Material Integrity & Precision Engineering
Cubic outdoor kitchens are engineered to meet the structural and climatic demands of contemporary architectural and garden design projects.
Designed for permanent, year-round exterior installation in the UK but expert German engineering, the system avoids traditional vulnerabilities by eliminating exposed stainless steel or untreated timber.
​​
Every module is fabricated using non-porous, UV-stable surfaces bonded to a high-strength, weatherproof composite carcass. The result is a monolithic aesthetic that resists thermal shock, moisture ingress, and UV degradation.
Specify any RAL colour to align with the primary building palette. For projects requiring tactile warmth, designs can incorporate sustainably sourced, 365-day exterior-rated lamella timber cladding or slatted drawer fronts.
For practice workflows, the Cubic digital Designer generates precise layouts, 4K visual assets, CAD/SKP files, and an immediate budgetary figure within minutes - no waiting for drawings or quotations.
Specification & Construction
Our fabrication methodology replaces high-maintenance materials with stable, low-porosity surfaces designed for thermal and mechanical endurance:
​
-
Surface Options: 6mm architectural porcelain, ceramic, or Dekton ultra-compact surfaces for seamless mitred worktops and cladding.
-
Carcass Construction: Specially coated engineered wood providing a high strength-to-weight ratio, structural stability and zero corrosion risk.
-
Vermin-Resistant Sealing: Integrated silicone seals, dedicated LPG cylinder ventilation, and precision-engineered construction ensuring cabinets are waterproof.

Technical FAQ
Why specify porcelain and engineered wood over metal cabinetry?
Porcelain and Cubic Material, or engineered wood, offer zero water absorption, UV stability, and high scratch resistance. They do not warp, rust, bleach, or require annual re-sealing, ensuring long-term dimensional stability in the UK's exposed environments.
​​
How do the materials perform under freeze-thaw conditions?
With near-zero porosity, moisture cannot penetrate the surface layer, avoiding condenstion. This allows utensil to be stored 365-days and eliminates internal icing, preventing structural issues during the heat-freeze-thaw cycle.
