-porous, it does not promote mold, mildew, or bacterial growth.

  4. Impact & Scratch-Resistant – Tough and durable, it holds up well against heavy use and outdoor conditions.

  5. Corrosion & Rust-Proof – Unlike metal, Starboard will never rust or corrode, making it ideal for coastal and humid environments.

  6. Low Maintenance – No need for painting, sealing, or refinishing; simple cleaning with soap and water keeps it looking new.

  7. Non-Toxic & Food-Safe – Safe for use in food preparation areas and does not release harmful chemicals.

  8. Easily Workable – Can be cut, drilled, and shaped like wood, allowing for custom designs and installations.

Why is Starboard Perfect for Outdoor Use?

  • Weatherproof Durability – Unlike wood, which can crack or rot, Starboard remains strong in any climate.

  • No Maintenance Required – No repainting, sealing, or repairs needed over time.

  • Long-Lasting Investment – Outperforms traditional materials, providing years of reliable use without deterioration.

  • Versatile & Stylish – Available in different colors and textures to match any outdoor or indoor design.

Because of these superior qualities, Starboard is an excellent material for outdoor kitchens, patio cabinets, furniture, and marine applications. It ensures a long-lasting, maintenance-free, and stylish solution for any space exposed to the elements.

Hardware

Stainless steel is a durable, corrosion-resistant material used in a variety of applications. The numbers 304, 305, and 316 refer to different grades of stainless steel, each with unique properties suited for specific uses:

  1. 304 Stainless Steel – This is the most commonly used stainless steel grade, known for its excellent resistance to corrosion and good formability. It contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel. It is widely used in kitchen equipment, appliances, food processing equipment, and architectural structures.

  2. 305 Stainless Steel – This grade is similar to 304, but with a higher nickel content (about 10-13%) which improves its resistance to oxidation and corrosion, especially in environments where welding or forming is required. It's used in applications like food equipment, hardware, and chemical containers where corrosion resistance is essential.

  3. 316 Stainless Steel – This grade contains molybdenum (2-3%), which significantly enhances its resistance to corrosion, especially in chloride-rich environments. 316 is highly resistant to rust and pitting and is commonly used in marine environments, chemical processing, medical instruments, and high-end kitchenware.

In summary, 304 is used for most general-purpose applications, 305 for more specialized corrosion-resistant needs, and 316 for environments requiring extreme corrosion resistance, such as marine and medical applications.
