Wood rules! That's because:
Wooden furniture is synonymous with kitchen interiors. Below-the-counter cabinets, dinner-table sets, island bars… they are all mostly wooden. Your food pantry will make a worthy addition to your kitchen.
You can adorn wood with countless finishes that will fit any kitchen décor like a second skin. Staining, French polish, lacquer, and oil paint are some common methods.
Durability. For its reasonable cost, wood lasts as long as you want it to last
Wood interacts well with food. From toothpicks to vegetable chopping boards, wood is preferred in kitchens over other materials. Hence, having a wooden food pantry also gives you a scientific reason.
