Kitchen wrapping: how it works, from photos to fitting
Having your kitchen wrapped starts with photos and a price indication. If the price fits, we visit you at home. It ends with a kitchen that looks new again: 1–2 days for a small kitchen, 3–4 days for a medium or large one. We work carefully, not in a rush. Below you'll find exactly how we work: on site or in our own workshop, and what happens at every step.
What is kitchen wrapping?
Kitchen wrapping is applying high-quality interior film over your existing kitchen doors, panels and edges. The film bonds tightly to the surface and gives your kitchen a completely new colour, texture or finish — while the cabinets themselves, the carcasses, simply stay in place.
Nothing is demolished and nothing is replaced; only the visible surface changes.
Who is it a good fit for?
Kitchen wrapping is a great solution when your kitchen is still structurally sound but looks outdated. It's also a smart choice for rental homes — you refresh the look without a costly renovation — and for anyone renovating on a budget without giving up on the result.
Not a good fit? With damaged, swollen or loose fronts, we honestly advise against wrapping — film can't fix an underlying problem, and the result won't hold up. Not sure? ReadCan my kitchen be wrapped? to check your own fronts.
Two working methods
Depending on your kitchen and planning, we work in one of two ways. We'll discuss which one fits best during the home visit.
Wrapping on site
On an agreed day, we wrap your kitchen completely at your home. Handy if you'd rather not be without any components temporarily, or if the fronts can't easily be removed.
Wrapping in our workshop (our preference)
After the home visit, we remove the loose fronts and panels and take them to our own workshop on the Noordermeerweg in Creil. There we wrap them under ideal, dust-free conditions. We then bring them back and fit everything at your home in about 3 hours; fixed parts that can't come with us — such as side panels attached to the cabinet — we finish on site.
How does it work?
Photos and price indication
You send 3–4 photos of your kitchen via WhatsApp (or the form) and receive a price indication incl. VAT.
Home visit
If the price fits, we visit you with all film samples. You choose colour and texture, we measure everything precisely and you get your final fixed price the same day. The visit takes about an hour.
Preparation and cleaning
Handles come off and the doors are thoroughly degreased and cleaned, so the film bonds properly and stays put.
Wrapping
The film is applied tightly and air-free to doors, panels and edges.
Edge finishing
Edges, corners and recessed frame doors are carefully finished for a seamless result.
Handover
Handles go back on, everything is checked — your kitchen is ready to use straight away, no drying time.

Can kitchen film be removed again later?
Yes, it can be professionally removed or overwrapped; on smooth, laminated fronts usually without damaging the surface underneath.
Wrapping or a new kitchen?
In most cases wrapping is the better value: up to 70% cheaper than a new kitchen, as long as the cabinets themselves are still in good shape. Read Wrap your kitchen, or buy a new one? for a full comparison.
What are the disadvantages of kitchen wrapping?
Film isn't heat-resistant, can scratch when cutting, and has seams on corners — largely the same limitations as a new kitchen's factory finish. Read Kitchen wrapping: the disadvantages, honestly for the full picture.
