Melamína.- Es un laminado plástico adherido a un tablero de fibra de madera. Los hay en una muy amplia variedad de colores, patrones lisos y con diseños simulando distintos tipos de maderas y en acabados de alto brillo a mate. Los cantos o bordes del tablero son recubiertos con una cinta del mismo material, PVC o aluminio; pueden ser del mismo color o diferente creando efectos para acentuar los bordes. Siendo láminas no flexibles adheridas a un tablero rígido, los frentes siempre son planos. Estos materiales son muy limpios, resistentes a la humedad y calor moderados e ideales para diseños contemporáneos y minimalistas. Uno de sus mayores atributos es su bajo precio en relación a otras opciones, sin embargo hay una gran diversidad de fabricantes por lo que no es de extrañar que materiales parecidos tengan variantes considerables en precio dependiendo de su calidad. Los muebles fabricados en serie por lo general utilizan melamína de baja calidad y consecuentemente poco durable; es recomendable el invertir un poco más en mejores materiales.
