Quality
The quality of our product come from design. Good design is not only the look, feel and style of the final product but also the design of the processes which enable it.
Our commitment to quality made us one of the first in our industry to become third party certified by the Woodmark Quality System - the first quality management specifically designed for the wood products manufacturing industry. This certification reviews all materials and standard operating procedures and is audited yearly to ensure quality standards are being met. As a valued client at AyA Kitchens, you can trust our knowledgeable team of experts to consistently anticipate your needs & follow through with attention to detail to fulfill your dreams.
MANUFACTURING
All AyA’s cabinets are dowel constructed for a strong, sturdy and perfectly square cabinet, every time. Aya’s just-in-time manufacturing philosophy allows us to offer fully integrated veneer finished ends and colour matched edge banding on the face of every cabinet. The result: seamless colour, inside and out. It also means real choice – white or maple interiors and no-added urea formaldehyde particle board or plywood options.
AyA manufactures all of its wood doors in-house to ensure the highest possible quality standards. Premium oak, maple and cherry components are assembled into over 30 different door styles, from the very traditional to ultra contemporary. With a capacity of over 1000 doors per day, and thousands of door style, species, colour and size combinations, AyA has fused fine craftsmanship with the best of modern manufacturing
finishing
AyA’s sophisticated on line finishing system ensures the highest level of consistency in the application of our finishes while radically reducing waste. Only low VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) finishes are used by AyA to ensure a healthy work and home environment. AyA’s exclusive UV cured water-based top coat further eliminates emissions and results in a more resilient finish that is less prone to fading and discolouring. Exquisite hand finishes round out the broad selection of finishes offered by AyA.
KCMA Certification
AyA Kitchens and Baths is proud to have earned the KCMA Certification Seal and Environmental Stewardship Program Certification.
The Kitchen Cabinet Manufacturers Association Certification Program assures the specifier or user of kitchen cabinets and bath vanities that the cabinet bearing the blue and white seal complies with the rigorous standards set by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and sponsored by the Kitchen Cabinet Manufacturers Association (KCMA).
The KCMA Certification Program is open to all cabinet manufacturers. Manufacturers may certify one, several, or all of their cabinet lines. Because of this option, only those lines certified are listed in the annual KCMA Directory of Certified Cabinet Manufacturers.
